Optics, Photonics and Lasers

Super STEM Saturday

Explore interactive demonstrations and hands-on science activities at Super STEM Saturday, including rocket launches, build-a-robot stations, model displays, scientist chats and a obstacle course. The event is free and open to the public. Complimentary parking available in Lots E, F, and H. Super STEM Saturday is designed to expose and engage kids of all ages and their families to the diverse and exciting fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, known as the STEM disciplines.

UC San Diego Department of Astronomy & Astrophysics

We will have multiple hands-on demonstrations related to the science of astrophysics, including spectroscopy, types of light such as infrared, telescopes to look at the Sun, optics, and the size/scale of objects in the Universe.

Leidos - Security Enterprise Solutions

The Leidos SES booth will present a brief overview of x-rays and radiation, how they interact with matter, and how they are detected. We’ll explain how the science is used by Leidos in some simple PowerPoint slides. We’ll have an interactive demo showing how cosmic rays are detected, and show the different response from an x-ray source.

ASML

ASML employee volunteers will facilitate hands-on STEM activities for children in line with what we've done at past EXPO DAY events.

DRS Daylight Solutions

DRS Daylight Solutions is the world’s leading provider of best-in-class Molecular Detection and Imaging products based on mid-infrared laser technology.
Our booth will include a variety of displays and hands-on demonstrations all centered on the exciting field of Photonics.
WHAT IS PHOTONICS?
Photonics is the physical science of light waves. It deals with the science behind the generation, detection and manipulation of light.

California State University Program for Biotechnology (CSUBIOTECH)

Host a booth to showcase the work of biotechnology in the Cal State University system. CSUBIOTECH provides grants and awards, organizes the annual CSU Biotechnology Symposium, promotes industry-responsive curricular innovations, and serves as a liaison between the CSU and government, regional and biotechnology industry partners, including philanthropic partners.

Naval Information Warfare Pacific

AI vs Human: Can you sort objects (different vehicle types) faster than a robot? The human participant will be blind folded or obstructed from the view of the bin of different objects. The goal of the challenge will be for human and robot to sort the objects(vehicles) into three different bins in a set time limit (1 minute). This fun interactive experience highlights the core disciplines (computer science, robotics, and machine learning) of our science and engineering workforce.

ASML

Bring your robot to life by learning how to code! Create your own program, press play and watch your robot carry out the action! Try your hand at drawing with 3D pens - a combination of art and technology!
