Online Conference Program
The Applied Industrial Optics (AIO) meetings will include not only optical technologies that have been successfully applied to industrial/commercial
applications, but also exciting, cutting-edge advances in optical components and/or systems, which have been identified as promising new technologies
within the field of applied optics. The meeting will attract presenters from diverse market sectors, as we have in the past, such as environmental,
medical, defense, oil & gas, food & beverage, and pharmaceutical. With respect to applied optical technologies, there will be discussions which
highlight the reasons behind the use of optics within an application in addition to any difficulties encountered in applying the technology to the
application.
A number of distinguished invited speakers have been invited to present at the meeting. In addition, the organizers have planned a number of special events to make your meeting experience more enjoyable!
