Application Areas

Temas features an integrated multi-sensor architecture, motor control, an open API, and a mechanical interface for easy integration into a wide range of applications – from robotic systems to smart home projects.

Robotics

Temas combines a mechanical interface with a multi-sensor architecture – including visual camera, ToF camera, and laser – plus fast and precise motors. The integrated single-cable PoE solution ensures efficient power and data transmission. The open API enables seamless integration into mobile robotic systems and collaborative cobots.

3D Mapping & Surveying

Tailored flexibility: Two powerful options for precise mapping – the laser for large-scale applications and the ToF camera for impressive, detailed live point clouds – perfect for dynamic close-range scenarios.

Research & Education

Experience digital education: Visualize live experiments, integrate measurement data seamlessly into labs or lectures, and make physical phenomena – such as free-fall, pendulum, or velocity experiments – interactive and tangible.

Artificial Intelligence Icon

Artificial Intelligence

The multi-sensor setup generates rich training data – combining RGB images, depth data, and geometry. Especially by fusing ToF and laser data with visual camera images, detection accuracy can be significantly enhanced.

Virtual Reality Headset

In combination with a VR headset, our sensor system makes complex environments immersively tangible in real time – ideal for interactive visualization, hands-on training, and remote collaboration in research, industry, and education.

Smart Home & IoT

Our sensor system captures spaces, objects, and motion in the smart home precisely in 3D and real time. It detects changes and lays the foundation for intelligent automation, adaptive security systems, and enhanced living comfort. Power and data transmission are efficiently handled via a single cable – thanks to integrated Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) technology.

Robotics

Robotic systems benefit from a multi-sensor architecture, precise and fast motor control, open hardware integration, and seamless connectivity via PoE and open API.

  • Open hardware integration: We provide an STL download of a 3D model for easy mechanical integration of the sensor system into your own projects.
  • Precise environment detection: The integrated multi-sensor architecture enables detailed 3D capture of the surroundings in real time – essential for navigation and object recognition.
  • Easy integration: Through the open API and single-cable PoE technology.
  • Fast responsiveness: The combination of rapid data processing and precise motor control enables immediate reactions to environmental changes.

Mobile robotic systems benefit from our multi-sensor architecture – including ToF depth data, visual camera, and laser – combined with fast motor control to reliably detect obstacles and navigate safely and autonomously in real time.

Collaborative robots benefit from our multi-sensor architecture with ToF, visual camera, and laser technology, as well as precise motor control, enabling safe, flexible, and responsive real-time collaboration with humans.

TEMAS captures live environment data on a mobile platform.

3D Mapping & Surveying

For 3D mapping, two flexible options are available: the laser for large-scale applications and the ToF camera for detailed live point clouds at close range.

  • Direct export as colored .ply file
  • Laser range up to 40 m
  • ToF camera with dynamic range up to 3.9 m

The laser enables large-scale mappings, seamlessly overlaid with visual camera data for vibrant, detailed color rendering.

The ToF camera allows for high-detail close-range capture with colored rendering via real-time overlay with the visual camera.

About Us

The foundation for our technology was laid in 2019 when we – Dr. Emre Gürdal and Muhammed Tayar – joined forces with a shared vision for digital environmental sensing. In 2025, the official company was founded with the goal of combining precision, openness, and versatility in one compact system. Our technology combines an integrated multi-sensor architecture, consisting of visual camera, ToF camera, and laser, with fast and precise motor movement. The system is complemented by open interfaces – both mechanical and software (API) – enabling precise 3D mapping and seamless integration into a wide range of applications. Whether in robotics, smart home, mobile platforms, or educational environments: our system generates point clouds in real time, exports them directly in .ply format, and supports both live visualization and immediate post-processing. As an optoelectronic component, our system is ideal for robotics applications and ensures highly precise, real-time environment sensing for safe and efficient navigation.
