Stretch out those legs and move your tray tables and seat backs to an upright position, because the on-schedule transport-themed October issue of Electro Optics is pulling into the station now.
Sit down, relax and read up on this deep dive into additive manufacturing, including how the process is helping the INEOS Britannia America’s Cup team to rule the waves, how 3D printing can be applied to the production of motorcycle parts for Astra Honda and many other applications.
Meanwhile, the dream of catching a movie on your morning commute in a self-driving car may still be some way off, but smaller, sharper and more intelligent displays are already becoming a huge part of the in-car experience. Here we look into the role played by spectroscopy in the quality control of display manufacturing.
Industry examples
Looking further into the use of both spectroscopy and additive manufacturing technologies in manufacturing and inspection, we have featured case studies on how Avantes uses optical emission spectroscopy (OES) to add real-time quality control monitoring to its metal 3D printing processes, and an investigation into Admesy’s use of a spectroradiometer to enhance toy inspection.
Changing lanes
On the other side of the track, this month’s issue also features sit-down conversations with Orca CEO Richard Murray on quantum computing’s impact on telecoms, and EPIC’s Antonio Castelo – Technology Manager for Bio-Medical Lasers – asks HORIBA France’s new President Laurent Fullana about his recent appointment.
Elsewhere in EPIC news, Carlos Lee drops the curtain on a recent European delegation’s visit to SEMICON, Taiwan’s microelectronics event; we look into the role of optics in imaging technology and highlight some of the major suppliers and there’s also a preview of next month’s Photonex 2024 event in Manchester, which will feature a number of talks and panel discussions with selected Photonics100 honourees.
