Over the past decades, our institution has played a crucial role in the development of optics and photonics in Canada, and the IRC in Optical Design is perfectly in line with our pioneering contribution to that field. During the last ten years, the Chair helped to develop new strength in an area that has recently experienced extraordinary development. Propelled by these successes, the IRC in Optical Design became a fundamental part of the institution's research in optics and photonics. The new term will provide new opportunities to further develop the field by providing innovation and training in optical engineering. The Chair will continue to contribute to the development of tomorrow's optical design.The science thrust of this term of the IRC is still focussed on an ambitious research program to address modern questions in optical design and optical engineering. The original research goals of the research program are twofold: to develop innovative concepts and techniques for imaging systems for extreme environments, and to develop innovative non-imaging solutions for LED-based illumination and wavefront management. This requires innovative research of novel optical design techniques, new imaging concepts, new testing set-ups and assembly approaches. The Industrial Research Chair in Optical Design plays a crucial role in establishing a world-class optical engineering training facility at Laval University. The most direct benefit from this Chair is the training of highly qualified personnel in the field of classical optical engineering, imaging and illumination lens design. Such training is only available in a few universities in North America. Additionally, partnerships with industry, public and private laboratories, and university-based centres have remained an essential component ofthe chair. Industry participation, involvement and commitment provide a very successful environment for a productive and innovative optical engineering laboratory.

在过去的几十年里，我们的机构在加拿大光学和光子学的发展中发挥了至关重要的作用，光学设计领域的 IRC 与我们对该领域的开创性贡献完全一致。在过去十年中，主席帮助该领域发展了新的力量，该领域最近经历了非凡的发展。在这些成功的推动下，光学设计 IRC 成为该机构光学和光子学研究的基本组成部分。新学期将通过提供光学工程方面的创新和培训来进一步发展该领域。主席将继续为未来光学设计的发展做出贡献。本届 IRC 的科学主旨仍然集中在一项雄心勃勃的研究计划上，以解决光学设计和光学工程中的现代问题。该研究计划的最初研究目标有两个：开发极端环境成像系统的创新概念和技术，以及开发基于 LED 的照明和波前管理的创新非成像解决方案。这需要对新颖的光学设计技术、新的成像概念、新的测试设置和组装方法进行创新研究。光学设计工业研究主席在拉瓦尔大学建立世界一流的光学工程培训设施方面发挥着至关重要的作用。该讲座最直接的好处是培养经典光学工程、成像和照明镜头设计领域的高素质人才。此类培训仅在北美的少数大学提供。此外，与工业界、公共和私人实验室以及大学中心的合作仍然是该主席的重要组成部分。行业的参与、介入和承诺为高效和创新的光学工程实验室提供了一个非常成功的环境。
