DYNAMIC IMAGING ANALYTICS LTD (DIAL)
Based at Milton Keynes Business Centre, Dynamic Imaging Analytics work with national and international partners specialising in the development and delivery of high performance imaging solutions. Our approach is built upon a bottom-up understanding of imaging detectors, founded upon the fundamental physics of devices.
Our team is led by Dr. Neil Murray, who has 15 years experience in developing novel imaging solutions for space missions and terrestrial applications, ranging from flagship space missions to Formula One.
DIAL also devise and partner on unique projects to engage the public and schoolchildren with science and engineering. As well as leading pioneering outreach projects such as the SμGRE-1 mission, we also exhibit at STEM events and give talks in schools and colleges.
OBJECTIVES
To provide solutions to unique and challenging requirements
To develop and optimise bespoke camera systems
To find new applications for existing and new technologies
To generate rich and alluring public engagement materials
To inspire people into science and engineering
