Odd Systems and The Fourth Law launch project to quadruple European thermal sensor output
What happened
Odd Systems and The Fourth Law unveiled Project Foundation, a semiconductor initiative to mass-produce uncooled thermal sensors in Europe and the United States. The project aims to quadruple thermal sensor output in Europe and double it in the US within three years. These sensors, which are microbolometers, are intended for use in drones, cars, factories, and robots.
