Optopyrotechnic igniters and detonators areinitiated by light energy supplied by a laserdiode and transmitted by an optical fibre. This advanced technology is particularlysuited to extreme environments includingsevere electromagnetic environments. The optopyrotechnic applications encompassmissiles, aeronautics and space domains. The European Space Agency chose the Nexter technology to equip its Ariane 6. Optopyrotechnic igniters and detonators areinitiated by light energy supplied by a laserdiode and transmitted by
