The ODS has been held as part of SPIE Optics + Photonics since 2014. Formerly, the scope of ODS was optical data storage, but since 2018, it has been extended to industrial optical devices and systems. The new scope includes emerging industrial domains such as automotive, IoT, big data, healthcare, security, etc. We are pleased that the number of papers is increasing in the last three years, and that their areas are expanding from traditional optical data storage to various industrial optical devices and systems. This means that the new scope of ODS has been recognized by optics research and development community in industry. We hope that all of you will enjoy this conference and help make it more attractive in the future.
