2017 Advanced Sensors and Instrumentation Webinar

Presentations from the 2017 Advanced Sensors and Instrumentation Webinar held October 18-19, 2017.

October 19, 2017

The Nuclear Energy Enabling Technologies (NEET) Advanced Sensors and Instrumentation (ASI) program, in coordination with the Office of Nuclear Reactor Technologies and the Office of Fuel Cycle Technologies, conducted an Instrumentations and Controls (I&C) webinar on October 18-19, 2017.

This webinar provided an opportunity to review the research and development being conducted in the areas of sensors, controls, communications, digital instrumentation, human-machine technologies, and related areas across the Office of Nuclear Energy (NE) and to promote greater coordination among the various NE R&D programs.

The meeting presentations are available here.
