About this report
Raymetrics is a Greek pioneer in laser-based atmospheric sensing, translating decades of scientific expertise into cutting-edge defense and security applications. From its base in Athens, the company has quietly become a critical supplier of advanced Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) systems for monitoring aerosols, chemicals and environmental conditions at a distance.
These ultra-sensitive optical sensors—originally developed for climate and air quality research—are now finding dual-use roles in defense, such as detecting chemical or biological threats in the atmosphere and tracking the movement of unmanned aerial vehicles.
