This grant provides funding to produce a video record of the conference "Progress in Precision" that will take place in Raleigh, North Carolina, on April 17-18, 2002. This video record will be in two phases: first, a verbatim video for each session will be created and made available as streaming video for viewing over the web; second, a summary of the conference (60-90 minute) will be produced and made available in the form of a DVD. This conference will emphasize the technical progress that resulted from the growth of precision engineering as a technical field over the past 20 years. Line widths for VLSI circuits have gone from 5 micron to 0.1 micron; magnetic data storage has increased by a factor of 1000 and now data can be stored at 10 Gb/in2; biological labs-on-a-chip have been produced; new metrology systems have been developed including white light interferometers and scanning probe microscopes; diamond turning is in common use for lens fabrication and snap-together assembles for alignment; and the word "nanotechnology" has entered the lexicon. All of these systems have been at the focus of precision engineering research and development. The goal of the conference is to describe the wide range of technical fields intrinsic to precision engineering, to define the impact of the multi-disciplinary viewpoint that is at the heart of the field and to predict the future challenges. It will serve to remind the practitioners of the significant improvements in process and measurement that have taken place over the past 20 years and to introduce a new group of faculty, graduate students and undergraduate students to the importance of precision engineering. By creating the video record of the conference and distilling the 2 day meeting into a 90 minute DVD, a permanent record of the conference will be available that can be widely distributed to emphasize the contributions of this important field.

这笔赠款将用于制作将于2002年4月17-18日在北卡罗来纳州罗利举行的“精密进展”会议的录像。这一视频记录将分两个阶段进行：第一，将制作每届会议的逐字视频，并以连续视频的形式在网上观看；第二，将制作会议纪要(60-90分钟)，并以DVD形式提供。本次会议将重点介绍近20年来精密工程作为一个技术领域的发展所带来的技术进步。超大规模集成电路电路的线宽已经从5微米增加到0.1微米；磁数据存储增加了1000倍，现在可以10 GB/英寸的速度存储数据；芯片上的生物实验室已经生产出来；新的计量系统已经开发出来，包括白光干涉仪和扫描探头显微镜；钻石车削通常用于透镜制造和快速组装对准；以及单词“纳米技术”已进入词典。所有这些系统都是精密工程研究和开发的重点。会议的目标是描述精密工程固有的广泛技术领域，确定处于该领域核心的多学科观点的影响，并预测未来的挑战。它将有助于提醒从业者在过去20年中在工艺和测量方面发生的重大改进，并向新的教职员工、研究生和本科生介绍精密工程的重要性。通过创建会议的视频记录，并将2天的会议提炼成90分钟的DVD，可以获得可广泛分发的会议的永久记录，以强调这一重要领域的贡献。
