About the Speaker
Living Optics, spun out from the University of Oxford's Physics Department in 2020, develops innovative hyperspectral imaging (HSI) cameras designed for broad market adoption. Its VIS-NIR snapshot camera captures real-time video data, revealing details invisible to human eyes and standard imaging systems. By integrating patented optical technologies, custom neural networks, and precise mathematics, Living Optics significantly reduces the size, cost, and complexity of traditionally lab-bound hyperspectral systems. Backed by a Series A investment of £20 million from leading investors, including Oxford Science Enterprises and Octopus Ventures, the company supports a global, remote-friendly team committed to innovation, inclusion, and professional growth.
