Space-grade sensing,
brought down to Earth.
REDAR builds lightweight optical payloads that measure greenhouse gases and track moving objects from low-flying drones. Precise, non-intrusive, and built to be affordable.
A dual-use platform, regulation-driven
One optical core across climate, industrial safety and defence, entering markets where measurement is becoming mandatory.
See traction →Compliance-grade measurement
Find and quantify methane leaks and monitor hazardous gas at a fraction of the cost and weight of lab-grade systems.
Explore markets →Integrate our optical core
Work with us on structures, platforms and missions, from industrial integration to space and defence programmes.
Partner with us →One optical core. Three missions.
A single modular optical engine, built largely from off-the-shelf components, reconfigured for several jobs. One research effort serves climate, safety and security.
Greenhouse-gas monitoring
Methane and industrial-emission detection using tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS).
Chemical gas detection
Hazardous-gas detection for industrial safety and civil protection, sharing the same optical core.
Object tracking & early warning
Autonomous aerial tracking of moving targets using a frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) technique.
Regulation and sovereignty are converging.
The market is being created by policy and geopolitics at the same time the technology becomes deployable in the field.
Mandatory methane rules
The EU Methane Regulation requires leak detection and repair and operational monitoring, and favours mobile, drone-based sensing.
European defence autonomy
Rising airspace threats and sovereign-technology funding are accelerating demand for indigenous detection and surveillance.
Field-ready technology
Compact photonics, drone autonomy and machine learning now move space-grade sensing out of the lab and into operations.
One platform, four markets.
The same core serves climate, industry, defence and space, which multiplies the return on a single technology and keeps the whole stack European.
Climate & energy
Methane leak detection for oil & gas, plus waste, biogas and environmental monitoring.
Industrial safety
Hazardous-gas detection and process-safety monitoring at refineries, plants and terminals.
Defence & security
Lightweight, sovereign airborne ISR and counter-drone sensing for European autonomy.
Space & observation
Optical payloads for high-altitude and orbital platforms, pursued with industrial partners.
Dual-use core
One platform across climate, safety and security.
Low-cost & agile
Off-the-shelf parts beat bespoke aerospace hardware.
European & sovereign
Indigenous EU sensing for environment and defence.
Drone-native
Mobile, non-intrusive, source-level measurement.
Backed, contracted, proven in the lab.
Methane sensitivity proven in the laboratory.
Greenhouse-gas payload validated in the lab.
ESA BIC Greece, with initial funding secured.
Greek-built, dual-use, European technology.
Technical depth meets commercial discipline.
Dr. Dimitrios Kokkinos
PhD in optical sensors; instrument design, verification and LIDAR concepts. Former project manager at Airbus. Leads technology and product.
Menelaos Tzagkournis

Join the team.
We are seeking an Electronics Engineer to perform a balanced mix of hands-on laboratory work and electronic system design, with a strong focus on signal processing across analog, digital and FPGA platforms.
Electronics Engineer
Athens, GreeceLaboratory responsibilities
- Set up and configure lab test benches using oscilloscopes, function and arbitrary waveform generators, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers and power supplies.
- Acquire and analyze signals in the time and frequency domains using FFTs, spectral density and statistical methods.
- Debug signal-integrity issues including noise, distortion, jitter, grounding and crosstalk.
- Validate system performance through measurement, calibration and controlled experiments.
- Document lab setups, procedures and test results clearly and reproducibly.
Design responsibilities
- Design analog and mixed-signal circuits for signal conditioning (amplifiers, filters, impedance matching, ADC/DAC interfaces).
- Develop digital signal-processing algorithms (filtering, decimation and interpolation, averaging, FFT-based analysis).
- Implement real-time signal processing on FPGAs using VHDL, Verilog or SystemVerilog.
- Design and integrate FPGA interfaces to ADCs, DACs, sensors and high-speed digital links.
- Support schematic design, component selection and design verification.
Desired skills
- Oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers and data-acquisition systems.
- MATLAB, Python (NumPy/SciPy) or LabVIEW for signal analysis and algorithm development.
- FPGA toolchains and on-chip debugging tools (e.g. ILA, SignalTap).
- Strong understanding of sampling theory, filtering, clocking and timing.
