LAPD

Welcome to the Laboratory of Applied Photonics Devices

We are a team of passionate engineers who shape light to do interesting research in several areas such as manufacturing 3D structures in transparent and diffuse materials from soft to hard via additive manufacturing. We are interested specifically in volumetric manufacturing to produce objects directly in 3D as opposed to layer by layer. We conceive the full system from the hardware to the control algorithm that include feedback. We also shape light and use linear and non-linear optics in multimode fibers to perform endoscopic imaging, light delivery and use them as well as optical computing neuromorphic machines.

We are also passionate about translating our research to industrial practical applications and have had many successful spin-offs.
