Problem Solver

Vassilios Albanis

Techniques Vassilios Albanis Uses:

A structured, step by step method that evaluates an idea or concept from the basic preposition, through technical feasibility and merit as well as market potential.

It asks the right questions regarding the potential of a concept and removes risk from the initial phases of spinning out an idea or developing a product.

Vassilios Albanis's Problem Solving Experience:

  1. I worked with a start up to identify the most suitable solution of a infra red viewable safety sign and identified a range of phase change materials.
  2. I worked as the applications scientist and commercialised a lensless imaging technology.
  3. I have organised a sensors and instrumentation event and assisted companies and academics networking and exchanging ideas and innovation.
  4. I have organised and held two events on photovoltaics, feed in tariff and photovoltaic opportunities in the UK.
  5. I have reviewed the operations of the UK supply chain in the automotive, rail and marine sectors focussing on innovation and new technologies.
  6. I have reviewed and evaluated a range of combined heat and power generators for a company interested in purchasing such a system.
  7. I developed a novel direct UV writing method to produce planar optical circuits which was later patented.
  8. I sourced a biodegradable material for a new type of cattle bolus which to the introduction of a new range of products.
  9. I reviewed and produced a literature review of Gallium and developed a novel photonic switch using the optical reflectivity properties of liquid gallium.
  10. I worked on researching and developing photosensitive materials for use with UV writing to produce planar optical circuits.
