Measurement Science Enterprise,

MSE manufactures miniaturized optical instrumentation used to measure flow speed, wall shear, and particle size and concentration for education, research, and industrial applications. The company consists of a core of scientists, senior engineers, and key consultants with extensive experience in optical instrumentation, experimental fluid mechanics, signal processing, system design and engineering, and field campaigns. Our customers include universities, research institutions, governments, and industries. Collaborations include scientists at Caltech, UCLA and JPL. MSE specializes in miniaturizing optical sensors with three universal characteristics: minimum size, minimum weight, and minimum power consumption. The miniLDV, ultraLDV, microPro, microV, and microS are the smallest, lightest, and lowest-power-consumption sensors currently available for optical speed measurement. All three sensor types can measure speed as well as direction, but each is tuned for a specific measurement distance. The ultraLDV, designed for applications where sensitivity and precision are of utmost importance, the 2D miniLDV, a true two-component sensor, the 3D miniLDV, and the Integrated miniLDV, a miniLDV probe with built-in Processing Engine in a package about the size of a text book. “LDV” stands for “Laser Doppler Velocimeter”—but unlike our competitors’, MSE’s probes are extremely easy to use because they do not require any complicated alignment after manufacturing. A miniPIV system is a great complement to the above sensors and offers a wide range of fields of view. The flowLab is a table-top-sized water tunnel, perfect for small research projects, expositions, and classroom demonstrations.
