Current trends and latest advancements
Polytec technology seminar features the latest advancements in non-contact measurements: laser Doppler vibrometry (LDV), surface metrology and acoustic beamforming. Find out how these technologies are used for static and dynamic characterization in the fields of Automotive, Manufacturing, Aerospace, NDT, Ultrasonics and more. Polytec experts will also be on hand to answer any of your questions about current and future measurement needs.
We will be presenting the latest developments in our technology, including live demonstrations of the following systems:
- Modal testing with the RoboVib Test Station
- Portable Scanning Vibrometer (PSV-500)
- Surface Metrology Systems (TopMap Pro.Surf and Micro.View)
- Production testing with the IVS-500 Vibrometer
- Next generation of vibrometry - VibroFlex QTec
- Acoustic Imaging Solutions
Find out how Polytec's technology can provide advanced vibro-acoustic measurement capabilities important for development of today’s products.

Guest speaker Dr. Desmond Bourgeois
Dr. Desmond Bourgeois obtained his B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering from Florida A&M University in 2009 and subsequently earned an M.S. in Welding Engineering and a Ph.D. from Ohio State University in 2014 and 2015. His doctoral research focused on developing a new testing method to evaluate hydrogen-assisted cracking in dissimilar metal welds under cathodic protection. After completing his studies, Dr. Bourgeois spent five years in the Petroleum Industry as a Welding Engineer, Material Specialist, and Quality Lead, specializing in nondestructive evaluation (NDE) and pipeline installations. He has since concentrated on research in in-situ monitoring for additive manufacturing and advancing ultrasonic probe technology for NDE.
