About Lightstorm Research

Problem solvers by design.

A small business built to move quickly across disciplines and deliver practical, mission-focused technical solutions.

Unoccupied multidisciplinary laboratory with optical, electronic, and mechanical engineering equipment

Solving problems is what we do

Technical depth with small-business speed

Lightstorm Research develops innovative solutions for government and industry by combining expertise from multiple disciplines into practical, cost-effective results.

Many successful programs begin with data collection and analysis that clearly define the challenge before development begins. Understanding the problem first helps customers reduce risk and make better technical decisions.

Our work spans basic research through low-rate production of advanced sensing systems, subsystems, and components.

Fast. Flexible. Responsive.

In-house capability keeps programs moving

From the initial discussion through project completion, Lightstorm is structured to respond quickly. We have brought capabilities in-house to reduce reliance on outside vendors that may not move as quickly as we can. This translates to a quicker response to your problem.
