SCOPE TO THE ‘PHILIPS RESEARCH BOOK SERIES’
As one of the largest private sector research establishments in the world, Philips
Research is shaping the future with technology inventions that meet peoples’ needs and
desires in the digital age. While the ultimate user benefits of these inventions end up
on the high-street shelves, the often pioneering scientific and technological basis
usually remains less visible.
This ‘Philips Research Book Series’ has been set up as a way for Philips researchers
to contribute to the scientific community by publishing their comprehensive results and
theories in book form.
