Conference Registration
All conference attendees were required to register, either through online early registration or on-site at the venue. Online conference registration closed after the early deadline.
The 32nd International Congress on High-Speed Imaging and Photonics brought together leading scientists, engineers, and researchers from around the world to share the latest advances in capturing motion at extraordinary speeds. Held at the University of Twente in the Netherlands, the congress showcased innovative studies spanning fluid dynamics, bubble mechanics, and ultrafast phenomena. Attendees explored how high-speed imaging continues to push the boundaries of what can be observed, from microgravity conditions to viscous folding dynamics, revealing discoveries that were previously beyond the reach of conventional photography and videography techniques.
The program featured a rich blend of contributed talks, poster sessions, and invited presentations from distinguished speakers across a wide range of application fields. Technical sessions highlighted cutting-edge technologies including ultrafast microscopy, super-resolution imaging, and high-speed atomic force microscopy, alongside live-cell studies that capture biological processes in real time. The congress also placed special emphasis on the artistic dimension of high-speed photography, celebrating work that merges scientific precision with visual beauty, and recognizing outstanding contributions through a series of awards and honorable mentions.
Beyond the technical program, the congress served as a premier meeting point for industry leaders and academic pioneers to connect, exchange ideas, and forge collaborations. An accompanying exhibition featured exhibitors demonstrating the latest instrumentation, camera systems, and photonics solutions designed for demanding high-speed applications. The venue at the University of Twente provided a welcoming setting for informal discussions, networking opportunities, and the exchange of knowledge that often sparks the next generation of scientific breakthroughs in imaging science and photonics.
The congress reflected a strong commitment to scientific excellence and the advancement of high-speed imaging as a vital research tool across disciplines. From fundamental studies of fast-moving fluids and bubbles to applied work in engineering, physics, and the life sciences, the meeting summarized the state of the art while pointing toward future directions. Participants left with a deeper appreciation for how high-speed photonics continues to illuminate the invisible, rapid world around us, and with renewed inspiration to apply these powerful techniques in their own research and development efforts.
Online registration is now closed. The early registration deadline was 31 August 2018. On-site registration was available during the conference at the Waaier building, University of Twente.
