OP Structure:
OP's structure varies depending on the needs of the organization to manage the development of standards. At this time, a single standards body, ASC OP, oversees all standards development activities.
Detailed technical work and standards development is performed by a series of smaller task forces, which are convened when needed and disbanded when their work is complete. There are currently
five active task forces within ASC OP.
-
TF1: Optical Glass
Scope: Establish uniform practices for stating and interpreting specifications, tolerances, and functional requirements for optical glass that is used to fabricate lenses
and other optical elements such as prisms, windows, light pipes, etc, used in optical assemblies, systems, instruments, or other related uses.
-
ANSI/OEOSC OP3.001-2001: American National Standard for
Optics and Electro-Optical Instruments - Optical Glass
TF2: Surface Imperfections
Scope: Establish uniform practices for stating, interpreting, and inspecting surface
imperfections for transmissive and reflective optical elements and assemblies.
-
ANSI/OEOSC OP1.002-2017 Optics
and Electro-Optical Instruments - Optical Elements
and Cemented Optical Components - Surface
Imperfections.
TF3: Wavefront Measurement
Scope: Establish uniform practices for defining, measuring and analyzing surface and transmitted wavefronts for optical elements and assemblies.
TF4: Adoption of ISO 10110 as an American National Standard
Scope: Establish uniform practices for format and notation of optical drawings based on the applicable parts of ISO 10110 and its assoicated standards.
