On Tuesday, 28 October 2025, we held the 3rd edition of ‘ePicture This’ - an international industrial workshop on imaging, hosted by TU/e. The workshop attracted interest from leading imaging companies across Europe. Speakers from 3DHistech (Hungary), Inria (France), Grass Valley (UK), Teledyne E2V (France/Spain), Philips (NL), Essens (Belgium), and ASML (NL) presented their latest research in imaging AI, sensor design, and Tier-1 imaging applications.
The Senaatzaal at TU/e was fully booked with participants. As always, the coffee breaks were the most fruitful moments for idea exchange, networking, and plenty of laughs. We were also gently censured by TU/e management for the extensive use of the vuvuzela, loudly announcing the start of each session.
The Best Presentation Award, decided by the jury, went to Leo Kampmeijer (TNO) for his talk ‘Shared situational awareness in robotic perimeter surveillance.’ The workshop was supported by XECS, AENEAS, and ITEA4.
The organizers - Egor Bondarev (AIMS lab, SPS, EE, TU/e), Klaas Jan Damstra (Grass Valley), Marcel Dijkema (Adimec Teledyne), and Sandra K.R. (TU Delft) - are very thankful to the keynote speakers, presenters, and audience for the in-depth discussions and fun during the event. We look forward to seeing all of you and other imaging experts at the next edition in 2026!
Venue: Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), in the Netherlands
