Welcome to the Lumen Lab!
We’re a research lab started in 2023 at the University of Nottingham with research focused on applications of optical engineering.
Research Vision
Optical engineering underlies the technology of modern life and provides solutions to some of the world’s biggest challenges. From the laser used in making your smartphone to the satellites used for imaging forest fires, optics are key.
The Lumen Lab explores applications of optical engineering to areas including 3D displays, manufacturing, medicine and space.
