This highly interdisciplinary meeting is related to science, technology and applications that covers research areas related to the acquisition, processing, display and applications of (non-holographic) 3D information as well as the perception, human factors and visual comfort of 3D information displays. Topic includes the research related to scientific understanding of 3D information display and perception, technological innovation on 3D image acquisition or display methods and task-specific design and applications of 3D acquisition or display technology is of particular interest. Application areas of interest include, but are not limited to, virtual reality, augmented reality, biomedicine, microscopy, endoscopy, healthcare, 3D sensing, 3D information processing, autonomous vehicle, wearable displays and entertainment.


Computational Optical Sensing and Imaging (COSI)

18 - 21 Aug 2025

Computational sensing and imaging are processes that tightly combine optics, sensing and processing to acquire task relevant information. They use the strong coupling with computation to provide an operational capability that is impossible to realize using conventional means, that addresses a dimensionality mismatch or that reduces the cost of making measurements compared with conventional means. 


Digital Holography and Three-Dimensional Imaging (DH)

18 - 21 Aug 2025

DH provides a forum for science, technology, applications of digital holographic, three-dimensional imaging and display methods. Topic areas include interferometry, quantitative phase imaging, transport of intensity methods, 3D imaging and display systems including VR/AR, computer generated holograms, metasurface holograms, digital holography with various light sources including coherent to incoherent and X-ray to terahertz waves, polarization and dynamic holography, compressive holography, specific image and signal processing and digital holographic methods for microscopy, tomography, optical processing, lithography, metrology, scattering media inspection, remote sensing, non-linear optical systems, bio- and nano-photonics.


Imaging Systems and Applications (IS)

18 - 21 Aug 2025

IS covers the latest advances in the research, design and engineering of imaging devices and systems used in medical, consumer, industrial and military applications. The topical meeting highlights the applications of imaging systems in all areas, including microscopy, remote sensing, photography, medical devices, consumer products, airborne and astronomical observations and cinematography. It brings together experts from many different scientific and engineering disciplines who contribute to the design and integration of optics, sensors, digital processing and displays in imaging systems.
