Quantitative imaging and sensor technology

Understanding light propagation as the basis of many optics applications in medicine and engineering

The department Quantitative Imaging and Sensors is engaged in model-based simulative and metrological imaging and sensor technology. The aim is the direct acquisition of information employing physics-based models of light propagation in the examined media or objects,

i.e. without having to resort to calibration measurements. For this purpose, a large number of different measurement procedures and theoretical methods have been developed.

Exemplary measurement technology projects

Direct absolute determination of food ingredients
Non-invasive determination of vital parameters in humans
(Early) Detection and classification of tissue changes such as melanoma or endometriosis
Determination of the optical properties of turbid media such as biological tissue, tooth replacement materials, (effect) car paints or lighting elements
Determination of the constituents and microstructure of soils, snow, leaves, powders or pharmaceutical products

Exemplary simulation projects

Rendering of biological (see picture) and technical objects
Simulation of microscopic images (OCT, LSM)
Work on Wave Front Shaping
Color management of plastics or 3D printing
