Optical MEMS devices are among the key components for LIDAR for autonomous vehicles, drones, and robots as well as for consumer devices such as cell phones and tablets. For successful adoption of MEMS devices for commercial and industrial LIDAR applications, it is critical to promote research and development of optical MEMS devices while incorporating a system point of view, such as a seamless and efficient integration of peripheral components along with MEMS.
In this special section on MEMS LIDAR, we welcome papers addressing theoretical, experimental, and scientific concepts advancing all aspects of the state of the art of optical MEMS-based LIDAR. The topic includes but is not limited to:
All papers will undergo the standard peer-review process for the Journal of Optical Microsystems. Manuscripts should be submitted to SPIE according to the journal guidelines. A cover letter indicating that the submission is intended for this special section should be included. For more information, please contact the guest editor at ytakashima@optics.arizona.edu. Papers are published as soon as they are accepted for publication and final proofs are approved. Early submission is encouraged.
