The latest consortium meeting of the European BRIGHTER project took place in Nazaré, hosted by INOV, bringing together industry and research partners from several countries in electronics, sensing technologies, and intelligent systems.
Over a two-day agenda, participants engaged in presentations, demonstrations, and productive discussions, sharing progress and insights across the consortium.
Co-funded by Horizon Europe, BRIGHTER aims to develop next-generation microbolometer sensors for infrared imaging, offering faster performance and multispectral capabilities while narrowing the gap with cooled sensors.
The meeting included a visit to Docapesca, where infrared cameras are being tested under real maritime conditions. The trials are validating solutions in electronics, thermal sensing, optics, and advanced image processing, paving the way for industrial, environmental, and mobility applications.
