Labs will be held in smaller groups on the following dates:
11/2, 19/2, 20/2 to 24/2, 27/2 and 28/2.
A one-day combined ‘laboration’ and excursion will be held at two sensor companies in Västerås 19/2.
We will go by cars or bus from the entrance of the Ångström Laboratory 10:15 (sharp!). This day is fixed for all participants of the course!


Possible lab-days at Magister: 19/2, 20/2 to 24/2, 27/2 and 28/2.

4-8 groups (A-H) a' 2 persons
4 groups work the lab in parallel

We have two labs:

  • ultrasonic sensors (US) (lab instr. in pdf) ; Matlab program for RLC parameter estimation
  • electromagnetic sensors (EM) (lab instr. in pdf)
  • We can receive 4 groups simultaneously: 2 for ultrasonic and 2 for electromagnetic sensors.

    Please split into groups, 2 persons in each, and choose two suitable days.
