SPIE Defense + Commercial Sensing 2020 Digital Forum
Thank you for a great Digital Forum
SPIE Defense + Commercial Sensing Digital Forum 2020 had more than 3,600 people sign up for the opportunity to participate in the free event. Authors shared emerging research and technology advances in sensors, infrared technology, laser systems, spectral imaging, radar, LIDAR, AI/machine learning, and more. The community heard from experts working on materials, components, systems, and analytics for defense, security, and commercial applications.
Those who signed up will have access to the Digital Forum Proceedings for free. Thank you for your participation, and we look forward to having you join SPIE Defense + Commercial Sensing in 2021.
A welcome to the community
SPIE President John Greivenkamp welcomed attendees to Defense + Commercial Sensing 2020 Digital Forum.
Symposium Chairs Jay Kumler and John Pellegrino outlined what this meeting means to our community and overviews what to expect throughout the coming week, with an aspriational note to plan to be together again in Orlando in 2021.
