Last friday 20th of November we had around 120 students visiting ICFO from different institutions which shared small projects related with optics and photonics among them and among ICFOnians. The initiative was organized by the Outreach department at ICFO, under the name of “Young Photonics Congress”.

To present their projects, they brought posters and explained to the interested audience all the making process and the science behind. They had the chance to share knowledge with students from different institutions, high school teachers and the ICFO community.

Some of the ICONS members attended to the poster session to learn about the projects, and to ask the students relevant questions that could lead them to deepen into the understanding of the studied phenomena. I found myself particularly interested in a project of eye movement detection. I was catched by a very well structured poster and a nice explanation of the built device and the software used (open source).
