Featuring
Latest ResearchStudents and researchers will be presenting demonstrations and posters of current projects, including:• CEGE Bus! We’ve got our own double-decker and will be showing you some of the kit we use as part of our mobility research, including the f-scan system and x-sens motion sensors and members of the Accessibility Research Group will be on hand to talk about their work.• Geomatic Mapping. We’ll be showing some of our cutting edge imaging and mapping software and the team will be presenting posters of their current research.• The latest kit in use by the geomatic imaging team, including ScanStation2, will be on demonstration.• The SpaceTimeLab group will present live simulation and visualisation of traffic congestion in Central London.• The EPICentre group carry out on-site research studying at the impact of earthquakes, come and see before and after images and talk to the researchers about how their work. They’ll also be playing with industrial shaking tables and lego!• MSc Course tutor Chris Wise of Expedition Engineering will be on hand to talk about the award winning engineering projects they have been involved with, including the 2012 Olympic Velodrome.
