The team designed and prototyped a novel integrated opto-mechanical assembly used to accurately and remotely measure surface temperature in hostile combustion environments such as industrial furnaces. The team utilized innovative techniques in material science and developed an algorithm based on physical optical models that transforms acquired signals into temperature readings.
