Current trends and latest advancements in Vibrometry & MEMS characterization

Welcome to the Northeastern 1st Summer School of Vibrometry, a two-day immersive program dedicated to advancing knowledge and hands-on experience in laser Doppler vibrometry (LDV). Hosted at Northeastern University, this event brings together experts, researchers, and students for in-depth technical talks, interactive demonstrations, and collaborative learning. With sessions covering LDV fundamentals, advanced MEMS applications, and structural dynamics, participants will gain practical insights through hands-on training using state-of-the-art equipment, including single-point, microscopic, and scanning vibrometers. Join us as we explore the cutting edge of non-contact vibration measurement technology.

The event is free of charge. Limited capacity, registration accepted on a first come, first serve basis. Breakfast and lunch will be provided.
