Sensors for defense technology
Defense technology places the highest demands on robustness, precision, and safety. IBA develops advanced sensor solutions that are specifically designed to meet the extreme requirements of military applications. Whether in armored vehicles, aircraft, or surveillance systems, our sensors help maximize the operational readiness, safety, and efficiency of military technologies.
Why sensor technology in defense technology?
Modern military systems rely on reliable sensors to operate effectively in extreme and safety-critical environments. In defence technology, sensor solutions play a central role in monitoring and controlling vehicles, systems and equipment. Our solutions enable:
- Position and tilt detection: Precise control of gun turrets, radar systems and weapon platforms.
- Pressure and temperature sensors: Monitoring of hydraulic systems, engines and critical vehicle components.
- Vibration sensors: Early detection of damage and wear in military vehicles and aircraft.
- Environmental sensors: Measurement of environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity and air pressure that influence operational capability.
Areas of application
Our sensor technology is specially designed for military use and offers a wide range of advantages:
- Extreme robustness: Resistant to shock, vibration, dust, moisture and extreme temperatures.
- Highest precision: Ensures accurate measurements even under the most demanding conditions.
- Durability: Designed for use in harsh environments with minimal maintenance requirements.
- Compact design: Enables easy integration into complex, space-critical systems.
- Immediate readiness: Real-time data acquisition and processing support rapid decision-making in the field.
