ICS™ – Modular Sensing Units are the core of ICS ™ – Interactive Composite Systems and is a complete range of individual, specialized capacitive circuit to measure physical properties or phenomena like thickness, position, distance, proximity, contamination. Each sensor has specific and distinctive shape and is optimized for a task.

ENGINEERED MULTISENSOR ARRAY
When used in composite components, ICS ™ Modular Sensing Units are tipically clustered to create a dedicated multisensor, made up of a number task specific sensors. The type and arrangements of circuits, and their connections, is custom designed and engineered to suit specific needs.

EASY AND SEAMLESS INTEGRATION
Engraved on a fiberglass layer, ICS™ – Modular Sensing Units ensure easy integration within composites, avoiding delamination and becoming an isolated system. This ensures protection from ruptures, corrosion, humidity, contamination and ease of connection, even with rotating elements.

All components are tested to withstand curing pressures and temperatures.

BUILDING MODULAR AND SCALABLE SENSORIZED SYSTEMS ICS™ – Programmable Amplifiers integrate with ICS™ – Modular Sensing Units to collect and manage data and signals.

TECHNOLOGY THAT MAKES SENSE ICS ™ – Interactive Composite Systems is Loson’s patented technology designed to turn composite components into active sensors, to collect real time operating data.

ICS™ technology is built around a flexible array of task specific sensors, amplifiers, software and services, which can be personalized to suit different measurement needs. This technology offers a modular architecture, using individual sensors to build multisensor architectures, which can also be arranged into multilayer arrays.

FROM CONSULTANCY TO FULL SCALE PRODUCTION
All components can be bought separately for self-integration and assembly by the constructor. Loson can also provide engineering and integration for the system, complete with lamination instructions for self-production or full service consultancy to design and engineer the system, and assistance throughout production and integration phases to ensure optimal functionality and reliability up to turnkey engineering and production of the full, sensorized composite component.

Loson also maintains a continuous cooperation with its clients to monitor feedbacks and develop both technology and resulting products.
