We work with partners in sectors including ICT, aerospace, healthcare, and defence and security. Many of the technologies developed here have found their way into commercial production as a result of successful university-industry partnerships, such as high power fibre lasers, optical fibre sensors for the oil and gas industry and electronics printed on to textiles.
