Shenzhen Haytham Technology Co., Ltd. is a technology innovation enterprise centered on machine vision technology. Since its founding, it has insisted on fully independent intellectual property R&D and is committed to applying advanced machine vision technology to the sensor field, and has become a globally leading provider of DIC vision sensing technology solutions, with products widely used in material mechanical property testing, structural mechanical property testing, safety inspection and safety monitoring. Haytham Technology is headquartered in Shenzhen, has an R&D center in Beijing, a subsidiary in Chengdu, and offices in Changchun, Tianjin, Beijing, Jinan, Shanghai, Wuhan and Xi'an.

Core Technology and Innovation Breakthroughs

Haytham's self-developed third-generation DIC technology is a non-contact, vision-based full-field deformation measurement method. Compared with traditional contact measurement technology, DIC has significant advantages such as non-contact operation, ease of use and high precision. However, traditional DIC equipment suffers from high cost and complex operation.
By introducing deep learning, image recognition, oblique optical-axis technology and the original DIC+ system, Haytham achieved standardization, intelligence and cost optimization of its equipment. The launched DIC vision sensor series, like a point-and-shoot camera, displays results in real time without complex operation, greatly lowering the technical use threshold, with more convenient operation, more comprehensive data and wider application.

Core products

1. Video extensometer: based on single-camera 3D DIC technology, supports non-contact strain and displacement measurement, with laser focusing, automatic marker recognition, temperature range -190℃ to 2300℃, and strain range 0-1000%. With the optional fatigue frequency-reduction measurement module, cross-cycle deformation data acquisition is possible, meeting high-precision standards and complex testing needs.
