Standards may not grab headlines, but they quietly shape the world. In this episode of Rays and Waves, we shine a light on the unsung hero of modern optical engineering: optical standards.
From the fiber optics enabling global connectivity, via laser grocery scanners, to the precision lenses the James Webb telescope, none of it works without agreed-upon rules and measurements. These standards ensure interoperability, safety, and reliability across millions of devices.
Joining Daniel and Steve is Eric Herman, a dedicated volunteer helping to develop and maintain these critical frameworks. Together, we’ll explore how standards are created, the challenges of keeping pace with cutting-edge technology, and why this work matters more than ever.
