Workshop: High-precision BRDF Measurement

The european consortium on optical metrology for material appearance, BxDiff, as well as GDR Appamat and Institut d'Optique Graduate School propose a two-day winter school on high-precision BRDF measurement, including lessons on the state of the art, and a workshop on current research issues.

 


New requirements in terms of product appearance characterization, regarding gloss in particular, generate a growing demand in and a varied offer of measurement devices. This rapid evolution reinforces the need to develop reference tools and high precision primary metrology, including precise measurand definitions, primary standards, and high-precision instruments.  Most recent progresses in this domain, and same related problems that arise, are the subject of this two-day winter school co-organized by the european consortium BxDiff, founded by Euramet and gathering several metrological institutes and companies from Europe, GDR Appamat, and the Institut d’Optique Graduate School.

Registration to the event is free, but mandatory: see the registration form below

tac

It consists of digital (via the “TousAntiCovid” French app) or paper presentation of one of the following three health proofs:

1) a full vaccination schedule according to French rules:

    • 7 days after the 2nd injection of Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca,
    • 28 days after the injection of Johnson & Johnson,
    • 7 days after an injection in people who previously contracted COVID-19,

2) or a negative PCR or antigenic test less than 48 hours,

3) or a positive RT-PCR or antigenic result demonstrating recovery from Covid-19, at least 11 days and less than 6 months old.

You will need this document also for travelling and for eating in restaurants.

Note: If you have been vaccinated in one of the following countries: European Union Member States, Andorra, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Norway, Switzerland, United Kingdom (England and Wales only), you already have an EU Digital COVID Certificate, which is accepted in France, and you do not need a separate COVID certificate.
