About

Jens Guehring is a researcher whose work centers on optical metrology, industrial inspection systems, and multisensor measurement technologies. Based at the University of Stuttgart, Guehring contributed to a pioneering interdisciplinary research initiative bringing together seven university institutes to develop a sophisticated multi-sensor measurement robot designed for industrial close-range inspection. His work tackled fundamental challenges in integrating optical sensors with actuator systems, enabling automated object recognition and active exploration of three-dimensional parts — capabilities with significant implications for quality control in manufacturing environments. Among his notable contributions is the development and calibration of multisensor measuring systems that combine sensor-actor coupling with CAD-based object recognition, advancing the practical feasibility of automated industrial inspection. His 1998 paper on the experimental measurement system for industrial inspection remains his most cited work, with seven citations, reflecting its foundational role in demonstrating the viability of such integrated robotic systems. His research laid important groundwork for the broader field of optical 3D measurement, particularly in showing how collaborative, multi-institutional projects could successfully translate complex sensor fusion concepts into working industrial prototypes. His contributions remain relevant to researchers exploring automation and precision measurement in manufacturing contexts.
