Plenary presentations by NASA's Lee Feinberg and MIT's Jeffrey Shapiro
WASHINGTON - The Optica Imaging Congress convenes 14-17 August 2023 at the Boston Park Plaza Hotel, Boston, Massachusetts. Presented in a hybrid format, the congress features six co-located meetings and two plenary sessions bringing together academics, industrial and defense research perspectives to provide a comprehensive view of the latest developments in imaging and applied optical sciences. The four-day technical conference features invited speakers and special events for all attendees.
"Advances in imaging and applied optical sciences are transforming bio-medical research and various non-invasive diagnostics and treatment clinical technologies," said Amit Ashok, Optica Imaging Chair, University of Arizona, USA. "This congress is at the cutting edge of advances in imaging and applied optics, as well as their application to critical scientific, industrial, military, and medical challenges."
Lee Feinberg, James Webb Space Telescope Element Manager, NASA will expand our knowledge of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). In his talk, "The James Webb Space Telescope and Beyond," Feinberg will discuss NASA's scientific motivation and optical technology development of the telescope.
Jeffrey H. Shapiro, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Research Laboratory of Electronics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, will discuss the challenges quantum applications offer to imaging. In his talk, "A Whirlwind Tour of Quantum Imaging and Radar," Shapiro will survey imaging results from quantum to quantum mimetic and quantum-inspired.
This year's six co-located meetings include:
- 3D Image Acquisition and Display: Technology, Perception and Applications (3D)
- Computational Optical Sensing and Imaging (COSI)
- Digital Holography and Three-Dimensional Imaging (DH)
- Flat Optics
- Imaging Systems and Applications (IS)
Propagation Through and Characterization of Atmospheric and Oceanic Phenomena (pcAOP)
