IS2013
Image Sensors 2013 was the best event to date. With a huge audience matching 2012 record level attendance, and a very strong speaking line up the statistics speaker for themselves:
- 100% - rated the conference Above Average or Excellent
- 99% - of delegates met exactly who they were looking to meet
- 98% - are intending to register for IS2014
- 76% - of attendees will do new business or launch new projects
Highlights included excellent Keynotes from Dr Howard Rhodes, Jim DeFilippis, Dr Junichi Nakamura, and Prof Franco Zappa as well as a lively and engaging presentation on colour science from Alan Roberts. Jim Lewis's mythbusting of ToF and 3D technology, interesting papers from Toyota, STMicroelectronics, and PCO, among others rounded off an excellent programme.
Big thanks to the audience and 2013 Chairmen - Lindsay Grant (STMicro) and Jan Bosiers (Teledyne DALSA) for creating a really interactive environment with extensive Q&A. New features the Innovation Platform and Expert Panel Debate were well received and we're looking forward to working to further enhance the conference experience for 2014.
But don't just take our word for it, here are some testimonials from the attendees:
"I like this conference, it's a good mix of technical content with business-focussed presentations, and the audience always has a good spread across R&D and management. I am delighted to return to deliver the opening Keynote presentation, and I'm sure I'll be back at Image Sensors again in the future."
Dr Howard Rhodes, CTO, Omnivision
"This was my first time at Image Sensors, but I was very impressed with the calibre of attendees, and the range of high-quality content and discussion made for an excellent forum. A thoroughly enjoyable and valuable experience and this certainly won't be the last time I attend."
