Research Interests
Mr Spyridakis’ research interests are concerned with marine technology, meteorology, physics of light and the development of specialized software and hardware for in situ autonomous measurement systems and analysis applications. The purpose of these applications is to develop equipment and software to meet the specific needs of applied sciences, such as the marine sciences, as well to develop protocols for the most appropriate maintenance and repair of scientific equipment. Another area of interest is the calibration of laboratory and field sensors and equipment.
