University guest lectures
Free DIC lectures for engineering students
Help your students connect engineering theory with what happens in a real test. Delta XD offers free guest lectures and practical Digital Image Correlation (DIC) demonstrations for second- and third-year engineering students at UK universities.
A practical session, tailored to your module
We deliver a 1–2 hour session at your university, combining DIC principles with live 2D and 3D demonstrations. We agree the examples with you to suit your module and your students’ existing knowledge, whether you teach mechanics, materials, dynamics or experimental methods.
Students see how images can reveal displacement and deformation, and how strain varies across a surface. They take part in a simple test and learn to interpret the results, with time for questions and project ideas. Longer sessions allow small-group participation; for larger cohorts, we project the live demonstration.
We bring the equipment
Delta XD provides the DIC equipment, laptop and demonstration materials. You provide a suitable room, display and power, with setup access agreed in advance.
We can also discuss support for final-year projects, from feasibility and test planning to interpreting results. Any equipment access or measurement time is agreed for each accepted proposal, subject to suitability and availability.
Arrange a free DIC lecture
Tell us your university, discipline, module, year group, cohort size and preferred dates. We’ll get in touch to discuss a session that fits your teaching.
