A vehicular frameless interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head and a mounting portion. The mirror head includes a mirror reflective element and a mirror casing. The mirror reflective element includes a glass substrate having a planar front side and a planar rear side. No portion of the mirror casing overlaps the planar front side of the glass substrate of the mirror reflective element. A camera is disposed within the mirror casing. With the mounting portion of the mirror assembly mounted at an in-cabin side of a windshield of a vehicle, the camera views a driver of the vehicle, and when the mirror head is moved by the driver of the vehicle to adjust the rearward view provided by the mirror reflective element to the driver, the camera moves in tandem with movement of the mirror head. The camera is part of a driver monitoring system of the vehicle.

A processing system for processing spectacle lenses and a method for processing spectacle lenses are proposed. The processing system has several processing stations, in particular a milling station, a turning station, a polishing station, a cleaning station and/or a signing station. Furthermore, the processing system has a transport system for transporting the spectacle lenses and/or transport containers for the spectacle lenses. Preferably, the processing system also has a common base frame and/or a common casing for the processing stations. In the processing system and/or with the method, several spectacle lenses can be processed simultaneously in different processing stations.

A polishing device for optical elements includes: a tool shank (1), and a polishing disc base; wherein the tool shank (1) is connected to the polishing disc base and is mounted on a tool shaft of a numerical-controlled processing device; wherein a polishing film (3) is stuck on the polishing disc base; the polishing disc base is a profiling polishing disc base (7), a cylinder polishing disc base (2), a profiling polishing disc base (12) or a spherical polishing disc base (8); wherein the tool shank (1) is independent and universal, thereby reducing the processing cost of the polishing device. A polishing method for optical elements is based on the shapes mentioned above of the polishing disc base, including steps of: fixing a polishing disc connecting rod (11); sticking a polishing film (3); trimming the polishing film (3); and polishing an unprocessed work piece (6).

A tool drive unit for a turning device for machining workpieces has a tool holder driven in a displaceable manner along an infeed direction by a first linear motor and driven in a pendular/displaceable manner in a direction transverse to the infeed direction by a second linear motor. Both linear motors have a moving coil/piezo element. The turning device has a main infeed drive, which produces a primary infeed movement of a turning tool in an infeed direction, and has a main transverse drive which produces a primary transverse movement in a transverse direction transversely to the infeed direction. The turning device has a secondary transverse drive whose movements are oriented in the same direction as the main transverse drive, wherein the turning tool and the axis of rotation can be moved towards one another and away from one another by the superimposition of primary and secondary transverse movements.

Disclosed is a production system for spectacle lenses made from spectacle lens blanks, having a left-hand outer transport track, multiple left-hand processing devices which are arranged on the left-hand side next to the left-hand outer transport track, a right-hand outer transport track, and a central transport track which is arranged between the left-hand outer transport track and the right-hand outer transport track. The transport direction of the left-hand outer transport track and the transport direction of the right-hand outer transport track are identical, and the transport direction of the central transport track is opposite to the transport directions of the left-hand outer transport track and the right-hand outer transport track or can be reversed. The multiple right-hand processing devices are arranged on the right-hand side next to the right-hand outer transport track. A processing device pair made of left-hand and right-hand processing devices is paired with a transfer device.

An intelligent continuous polishing machine and an intelligent continuous polishing process therefor are provided. The intelligent continuous polishing machine includes a base platen, a rotary platen, a multi-beam bridge mechanism, two workpiece holding mechanisms, a lap measuring mechanism, a lap cutting mechanism, a small-conditioner holding mechanism, a large-conditioner holding mechanism, and a control computer. The intelligent continuous polishing process includes a normal polishing procedure, a lap surface shape measuring procedure, and three procedures for correcting the lap surface shape error: a lap cutting procedure, a sub-aperture correcting procedure, and a full-aperture correcting procedure. All of these procedures are controlled by the control computer through CNC programs.

Production techniques of a reflective optical element for the extreme ultraviolet wavelength range having a multilayer system reflective coating arranged on a substrate. The multilayer system has mutually alternating layers of at least two different materials with different real parts of their refractive indexes at a wavelength in the extreme ultraviolet wavelength range. A layer of one of the at least two materials forms a stack with the layer or layers arranged between the former and the closest layer of the same material with increasing distance from the substrate. At least one layer of the multilayer system is polished during or after deposition thereof, such roughness of the reflective optical element rises significantly less over all layers than in a corresponding reflective optical element with a reflective coating in the form of a multilayer system composed of unpolished layers. The multilayer system may have more than 50 layer stacks.
