Living Optics - Company Profile

Living Optics is focused on revolutionizing hyperspectral imaging with its pioneering VIS-NIR snapshot HSI camera. The company's unique approach combines patented optical methods, built-from-scratch neural networks, and a dose of pure maths. By developing technology that enables real-time data capture at video frame rates and access to invisible information, Living Optics is democratizing and miniaturizing hyperspectral systems that were previously confined to research labs.

Founded in 2020 as a spinout from the Physics department of the University of Oxford, Living Optics has been diligently working on engineering and software applications for its product launch in 2023. The company recently secured a significant £20m Series A investment in September 2022 from notable investors including Octopus Ventures, Foresight Williams, and Oxford Investment Consultants LLP.

Headquartered in the United Kingdom, Living Optics boasts a remote-friendly, global team and prides itself on fostering an inclusive culture, offering competitive salaries and benefits, and facilitating ongoing training and development. The company is rapidly growing and aims to be an outstanding place to work.
