Abstract
A method and system for stress engineering of a transparent material can include an imaging system that can visualize a spatial distribution of an internal stress in a transparent material, an actuator system that can induce stress in the transparent material, the actuator system comprising one or more actuator elements, and a feedback system that can communicate with the imaging system and the actuator system, and which can guide an internal stress distribution in the transparent material toward a preferred final state.
