A fridge that can do your shopping for you and tell you when food has gone bad is a shiny, exciting not-to-far-away future. A less exciting element of the Internet of Things (IoT) is the amount of data it is going to generate, the need to store it, and pass it from one point to […]
A new engineering study has been commissioned by the European Space Agency (under PECS, the Program for European Cooperating States), to prove the reliability of meta-optical elements for space use in a collaboration between the ESA, Bulgarian start-up company LaboraXpert and TMOS, the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Transformative Meta-Optical Systems. In the […]

Anyone whose rearview camera has saved them from a broken bumper knows the value of eyes in the back of your head. That’s why new cars come complete with rear-facing visible cameras, RADAR and near-infrared LiDAR sensors that will tell you when something is getting too close. LiDAR is currently the workhorse of automated driving; […]
Facilitating collaboration between the five different nodes of TMOS is one of the Centre’s key priorities, which is why the Cross-Node Exchange Award was designed. ANU-based Fedor Kovalev was one of the applicants chosen to participate, and he travelled to UWA to work with the team there. Not only did he learn the details of the […]
Every year in Australia, more than 5000 children are rescued after being left unattended in a car. Not all of those children are saved before they succumb to death by heatstroke, with at least ten Australian children dying in the past five years after being left inside a hot car. The number of animal deaths […]
From Professor Dragomir Neshev, Centre Director as outlined in the 2022 Annual Report. 2022 was an important year for TMOS. Firstly, interstate and overseas travel opened for us to meet and undertake many activities in person. I will never forget the enthusiasm of all students and early career researchers attending the first outreach workshop at […]
When a building is on fire, every second counts. It can mean life or death for trapped victims and no emergency responder wants to be slowed down because they can’t see through walls of smoke. But firefighters can’t run headlong into every situation. When there’s a likelihood that toxic substances are present, they need to […]
