IEEE Signal Processing Society Ushers in a New Era

When the IEEE Signal Processing Society was initially established as the Professional Group on Audio in 1948, signal processing as we know it didn’t exist. The founders of what would eventually become IEEE’s first society could not have foreseen the evolution of their discipline’s once-narrow scope.

Now, signal processing and data science are fundamental in a world so data-driven and fast-paced that their efforts are near-invisible while their impact are immeasurable. Our members have always been the center of that impact, driving the groundbreaking technology that enables our interconnected world. Smartphones, home assistants, self-driving cars – signal processing makes the once-unimaginable possible.

That is why, during his State of the Society address at ICASSP 2019 in Brighton, UK, SPS President Ali H. Sayed unveiled a token of the next era of our discipline, of our Society, and of our community:

The new logo for the IEEE Signal Processing Society captures the spirit of our future – Global. Connected. Dynamic. Forward-thinking. And ready to embark on what’s ahead. We’re excited for you to join us as SPS ushers in an era full of possibility and opportunity for our members, the engineering community, and the world we enable together.
