Opsens Inc. is a Québec City–based technology company specializing in the design, development and commercialization of fiber optic-based sensing solutions. Since its founding in 2000, Opsens has focused on bringing high-precision measurement tools to both the medical and industrial sectors. The company’s proprietary fiber optic technology enables real‐time monitoring of pressure and temperature in challenging environments where traditional electronic sensors may fail.
Through its medical division, Opsens Medical, the company produces pressure‐sensing guidewires used in fractional flow reserve (FFR) procedures for interventional cardiology. These guidewires deliver accurate intra‐arterial pressure measurements to help physicians assess the severity of coronary artery disease, guiding treatment decisions and improving patient outcomes. Opsens Medical has secured regulatory clearances in North America, Europe and other key markets, and has formed strategic partnerships with leading global medical device manufacturers to broaden its distribution network.
Opsens Solutions, the company’s industrial arm, serves the oil and gas, energy, nuclear and manufacturing industries with rugged fiber optic pressure and temperature sensors. These products are deployed in downhole drilling operations, pipeline monitoring, hydraulic fracturing and power generation, where extreme temperatures, high pressures and electromagnetic interference can compromise conventional instrumentation. Opsens Solutions has established a global footprint with operations and representatives in North America, Europe, Asia and the Middle East, supporting complex projects for customers such as oilfield service firms and energy producers.
Led by President and Chief Executive Officer Vincent Bourbonnais, Opsens maintains a leadership team with deep experience in medical device engineering, industrial automation and fiber optic technology. The company continues to invest in research and development to extend its sensor portfolio and pursue new applications, while advancing strategic collaborations with academic institutions and industry partners. Opsens’ dual focus on medical and industrial markets positions it to leverage its core photonics expertise across multiple high‐growth sectors worldwide.
