Panel discussion: Unlocking new sensing capabilities with mid-infrared PICs

Join us on October 14 for an engaging online discussion about photonic integrated circuits (PICs) and their game-changing role in sensing applications. Among the expert panelists will be Ryszard Piramidowicz, PIC Program Director at VIGO Photonics, who leads the groundbreaking HyperPIC project.

The panel organised by Electro Optics will start at 4 PM CEST. You can register here>> 

Mid-infrared photonic integrated circuits (PICs) are transforming sensing technologies, enabling applications that range from safer cars and cleaner air to smarter health diagnostics. Compact, scalable, and highly sensitive, they hold enormous potential across automotive, medical, industrial, and environmental sectors.

Still, moving from lab prototypes to robust, market-ready products is not without its challenges. During this online panel, our experts will discuss the hurdles faced by manufacturers, engineers, and application developers, while also highlighting the most promising use cases and innovations driving adoption. Attendees will gain valuable insights into current and future market trends and learn what it takes to scale PIC applications in line with customer needs.

The panel will feature leading voices from across the ecosystem, including Ryszard Piramidowicz, PIC Program Director from VIGO Photonics, Abdul Rahim, Ecosystem Manager from Photon Delta, Ruud Oldenbeuving, Principal Scientist representing imec and Emre Kaplan, PDK Manager from CORNERSTONE, University of Southampton.

This session is an opportunity to hear directly from specialists shaping the future of photonic sensing, connect with peers, and take part in a live Q&A. Don’t miss the chance to learn how mid-infrared PICs are moving from research to real-world impact.
