From June 23 to 25, we would have presented our sensor technology innovations for the first time at the "Sensor + Test" in Nuremberg – the leading forum for sensors, measuring and testing technologies worldwide. Despite the cancellation of the "Sensor + Test" for the year 2020, the new developments of the FMD remain relevant.
