Abstract

In the last 10 to 15 years, a considerable body of international standards literature has been published on both mechanical and optical design. We discuss the influence of these internationally developed standards on the design and fabrication of optical systems. We conclude that while there are large benefits to be gained from using these international standards, there will have to be a substantial educational effort at all levels from project scientist to worker on the shop floor to take advantage of the benefits. Many sources to help in this education process are outlined.
