Some examples of our custom designs:

Inspectors in Western Canada urgently needed a reliable automatic sensor to measure the height of large trailer rigs in order to ensure they could pass under bridges.

Plaintree was able to develop for them an optical-based height sensor solution in less than a month.

When the Hungarian government needed to update its 1.6 Gigawatt nuclear station, Plaintree Systems (back then Firlan), deployed a wireless solution to help connect a large reactor crane to the main server and the graphic terminals in the control room.

Plaintree's FSO equipment has been compared to a high power infrared flashlight. Ironically, it has been used just for that purpose in the past.

An infrared LED beam can be focused as thin or as wide as necessary, according to the customer's needs.
