In the ever-evolving landscape of metrology, the digital era presents both challenges and opportunities that demand insightful exploration and innovative solutions. At the forefront of this endeavor stands Dr. Sascha Eichstädt, an esteemed figure in the realm of metrology and the leader of the "Metrology for Digital Transformation" department at the renowned Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB).
With a rich academic background, Dr. Eichstädt brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to his role. Having obtained his Diploma in Mathematics from Humboldt University Berlin in 2008 and completed his PhD in Theoretical Physics at the Technical University Berlin in 2012, he has been actively engaged in the field of metrology since 2008. Dr. Eichstädt's journey at PTB commenced with his involvement in the "Mathematical Modeling and Data Analysis" group, focusing on measurement uncertainty for time series. His dedication and passion for advancing metrology led him to assume leadership roles, including his current position as the head of the "Metrology for Digital Transformation" department.
Dr. Eichstädt's influence extends beyond PTB, as evidenced by his leadership of various international working groups and committees dedicated to digital transformation in metrology. Notably, he chaired the EURAMET working group "Metrology for digital transformation" from 2020 to 2022 and currently presides over the OIML Digitalisation Task Group and the IMEKO Technical Committee on Digitalisation.
In anticipation of the IMEKO World Congress 2024 in Hamburg, Germany, Dr. Eichstädt will be orchestrating a thought-provoking workshop under the auspices of TC6 Digitalisation. This workshop aims to unite experts, stakeholders, and industry representatives in a collaborative exploration of the future of metrology in the digital age. Attendees can expect in-depth discussions on pivotal topics such as the role of metrology in Smart Cities, the integration of AI in conformity assessment, and the evolution of quality infrastructure in a document-less era.
As we stand on the cusp of a paradigm shift in metrology, Dr. Sascha Eichstädt's workshop promises to be a pivotal moment in shaping the trajectory of the field. Mark your calendars and stay tuned for further updates on IMEKO 2024 – an event that embodies the convergence of expertise, innovation, and visionary leadership in metrology. #IMEKO2024 #Metrology #DigitalTransformation
