Dr. Rudolf Moosburger, MBA
CEO
Rudolf has 18 years of research and international management experience in high technology companies. From 1995 to 1998, he developed integrated optical switches, tunable optical filters and a novel waveguide manufacturing
process based on standard semiconductor technology for Siemens AG. Thereafter, he joined VPIsystems where he
led the company’s global optical tools (solutions) business. In 2000, Rudolf was promoted
to Group Vice President responsible for the company’s global Photonics Business
Unit with a team of up to 65 staff members in product management, software development,
sales and support. In 2004, Rudolf was promoted to Managing Director of
VPIsystems’ Asia-Pacific subsidiary in Melbourne, Australia where he was responsible for all business affairs. Since March
2007, Rudolf has been the CEO of Heliotis Inc.
Rudolf holds both a PhD from the
Technical University of Berlin and an MBA with first class honours from theUniversity of Mannheim,Germany. He
has authored and co-authored more than 30 articles in the fields of integrated optics, process technology and optical communications systems.

Dr. Patrick Lambelet
Head of Optical Systems, CTO
During 12 years of research, Patrick Lambelet built up a strongexperience in the optics field: non-linear optics (photorefractive
crystals, frequencydoubling), lasers (semi-conductor lasers), optical instruments
(near-field microscopy) and measurements (low coherence reflectometry). In 1999, he created
the company« Brightpower », which is producing high-brightness fiber-coupled
laser modules. In the domain of optical coherence tomography (OCT) he developed a
calculation method to interpret the OCT measurements realized on bragg gratings in optical
fibers.Following the success of this method, he built a reflectometer used to
investigatephotorefractive crystals. More recently in 2005, he brought his
experience to thisfield by building a model to understand the signals of parallel OCT in
turbid (diffusing) media.

Dr. Christian Lotto
Head of ASIC Development
Since his graduation which had involved internships in
the fields of digital signal processing and micro electromechanical systems
(MEMS) Christian has built up 9 years of experience in research and development
of microchips. He has been involved with several companies in the Netherlands,
Germany, and Switzerland where he has been active in a variety of environments
ranging from applied research to development of highly reliable mass products
for the automotive industry. His activities have been focused on sensor
microchips such as Hall Effect magnetic field sensors, optosensors (optical
encoder ICs), and image sensors (single photon X-Ray image sensors,
sub-electron resolution image sensors), the latter having been the subject of
his PhD thesis. Christian has authored and co-authored several scientific
publications and patents.
