What is this standard about?
Micro-optics and microlens arrays are found in many modern optical devices and can have mass market applications, for example in 2D and 3D televisions, mobile phones and portable computer displays. The expanded market in microlens arrays has generated a need to agree on basic terms and definitions. This part of ISO 14880 therefore aims to clarify the terms used in the field of microlens arrays.
Who is this standard for?
Microlens array and systems manufacturers, suppliers, purchasers and users.
Why should you use this standard?
It defines terms for microlens arrays. It applies to microlens arrays which consist of arrays of very small lenses formed inside or on one or more surfaces of a common substrate and systems. The aim is to improve the compatibility and interchangeability of lens arrays from different suppliers and to enhance the development of technology using microlens arrays.
What’s changed since the last update?
The standard has been systematically reviewed by technical experts to ensure its continued market relevance. After a technical revision, this standard supersedes the 2005 version.
