Every year the Optica Foundation and the previous year's Optics Ambassadors select ten new exceptional early-career members to serve as that year's class of Optics Ambassadors. This year's class includes Wyant College alumnus, Ben Cromey, now an optical engineer for Ball Aerospace. Congratulations, Ben on this amazing honor and opportunity!

On July 16th, 2022 Prof. Florian Willomitzer presented one of his research projects at TEDxNuremberg. The talk is now published on the TEDx Talks Youtube channel. In the talk, Florian shared more insights on his holographic cameras, which can see around corners and through scattering media, and “make the unseen visible.” The technique has multiple potential applications, e.g., in medical imaging, autonomous driving, industrial inspection, or virtual reality.

Congratulations are in order for Professor Rongguang Liang who was named one of the Senior Members for the National Academy of Inventors (NAI) in 2023. Read more from the Tech Launch Arizona press release. Congratulations, Ron!
