                                PROXY STATEMENT
 
     This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of
proxies by the Board of Directors of Daedalus Enterprises, Inc. (the "Company")
to be used at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company to be held at
the Company's executive offices, 300 Parkland Plaza, Ann Arbor, Michigan
(mailing address P.O. Box 1869, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48106), on Tuesday, December
12, 1995, at 2:00 p.m., local time, or at any adjournment thereof, for the
purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders
and in this Proxy Statement.
 
     Only stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 1, 1995
will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting or any adjournment thereof. Each
holder of the 515,654 shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value (the "Common
Stock"), issued and outstanding as of that date is entitled to one vote per
share. This Proxy Statement and the accompanying form of proxy are being first
sent or given to the Company's stockholders on or about November 13, 1995. Ten
days before the Annual Meeting, a complete list of stockholders entitled to vote
at the meeting will be open to examination by any stockholder for any purpose
germane to the meeting during ordinary business hours at the Company's principal
offices.
 
     Shares represented by a proxy in the accompanying form, unless previously
revoked, will be voted at the meeting if the proxy, properly executed, is
received by the Company before the close of business on December 11, 1995.
Shares represented by a proxy received after that time will be voted if the
proxy is received by the Company in sufficient time to permit the necessary
examination and tabulation of the proxy before a vote is taken. Stockholders who
execute a proxy in the accompanying form may nevertheless revoke the proxy at
any time before it is exercised by notice to the Company, by executing and
delivering a later dated proxy, or by voting in person at the meeting.
 
     The expense of solicitation of proxies will be paid by the Company. In
addition to solicitation by mail, the officers and employees of the Company, who
will receive no extra compensation therefor, may solicit proxies personally or
by telephone. The Company will reimburse brokerage houses and other nominees for
their expenses incurred in sending proxies and proxy materials to the beneficial
owners of shares held by them.

(1) In exchange for the cancellation of a warrant, Mr. Ory received cash in an
    amount equal to the difference between the fair market value on the
    cancellation date and the warrant exercise price.
 
(2) The value of unexercised in-the-money options was calculated using the
    average of the bid and ask price of the Company's Common Stock at July 31,
    1995.
 
TERMINATION-OF-EMPLOYMENT
 
     Each of the Named Officers of the Company received a Senior Officer
Severance Agreement that would require the Company to pay each such officer an
amount equal to one and one-half times each officer's highest annual W-2
compensation from the Company during the three calendar years immediately
preceding such Officer's termination of employment if such termination of
employment meets one of several criteria. In general, such amounts would be
payable upon termination in anticipation of, or after, a change in control or
upon resignation following a reduction in such
 
                                        6
<PAGE>   9
 
officer's salary or other compensation, any diminution of the Officer's
authority or duties or a significant change in the nature and scope of the
Officers' duties, any change in the Officers' status or title (other than a bona
fide promotion) or any required relocation of the Officer's residence should any
such event occur after a change in control or within six months prior to a
change in control. The Officer would also be entitled to continuation of
coverage under Company benefit plans for up to 18 months and to outplacement
services. The cash payment required under the agreement may be paid in a lump
sum or in monthly installments over an 18 month period, depending upon the
circumstances of the change in control.
 
COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
 
     Directors receive $900 per quarter with an additional payment of $300 for
each Board or Committee meeting attended, and are reimbursed for travel expenses
incurred in connection with their attendance at Board and Committee meetings.
 
     At the 1994 Annual Meeting, the Company's stockholders approved the
Company's Stock Option Plan for Nonemployee Directors pursuant to which an
option was granted to each of the four current outside directors, Messrs.
Sanders, Power, Panschar and Brewer, and will be granted to each future outside
director, for the purchase of 3,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an
exercise price equal to the fair market value of such shares on the date of
grant. Each option granted under this plan becomes exercisable in equal annual
installments over four years beginning one year after grant, and expiring ten
years after grant.
 
     During fiscal 1995, in exchange for the cancellation of an outstanding
warrant to purchase 3,500 shares of Common Stock, Messrs. Sanders and Power each
received $4,375, which was the difference between the fair market value, on the
cancellation date, and the warrant exercise price.
 
                              SECURITIES REPORTING
 
     Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")
requires the Company's officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10%
of a registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file reports of
ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC"). Officers and directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required
by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms
they file. Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it
since August 1, 1994, or written representations from certain reporting persons
that no Forms 5 were required for those persons, the Company believes that all
filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors, and greater than 10%
beneficial owners were complied with, except that William Panschar, a director
of the Company, filed one late Form 5 disclosing one exempt transaction.
