Workshop 4

Focusing on noise test and refinements of the circuits and chip components design, reporting developments on multiple visual systems coordination and realization, relevant to WP2 and WP3.

Task 5.4 The STEP2DYNA Workshop Four was hosted at the University of Lincoln (UoL) in the city of Lincoln, United Kingdom. It was held over two days on the 16th and 17th October 2018. The workshop focused on refinements of the circuits and chip components, and reporting developments on multiple visual systems coordination and realization.

The workshop began with a partner meeting to discuss the project progress, issues and future plans. On the second day further partner discussion was held to consider the project exploitation plan and reporting. Alongside this, presentations were delivered by partner leads, researchers and students. Over the two day event, attendees had the opportunity to network, share ideas, and discuss their research.
