Citpo Technologies Inc. was founded by Dr. He Yande in Hsinchu in 2013. Dr. Ho completed his Ph.D. degree under Dr. An-Bin Huang, a Distinguished Professor at the Department of Civil Engineering of National Yangming Chiaotung University. Professor Huang established a Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensing laboratory in 2002. Dr. Ho worked with Professor Huang in the developments of FBG sensing technology and produced FBG sensors for field monitoring applications. The laboratory became one of the top FBG sensing technology research center in the world.

With over a decade of research and development, from building theoretical foundation, material selection & testing, design innovation and verification, manufacturing method development and verification, development of various types of fixtures, the establishment of industrial adhesives library for various applications, and the development of testing and calibration technology, the cumulative investment has reached NT$80 million. Ciypo has Completed the development of civil-engineering related sensors, including: thermometer, strain gauge, piezometer, tiltmeter, extensometer, piezometer array, IPI (In Place Inclinometer), differential subsidence meter, low frequency accelerometer and high capacity load-cell. In addition to excellent accuracy and durability of the above products, the band pass piezometer, differential pressure piezometer, piezometer array and IPI array are unique.
