About Us

Decades of experience designing and manufacturing precision infrared instrumentation for research laboratories, industrial OEMs, and defense programs worldwide.

Infrared Instrumentation, Built by Engineers

Infrared Systems Development Corporation (ISDC) was formed in 1997 with the acquisition of Graseby Infrared's instrument product lines, which were acquired from Infrared Industries (IRI), Infrared Systems (IRS), and Barnes Engineering Company. These products include blackbody sources, spectral radiometer systems, energy modulators, and accessories.

The engineering, manufacturing, and technical personnel who have worked with these products since their inception are still part of our team. We have modified and improved many of these products and have developed several new ones, including our infrared detector preamplifiers and TE-cooled blackbodies.

All of our products are developed and manufactured at our facility in Winter Park, Florida. We also develop systems for custom applications and offer design consulting services for many infrared instrument and sub-system projects. Our experienced staff can offer assistance in almost any IR field and offer suggestions for your system needs.
