Safran Sensing Technologies Norway AS (formerly Sensonor AS) is a French-owned Norwegian producer and developer of high precision and light-weight MEMS gyros and IMUs, and also offers foundry services in its wafer fab.

As of 1 October 2021, Sensonor is a fully owned and integrated subsidiary of Safran Electronics & Defense.

The Swiss company Colibrys changed their name to Safran Sensing Technologies Switzerland SA at the same time.
