About this event
On 9 November 2021, the Intelligent Lighting Institute (ILI) of Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) organizes its annual public outreach event . During this event we highlight recent developments in responsible research & innovation in science & technology in light & intelligent lighting and its applications in, for instance, health & well-being.
A number of guest speakers from industry and academia will inform the audience about relevant developments in R&D and (technological) design of light and lighting to influence the health and behavior of people, plants, and animals.
During the event the audience will also be able to get better informed about recent, current, and upcoming research & innovation projects carried out by researchers related to ILI by means of a series of poster presentations.
The event is free, but registration is required
