Leveraging standard geospatial representations for industrial augmented reality

May 1, 2020
Author(s)
Teodor I. Vernica, Aaron M. Hanke, William Z. Bernstein
Due to its tremendous potential, Augmented Reality (AR) has experienced a recent surge in adoption and integration within the manufacturing enterprise. While industrial AR has been successfully implemented and shown to have significant benefits in a

Low-loss, high-bandwidth fiber-to-chip coupling using capped adiabatic tapered fibers

May 1, 2020
Author(s)
Saeed Khan, Jeff Shainline, Richard Mirin, Sae Woo Nam, Sonia Buckley, Jeff Chiles
We demonstrate adiabatically tapered fibers terminating in sub-micron tips that are clad with a higher-index material for coupling to an on-chip waveguide. This cladding enables coupling to a high-index waveguide without losing light to the buried oxide. A

Basic Metrology for 2020

April 30, 2020
Author(s)
Stephan Schlamminger, Richard Davis
2019 was a big year for Metrology. The international system of units was revised on World Metrology Day, May 20th, that year [1]. What will 2020 bring? In this article we discuss five promising advances that we have on a watchlist for 2020. First, we

Proceedings of the 11th Model-Based Enterprise Summit (MBE 2020)

April 30, 2020
Author(s)
Thomas D. Hedberg Jr., Mark G. Carlisle
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) hosted the eleventh installment of the Model-Based Enterprise Summit (MBE 2020) on March 31 through April 2, 2020 in Gaithersburg, Maryland. The MBE 2020 witnessed another year-over-year

Single-Photon Sources: Approaching the Ideal through Multiplexing

April 30, 2020
Author(s)
Alan L. Migdall, Evan Meyer-Scott, Christine Silberhorn
We review the rapid recent progress in single-photon sources based on multiplexing multiple probabilistic photon-creation events. Such multiplexing allows higher single-photon probabilities and lower contamination from higher-order photon states. We study

Survey of Drone Usage in Public Safety Agencies

April 30, 2020
Author(s)
Hien V. Nguyen, Terese W. Manley, Kamel S. Saidi
The Public Safety Communications Research (PSCR) Division at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) conducted a survey to explore ways in which drones, or Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), are currently being used in public safety

Using Text Visualization to aid Analysis of Machine Maintenance Logs

April 30, 2020
Author(s)
Michael P. Brundage, Senthil K. Chandrasegaran, Xiaoyu Zhang, Kwan-Liu Ma
Maintenance and error logs for machines in manufacturing organizations are typically written as informal notes by operators or technicians working on the machines. These logs are written using a combination of common language and internally-used
