@@@@@Toru Yoshizawa: Brief biography and research works
University of Tokyo. After 10 years of research and educational work at Yamanashi University (1968- 1978), he moved to Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, where he was professor in the Department of Mechanical Systems Engineering for 25 years (1978-2003). After retirement from this university, he worked in industry for three years and again, in 2006, moved to Saitama Medical University (as a full-time professor) to initiate the Department of Biomedical Engineering. In April 2012 he left the medical university to restart as a consultant for industrial companies and as an advisor to associations. Currently he is serving as Director of Non-Profit Organization "3D Associates" and Professor Emeritus at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology. He is one of initiators of SPIE (International Society for Optics and Photonics, US) and served as Chapter Chair for 10 years, and is a Fellow of SPIE. His research field covers optical metrology and optomechatronics with emphasis on dimensional meassurement. He is an author or editor of many books and research papers including " Handbook of Optical Metrology: Principles and Applications" (CRC Press, Taylor & Francis, March 2009).
