Brian Sheil, Laing O’Rourke Associate Professor, is one of the founders and the Chief Scientific Officer (CSO) of JoltSynSor, a spin-out that pioneers a unique sensor technology.
This technology is capable of transforming structures themselves into hyper-accurate sensors by using a novel algorithm. This breakthrough translates raw strain measurements into tangible metrics such as force, torque, and temperature, eliminating the need for problematic external sensors. The main goal of this technology is to redefine global standards for safety and precision across various industries, ranging from infrastructure to robotics, from offshore wind farms to aerospace.
JoltSynSor's mission is to enable machines with sensory capabilities like humans, making a future in which machines can sense and interpret their surroundings like humans. Learn more about JoltSynSor.
