Missions
We design and commercialize liquid lenses (patented technology) with direct electrical control,
for industry and research. We develop solutions for specific applications, adapted for any kind
of mass production. We also develop a standard line of lenses (prototypes, small series, pre-series)
which can be used for tests in a perspective of technological evaluation before industrialisation.
Skills, origins of the technology
The Varioptic technology is directly issued from a 10 year research at
Université
Joseph Fourier and at Ecole
Normale Supérieure de Lyon .... The founder and inventor of the technology is Bruno BERGE,
former researsh scientist at CNRS (National Centre for Scientific Research) and then Professor at
Ecole Normale Sup�rieure de Lyon.
The present team is composed of research scientists, engineers, technicians, who gather skills in science,
industrial techniques and marketing development.
Investments
The capital of the company is divided between the first founders, the Universit� Joseph
FOURIER, the CNRS and the Ecole Normale Sup�rieure de Lyon. Furthermore, an increase in capital has been
possible withe a venture capital investor, SOFINNOVA, who's just invested in the company in order to increase industrial as
well as technological development and reinforce the team.
