An invitation to participate in SPIE Smart Structures + NDE 2026

We look forward to seeing you back in Vancouver, Canada

Present and discuss the latest research with colleagues in 2026


SPIE Smart Structures + Nondestructive Evaluation looks forward to gathering again in the city of Vancouver, in beautiful British Columbia, Canada. At this meeting you’ll experience four days of thought-provoking sessions, plenary talks, and networking events that will bring the sensors community together again in the water-side location of Vancouver.

This meeting represents a unique community for reporting state-of-the-art research and development in advanced materials and sensing systems for nondestructive evaluation and structural health monitoring—technologies enabling the future of automotive, aerospace, civil infrastructure, and biomedical engineering.

Come share with—and learn from—world experts, researchers, and innovators discussing advancements in nondestructive evaluation technologies, info-tech sensors and wearable systems, EAPAD devices, and more.

We hope you will consider joining your colleagues in Vancouver.

Until then—with much anticipation,
