About
Source: nuvucameras.comNüvü Camēras states that it develops and manufactures “ultra-sensitive low light imaging solutions for both ground and space applications”. Its about page records that co-founders Marie-Eve Ducharme and Olivier Daigle “created Nüvü Camēras to allow scientists and professionals alike to explore interesting new territories that have hitherto remained uncharted”, based on “an innovation developed for space exploration”, and that the technology “was born after 8 years of intense research and development” beginning with Dr. Daigle’s PhD at the University of Montreal. The company states it “is the 1st and only business that has developed an EMCCD imaging solution for the space environment” and “the only company that offers technical support for all types of EMCCD detectors.”
Its nuSpace nanosatellite imaging platform was developed for NASA's flagship Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. nuvucameras.com
Announced that a Nuvu and ABB exoplanet camera readout system for a NASA flagship telescope reached orbit (September 2026). nuvucameras.com
