Abstract

See full text

A method of ensuring proper alignment between one optical device bearing unit and another optical device bearing unit involves creating a set of precisely placed and sized features for the one optical device bearing unit, creating a set of precisely placed and sized features for the other optical device bearing unit, the features being of a complementary pattern to enable the optical device bearing units to mate such that they are properly aligned with each other. An optical device unit is also described. The unit has multiple optical components, and a set of features sized and positioned to mate with complementary features of a different optical device unit so that when the units are brought together, the set of features and complementary features will ensure that the units are properly aligned with respect to each other.
