At the Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology IPT in Aachen, we are creating the production of the future with more than 450 employees – digital, sustainable and resilient. In the department , we deal with optical metrology systems in the context of production metrology. This includes modification and sensor fusion based on commercial sensing equipment, development of new metrology systems and integration into production facilities. 

Within the scope of your thesis, you will investigate the possibility to capture a light ray’s wavefront in high resolution utilizing an adaptive sensor concept. The wavefront serves as an indicator for beam quality in an optical set-up and consecutively for the assessment of involved optical components and t...
