Adaps Photonics

Adaps Photonics (Shenzhen Adaps Photonics Technology Co., Ltd. / 灵明光子) is a fabless semiconductor company founded in May 2018 in the Nanshan district of Shenzhen, China, with R&D centers in Shanghai and Zhejiang. It designs single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) based direct time-of-flight (dToF) 3D depth-sensing chips and modules — silicon photomultipliers (SiPM), 3D-stacked SPAD arrays hybrid-bonded to custom DSP dies, and all-in-one integrated dToF depth sensors — for smartphones, automotive LiDAR, AR/VR headsets, robotics, smart home and industrial IoT. The company sells silicon and sensor modules to device makers through a direct sales motion; it publishes no public API, SDK, developer portal or machine-readable interface contract.

Adaps Photonics is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Semiconductors, Sensors, Photonics, and LiDAR.
