Built by people who turn practical ideas into electronics.
<p>MIS grew from a founder-led electronics company into a Richmond Hill manufacturing team with engineering, quality, assembly, testing, and innovation under one roof.</p>
A Canadian manufacturer shaped by risk, invention, and follow-through.
MIS takes its name from Masjid-i-Suleiman, the place that inspired founder Saeid Mohmedi's belief that careful risk and practical discovery can build something lasting. That origin still shows up in how the company supports customers: patient engineering, disciplined manufacturing, and a willingness to solve hard details.
1998Electronics ideas moving from concept into production
40,000sq ft design, engineering, assembly, and manufacturing plant
4 SMTproduction lines supporting modern PCB assembly
70+people across engineering, production, quality, and support
Founder's perspective
Customer delight, backed by honesty and integrity.
For founder Saeid Mohmedi, quality is more than a production checkpoint. It is a company-wide responsibility grounded in honest communication, continual improvement, and empowering people to act when they see a better way to serve the customer.
A message from Saeid Mohmedi
With over two decades in the business, our core values remain the same—we run our business with honesty and integrity while always striving to provide the best experience for our customers.
We don't just aim for customer satisfaction; we are in pursuit of a higher standard. We like to think of it as customer delight. Our approach to business is customer-centric, and we have established a solid infrastructure to support this.
Saeid Mohmedi, Founder, President & CEO
MIS is committed to fulfilling customer requirements in a way that meets or exceeds expectations. The company continually reviews its quality management system to improve service delivery, treats quality as the responsibility of every employee, and empowers its people to act when they see an opportunity to improve.
Why MIS
Fewer gaps, clearer communication, and disciplined execution.
Customers come to MIS for quality, responsiveness, affordability, flexibility, efficiency, and a team that can guide a project from concept to delivery without scattering the work across disconnected vendors.
End-to-end support
Design, prototypes, assembly, manufacturing, post-manufacturing, testing, packaging, and delivery can be managed as one connected path.
In-house guidance
Engineering and quality assurance specialists help customers think through feasibility, deployment, verification, revisions, and production readiness.
Quality systems
ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 registration support documented process control, review, corrective action, and customer confidence.
Cost and schedule control
MIS focuses on faster time-to-market, fewer uncertainties, lower total cost, and a local alternative to fragmented offshore manufacturing.
ESD discipline
ESD training, protected-area controls, work instructions, documentation, markings, and regular audits help protect sensitive electronics during production.
Customer care
MIS frames long-term partnerships around honesty, integrity, responsive communication, and a higher bar than basic customer satisfaction.
Innovation
Innovation at MIS is tied to manufacturable electronics.
MIS connects research, design, development, feasibility, prototyping, testing, and verification so promising ideas can become manufacturable products.
Practical innovation
MIS supports creators, engineers, and product teams that need help turning technical ideas into assemblies that can be built, tested, and delivered.
The company's innovation story includes experience with heartbeat authentication, LED lighting, nanobiophotonics and biomedical research, touchless automatic sensor faucet systems, emergency lighting, electric vehicles, consumer electronics, and mission-critical products. This range shows how MIS connects research, electronics, controls, and manufacturable product development.
For customers, the practical value is that MIS can help clarify feasibility, refine system details, reduce avoidable cost, and connect early design decisions to the realities of manufacturing.
Research to product
Support can begin while requirements are still forming and continue through prototype learning, validation, and production release.
Built with production in mind
Innovation is strongest when a concept can be documented, sourced, assembled, inspected, tested, packaged, and supported repeatedly.
Fingerprint-only authorization can be vulnerable because fingerprints are static and can be left behind on objects. HP Auth was developed to add a living biometric layer that connects authentication to heart dynamics rather than relying on static data alone.
HP Auth
HP Auth is an MIS-invented and patented authentication technology that combines fingerprint input with biometric signals from the user's heartbeat and skin.
Fingerprint-only authorization can be vulnerable because fingerprints are static and can be left behind on objects. HP Auth was developed to add a living biometric layer that connects authentication to heart dynamics rather than relying on static data alone.
HP Auth was developed for potential financial, security, government, consumer, and automotive applications. The technology combines multifactor authentication, card-contained biometric data, anti-spoofing measures, and privacy-oriented design. HP Auth and Enhanced PPG are MIS technology marks associated with U.S. Patent 10,076,920.
Combines fingerprint interaction with heartbeat and skin-based biometric signatures.
Uses a living signal as part of the authentication layer for stronger product integrity.
Keeps biometric data on the card rather than relying on external storage.
Prototype concepts included a payment card and fob, fingerprint and E-PPG sensing, local microcontroller logic, NFC control, and visible or audible verification cues.
LED Lighting
MIS has many years of electronics manufacturing experience in the lighting and LED industry, including products where photonics, controls, durability, and assembly quality matter.
LED and lighting programs bring their own manufacturing challenges: control integration, power choices, vibration and shock resistance, thermal considerations, color performance, and reliable assembly at production scale.
MIS experience includes LED driver assemblies, automotive lighting, solar-powered lighting, plasma lighting, light strips and chains, commercial lighting, and industrial signage. That history makes LED Lighting a natural part of the company's innovation story.
Support for electronics used in lighting controls, drivers, indicators, and integrated assemblies.
Experience with products that depend on photonics, compact form factors, and dependable output.
Manufacturing awareness for lighting products moving from prototype into repeatable builds.
Nanobiophotonics Research
The Nanobiophotonics & Biomedical Research Lab connects MIS with advanced research in nanotechnology, biomedical science, photonics, optical sensing, and clinical device development.
Established in 2017 as an integrated part of MIS Electronics, the Nanobiophotonics & Biomedical Research Lab focuses on advanced research and nanotechnology- and photonics-based clinical industrial devices for biomedical applications.
The lab's work connects electronics, optical systems, biomedical engineering, spectroscopy, imaging, nanomedicine, nano-biosensors, laser-tissue interaction, and specialized consulting for academic and commercial partners. It was established to build partnerships with academic institutions and commercial organizations while developing photonics- and nanotechnology-based clinical and industrial devices.
