New way to monitor eye microcirculation |
Researchers at the ICTER – International Centre for Translational Eye Research have described a new way of analysing the structure of the eye, using data collected using the STOC-T (Spatio-Temporal Optical Coherence Tomography) technique. By altering the data analysis algorithm for imaging the choroid accordingly, it is possible to obtain information about the blood supply and circulation in the retina, the tissue that is a specific detector of the world we see with our eyes.

Let's talk about photonics in defence and security |
PhotonHub Europe is a European support network for entrepreneurs introducing photonic technologies into their products or processes. 38 leading technology centres (including 2 from Poland) offer knowledge, training - and above all the opportunity to test, prototype and develop technologies. Thanks to EU funding, technology services are available to companies on attractive terms. PhotonHub also supports startups.
The defence industry has been a recipient of innovative solutions - including photonics - for years. PhotonHub will be a partner of the PPTF stand at this year's 32nd International Defence Industry Exhibition MSPO 2024. We invite you to Kielce on 3-6 September - let's talk about how specifically PhotonHub can support the development of new solutions for security and defence applications. |
