Sonus Microsystems

Sonus Microsystems is a Vancouver, Canada-based ultrasound technology platform that enables remote diagnostic imaging without the need for patients to visit clinics or hospitals. Sonus Microsystems is developing and commercializing a novel proprietary ultrasound technology that utilizes polymer MEMS sensors to transmit and receive ultrasound waves. Their transducers are powered by innovative polyCMUT technology (which stands for polymer-based capacitive micromachined ultrasound transducers). This advanced method of manufacturing ultrasound transducer arrays involves fabricating thousands of vibrating micro-drums on various types of substrates, delivering superior performance for imaging and testing applications.
