AP Sensing GmbH is a developer and manufacturer of distributed fibre-optic sensing (DFOS) technology products. It is headquartered in Böblingen, Germany.[1] The company was founded in 2007 after spinning off from Agilent Technologies. AP Sensing operates in Asia Pacific, the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Africa. AP Sensing is a member of the Fiber Optic Sensing Association (FOSA). The technology is used for fire detection in assets (i.e. tunnels, conveyor belts and special hazard buildings) and in power cable-, pipeline-, well & reservoir- and rail-monitoring systems as well as in geo- and hydrological monitoring applications.
