Given its higher volumetric energy density compared to hydrogen, ammonia is expected to play a significant role in long-term energy storage. To ensure a safe and fair rollout of ammonia as an energy carrier, it is essential to establish infrastructure for measuring quantity, quality, and emissions.
This project focuses on developing faster methods for hydrogen flow calibrations (using master meters), combining flow calibrations with sampling for quality measurements, creating test protocols for gas composition sensors, and investigating potential new impurities.
Developing new standards for calibration of spectroradiometric measuring instruments, with VSL focusing primarily on new sources and detector-based methods.
Project SENVIDET contributes to the development of the Einstein Telescope through innovation in the field of sensors for vibration isolation.
Machine vision systems are crucial to many high-value industries, where Europe is globally competitive, and to the EU objectives for digital transformation and the Green Deal.
Supporting advanced production processes using so-called Digital Metrology Twins (D-MTs), where VSL will mainly work on a digital representation of tactile measurements on the CMM.
Virtual experiments and digital twins are key enabling technologies to achieve and realise European strategic policies devoted to sustainability and digitalisation within the complex framework of Industry 4.0 and the European Green Deal.
The goal of this project is to enable the Si-traceable measurements of column-integrated aerosol optical properties retrieved from the passive remote sensing of atmosphere using solar and lunar measurements.
This Research mobility grant together with EMPIR project 20FUN02 POLight aims to enhance multiple optical measurement methods for use in nano-metrology.
This project addresses this issue by developing novel methods to help bridge the metrology gap and in turn foster KET innovation. More specifically, this project will push the boundaries of optical measurement methods by realising a new generation of optical metrology systems, with unprecedented performances in terms of spatial resolution, traceability, reliability and robustness.
