Virginia Technologies, Inc. – VTI –
is an award-winning leader in the development
and commercialization of electronic instrumentation
and other technologies. The company has enhanced
the safety and maintenance of civil structures
around the world with the Embedded
Corrosion Instrument, a monitor that provides
early warning of the corrosive environment in
steel-reinforced concrete. It has laid the groundwork
for a major advance in medical care with Q-Stim,
a neurostimulator that adapts to patient needs.
In collaboration with Willis Optics, VTI has also
developed the Quantitative
Light Standard, a new technology that enables
scientists to test the light source and detection
systems in microscopes and microplate readers,
answering an urgent need in biomedical research
and drug discovery.
In addition to developing its own products,
VTI helps independent scientists and engineers
to develop their most promising new technologies.
Leveraging its extensive contacts, resources,
and expertise, VTI also helps certain of these
collaborators to validate the commercial potential
of their technology concepts, to obtain funding
and patent protection, to prepare their innovations
for manufacture, and to launch them in commercial
sales.
At its headquarters in Charlottesville, Virginia,
U.S.A., the company maintains research and development
laboratories with a wide array of electronic
test equipment. It employs computer-aided design
(CAD) tools for schematic capture, printed circuit
design, programmable logic design, and embedded
system programming. A certified LabView developer,
VTI also employs this suite of tools for logic
design. Additionally, providing services beyond
the development stage, the company maintains
a facility for prototyping, production engineering,
and early- to medium-stage manufacture of electronic
products.
Virginia Technologies has won numerous accolades
for innovation, including the coveted Breakthrough
Award from the Virginia Piedmont Technology
Council.
