Marcin Adamczyk
I am an engineer with expertise in mechatronics, and I began my professional career primarily working as a mechanical and optomechanical designer. For many years, I have been associated with the Faculty of Mechatronics at the Warsaw University of Technology, where I have carried out and continue to carry out research projects, mainly in the fields of 3D and 4D measurements, AR and VR. Initially, as a member of the informal Optographx OGX group centered around Professor Robert Sitnik, later as a research assistant professor and independent researcher at the Institute of Photonics and Micromechanics.
I dedicated my scientific work to research related to the influence of temperature on 3D scanners using structured light projection method. The research I conducted on successive measurement stands I built resulted in developing theoretical and practical foundations for Athermalized technology – a technology that enables the elimination of randomness from temperature-induced image drift observed in cameras with CMOS and CCD sensors, consequently allowing for the construction of a compensation model (more about temperature-induced image drift in this post: What is temperature-induced image drift).
Currently, my professional activities focus on the following areas:
- supervising and managing engineering and R&D departments (low and high-level programming, mechanical design, electronics),
- securing funding for R&D department development,
- mapping, building, and improving processes to arrange, facilitate, and make more effective cooperation between engineering departments and other departments in enterprises,
- research activities in the area of temperature influence on optical measurement methods,
- conducting lectures and classes at the Faculty of Mechatronics, Warsaw University of Technology.
