Vision and Color Summer Data Blast
Vision and Color Summer Data Blast
You are invited to join the Optica Vision and Color Technical Division for their annual summer data blast!
Get Involved
Every year, the technical groups of the Optica Vision and Color Technical Division organize a Summer data blast. Each session will be hosted by one of our division’s technical groups and feature short talks related to their area of the field. This year’s topics range from the aging of the eye to applications of artificial intelligence for low vision. The sessions include ample time for questions and discussion following the talks.
Data blast sessions will take place on Wednesdays at 12:00 EDT (UTC-04:00) starting on 07 August 2024 and running through 04 September 2024. You only need to register once to join us for any of the five data blast sessions. Once you register, you will receive your unique Zoom link by email, and you can use this link to attend every week.
