On March 19th, the Taylor Drinks had a special twist, courtesy of our hosts from Senserion. Maarten, a High-Tech alumnus now working at the company, joined us and brought along more than just snacks—he also shared real packaging samples and production chips, giving everyone a hands-on feel for their cutting-edge tech. It was eye-opening to see how far miniaturization has come in just 20 years—these sensors are tiny, but seriously powerful.
Senserion, our very first international guest, kicked off the evening with a guest lecture on MEMS, offering a fascinating look into the world of high-precision environmental sensors. Later, as the drinks were flowing, we gathered for a short company presentation. We found out that Senserion has strong roots in research, having started as a spin-off from ETH Zürich. Plus, their headquarters are located right next to the stunning Lake Zürich—not a bad place to be pushing the frontiers of sensor technology!
And the goodies? Super cool temperature and humidity sensors you can actually use at home or in your lab setup.
