Abstract
A manufacturing process for realizing increased precision in forming elements using computational masks. Some embodiments include a thermal source that may be computationally patterned, and a subsystem coupled to the course, the subsystem comprising an element that may be computationally patterned.
Claims4
A manufacturing method comprising acts of:
- coupling a heat source to a subsystem, wherein the subsystem comprises a mask;
- coupling said subsystem to a target optic to be manufactured;
- transferring a mask pattern from the mask to the target optic;
- pressing the target optic into a mold;
- and
- generating a magnetic field with the heat source, and wherein the mask is an addressable magneto-caloric mask,
- wherein the mask is coupled to the heat source and the mask pattern is transferred to the target optic by non-contact radiation.
