Synopsis

TOM3 will highlight significant technology trends, emerging technologies and associated prospective developments in the field of optics design, tolerancing and fabrication. This conference provides a forum for all aspects of optics design and fabrication, ranging from micro to large-scale optics and from high value one-off to mass-produced components including lessons learned papers on special design and manufacturing issues. One main goal of the meeting is to provide a better link between the design, the manufacturing, and the characterization of optical components and systems. Consequently, special attention will be paid to the collaboration between design and fabrication to generate cost-effective and manufacturable optical systems.

INDUSTRIAL POSTER SESSIONS

Already held within the World of Photonics Congress in 2017, the platform is again available at EOSAM 2018. We provide this platform for companies to enable extra visibility and chance to present their know how to the conference attendees.

In this reviewed industrial poster session companies are entitled to present their key technology competences on a poster that will be presented during the whole time of the conference in the conference session room. Posters presenting competences and know how rather than products will be preferred.

Submit your poster for review here: https://www.conftool.com/eosam2018
Select "poster presentation" and remark that the poster is for the industrial poster session (add a note in the "").

Companies are asked to deliver the poster onsite (either personally or by postal mail). The fee for posters is 100 EUR (excl. VAT 24%). Companies with VAT number will be exempted of VAT (VAT number needs to be indicated in the payment phase).
