As a manufacturer of fibre optic kinetic sensors, Micronor has amassed a number of 'world firsts' and industry awards. In 2003, Micronor developed the MR310 series, the world’s first commercial fibre optic incremental encoders, which was followed by the award of US Patent 7,196,320 in 2007.

In 2010, the MR330 was released as the world’s first commercial 13-bit fibre optic absolute rotary encoder with US Patent 8,461,514 to follow in 2013.

Other 'world firsts' were the release of these products in MRI-compatible versions at the bequest of the medical industry. In 2017, Micronor was awarded the ECN Impact Award for the MR386, the World’s First V-series compatible Fibre Optic Microswitch.
