WASHINGTON — Teledyne Technologies is creating a dedicated business unit for space programs, consolidating its imaging, electronics and component businesses as demand rises for satellite-based sensing technologies.
Teledyne provides subsystems such as sensors, detectors and instrumentation that are integrated into larger aerospace and defense platforms. In space, its hardware supports satellite payloads for Earth observation, missile warning and scientific missions.
The Thousand Oaks, California-based supplier said the new sector, Teledyne Space, will combine capabilities that had been spread across multiple segments, including detectors, microwave devices, optoelectronics and radiation-tolerant semiconductors.
