Zdeněk Veselý presented our activities in photo-thermal properties analysis at the IR-EMPOWER workshop, which took place in September at the University of the Basque Country in Bilbao. In his invited lecture, he summarized the developed measurement methods and their application areas, including their use for precise IR thermodiagnostics in additive manufacturing as part of the OPTHERM project, which aims to optimize 3D printing of plastic filaments to enhance the strength of printed parts.

Unique Measurement Method for Laser Processing Presented at PLI Conference in France
Jiří Martan presented cutting-edge developments on the PLI Conference, held in June in Bordeaux, focused on advancements in industrial laser processes. His invited talk focused on the fast temperature measurement method LabIR Ultrashort developed for process monitoring and control of laser surface texturing. The method was developed as part of the M-era.net project ADVENTURE. This project aims to enhance thermal spray technology by introducing laser surface texturing for cleaner and more flexible substrate preparation.
