Last Tuesday, the group was pleased to host an industry talk given by Charles Bibas, CEO of #Tecnica Inc. 💡 He demonstrated the benefits of his patented Lens-Free Optical Scanner (LFOS), an innovative solution for high-precision, large-area 3D printing (#SLS) (1/3)

Had an awesome time at the Cathedral yesterday attending @unikentphysics student graduations - 1st time being on the "other side" as an academic member of staff! Was also great seeing some of our students (esp @AOGKent) receiving very well-deserved prizes, well done to them! 😎
