The Unexpected Discovery with Caltech

Mory Gharib (PhD ’83), the Hans W. Liepmann Professor of Aeronautics and Medical Engineering and director of Caltech’s Graduate Aerospace Laboratories and Center for Autonomous Systems and Technologies, will share the story of how his work to develop an advanced underwater camera for detecting tiny bubbles under naval vessels led to the creation of a dental imaging device.

We’ll see other advancements in dental technology as we tour SprintRay with its president and Caltech Associates board member Erich Kreidler. He will show us the company’s inventions, including a 3D printer that allows dentists to create custom crowns for patients while they wait.
