Applied Industrial Spectroscopy (AIS)
Applied Industrial Spectroscopy (AIS) focuses on optics and photonic solutions to current industrial challenges.
AIS explores the use of classical spectral sensing in all spectral regions - ranging from absorbance/transmission spectroscopy, Raman, LIBS, FTIR, THz spectroscopy and mm-wave sensing. We also welcome work on emerging technologies, such as DCFC, LiDAR etc. in combination with advanced imaging techniques to provide actionable information to industry. Original and translational research into the development and advancement of various techniques, tools, sources/detectors and calibration thereof, is highly encouraged.
AIS is the most suitable platform to showcase the transformative impact in the sensing/imaging domain brought about by the fusion of multiple analytical methods with the help of artificial intelligence/ machine learning (AI/ML), as well as, meta-structures for augmented sensing capability, cross-correlational spectroscopy/imaging. We anticipate presentations from researchers using spectroscopy in the domains of food and pharma safety, precision farming, wastewater and public health, energy and extraction, including climate and environmental monitoring.
