Fossum, Professor at the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth. His work on miniaturising NASA interplanetary spacecraft cameras at Caltech's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in the early 1990's led to his invention of the CMOS image sensor "camera-on-a-chip" that has touched many here on Earth, from every smartphone to automobiles and medicine, from security and safety to art, social media and political change. The lecture takes place at 5.30pm and all are invited. For further information, please contact Ms. Christine Nanton, Marketing and Communications Office, UWI, St Augustine at 662 2002 ext. 83726.
