WASP-WISE team receives prestigious EU grant for neuromorphic sensor project! Fredrik Sandin, professor in the WASP-affiliated Machine Learning at Lulea University of Technology, is main PI behind the EIC Pathfinder Open grant for the project PHINDER. Out of a record-breaking 2,087 proposals submitted this year, Fredrik and his co-PIs achieved an outstanding evaluation score of 4.9 out of 5. PHINDER aims to develop new types of neuromorphic photonic sensor systems capable of analysing light from complex processes at the picosecond level (trillionths of a second), while consuming extremely low amounts of energy. The goal is to create an ultra-fast event camera with embedded intelligence for applications where conventional electronics fall short. Potential use cases include 5D imaging particle detectors in high-energy physics, proton computed tomography (CT) for radiation therapy, and adaptive control of chemical processes. The project is a joint effort between: 🤝 Luleå tekniska universitet (coordinator) – Fredrik Sandin, lama alkhaled 🤝 Lunds universitet – Anders Mikkelsen 🤝 Eindhoven University of Technology – Patty Stabile 🤝 Universidad de Oviedo – Pietro Vischia 🤝INFN- Tommaso Dorigo 🤝Universidad de Cantabria- Pablo Martinez Ruiz del Arbol 🤝 Hewlett Packard Enterprise Belgium- Wolfger Peelaers; Thomas Van Vaerenbergh Congratulations to Fredrik and his team!
