Brian Anthony's Biography



Brian Anthony, Director, Massachusetts Institute Of Technology

Dr. Anthony is the Director of MIT’s Master of Engineering in Manufacturing Program, Co-Director of the Medical Electronic Device Realization Center, and Lead for Education for the MIT Skoltech Initiative. With over 20 years experience in product realization – Dr. Anthony won an Emmy (from the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences) in broadcast technical innovation – Dr. Anthony designs instruments and techniques to monitor and control physical systems. His work involves systems analysis and design, calling upon mechanical, electrical and optical engineering, along with computer science and optimization, to create solutions.

The focus of Dr. Anthony’s research is in computational instrumentation - the design of instruments and techniques to measure and control complex physical systems. His research includes the development of instrumentation and measurement solutions for manufacturing systems and medical diagnostics and imaging systems. His research in optical and photogrammetric metrology focuses on creating production-ready instruments capable of measuring three dimensional micron-scale features distributed over a meters-scale area. His group has developed a 3D high-speed profilometer for inspection of micro-manufactured transparent parts and is now is developing high throughput inspection techniques for monitoring and control of roll-to-roll processes for continuous high-rate production of flexible electronic systems.

He has extensive experience in market driven technology innovation, product realization, and business entrepreneurship and commercialization at the intersection between information technology and advanced manufacturing. His teaching interests include the modeling of large-scale systems in a wide variety of decision-making domains and the development of optimization algorithms and software for analyzing and designing such systems.

In microfluidic device manufacturing precise micro and nano-sized features are distributed over large areas. In order to inspect for defects or employ statistical process control on micro-manufactured parts, metrological instruments must collect data with submicron resolution at a rate fast enough to keep up with the pace of production. Commercial inspection instruments fall short on meeting these challenging demands.  New inspection systems are required which can provide real-time measurements of transparent polymer microfluidic devices.
