The Sensors & Instrumentation KTN is the UK’s sensing network. It works with industry and researchers to exploit sensing technologies and is an authoritative voice informing government about the future impact of sensing. Its mission is to improve UK sensing innovation by transferring knowledge to businesses and enabling them to access the best science and technology.
This seminar series will be the first time the Sensors and Instrumentation KTN has been involved in PHOTONEX. This Workshop will include presentations on optical and photonic techniques that can be used to solve a range of sensing problems.
Don't forget to bring details of your sensing problem to PHOTONEX for the Sensors KTN experts to solve
