Teledyne Technologies

Teledyne Technologies is a US conglomerate headquartered in Thousand Oaks, California, that following its 2021 acquisition of FLIR Systems became one of the most diversified providers of scientific instrumentation and sensing technology. Teledyne owns a portfolio of brands critical to research including Princeton Instruments (scientific cameras for spectroscopy and microscopy), Photometrics (scientific CMOS cameras for life science imaging), DALSA (industrial machine vision sensors), FLIR (thermal infrared cameras), Teledyne LeCroy (oscilloscopes and protocol analyzers), and e2v (radiation-hardened image sensors and detectors). Princeton Instruments' KURO and BLAZE cameras use back-illuminated deep-depleted CCDs optimized for NIR sensitivity and spectroscopic applications in Raman, photoluminescence, and emission spectroscopy research. Photometrics' Prime BSI and Kinetix scientific CMOS cameras are leading choices for live-cell fluorescence microscopy, providing back-illuminated sensors with the speed necessary for fast calcium imaging and voltage indicators. Teledyne's FLIR Lepton and Tau thermal cores are widely integrated into research instruments measuring temperature distributions in electronics, materials, and biomedical applications. Teledyne CETAC Technologies provides auto-samplers and laser ablation systems for ICP-MS and ICP-OES, enabling spatially resolved elemental analysis of solid specimens. Their Marine Systems division produces acoustic Doppler current profilers used in oceanographic research, while GEOTEK products support sediment core scanning and physical property measurement in geoscience.
