Venue：Yuquan Campus, Teaching Building1-411
Speaker：Dr. Chris Tisse, ULIS, France
Abstract:
The application of microbolometers into thermal imaging technology is a fundamental breakthrough for infrared market, though to help increase the precision of this technology, there must be further development in the field of electronics and microprocessors to allow for improved use in R&D, manufacturing process control, energy audits, and predictive maintenance. During his presentation, Dr Chris Tisse will talk about “Technological Trends in Thermal Image Sensors”, discussing what thermal sensors could bring to smart cities, automotive and mobile thermography applications.
Short Bio:
Dr Chris Tisse is the CTO at ULIS, has more than 15 years of specialist knowledge in optical (visible-light and thermal) imaging science. He has extensive expertise in computational imaging, a multi-disciplinary field involving the co-design and joint-optimization of optoelectronic methods, image sensors and image/video processing techniques. His industrial experiences in Europe and Asia-Pacific, include working for MTech-Imaging Pte Ltd., in Singapore, the Institute for Infocomm Research (A*STAR), the Interactive and Digital Media Institute, DxO labs and STMicroelectronics. He obtained his PhD in Microelectronics from the Laboratory of Computer Science, Robotics and Microelectronics (LIRMM) at the University of Montpellier in 2003.
ULIS, a subsidiary of Sofradir and GE Equity, specializes in the design and manufacture of high quality infrared imaging sensors for thermography, security and surveillance, automotive and military applications. It enables makers of consumer electronics and infrared equipment to produce low weight, low power consumption and cost-effective thermal cameras in large volume. ULIS is ranked #2 in the world for infrared (IR) sensors delivered.
