Chris Chitty

Research Laboratory Technical Manager

School of Built Environment

Chris is highly regarded as an innovator, and has excellent relationships with end-users. 

His reputation as a technology-focussed innovator with an unusual approach to solutions means he is often approached by individuals and companies seeking advice on products or technologies.

 

Through his work with the “Let’s Get Inventing” TV show he was further able to inspire, advise and assist young inventers to create and patent their dreams.

 

Chris has vast professional experience in the robotics and patient simulation, and is presently researching the unintended effects of modern lighting on humans and other biological lifeforms.
