Our facility at the Faculty of Engineering and Science combines sub-micron X-ray microscopy with full-field measurement, so specimens can be imaged and measured while they deform. Access is open to collaborators and industrial partners.
Hardware and in-house software, used together as one pipeline.
KA Imaging
Sub-micron resolution with fast phase-contrast acquisition, paired with a custom-designed in‑situ loading device so specimens can be imaged while they deform under static and dynamic loading.
First and only of its kind in EuropeImetrum
Full-field surface displacement and strain measurement of specimens under static and dynamic loading conditions.
Living Optics
Spectral signatures that reveal the biochemical state of tissue alongside its structure — the input to our HSI classification and tumour-detection models.
In-house software
Internal, three-dimensional strain measurement from tomographic volumes. Developed continuously in the lab, with AI solutions integrated as they mature.
The facility is open to academic collaborators and industrial partners. Get in touch to discuss imaging time, in‑situ testing, or a measurement problem you are stuck on.
