Furthermore, this document specifies processes that can be needed for reconstruction of visual volumetric media, and can also include additional processes such as post‑decoding, pre-reconstruction, post‑reconstruction, and adaptation.

This document specifies requirements and gives recommendations for the periodic inspection and testing of permanently mounted tubes of: composite with seamless metallic liners; composite with non-load-sharing liners; seamless steel; in battery vehicles and multiple element gas containers (MEGCs) including frames and associated equipment (these components are also inspected); and large tubes of: composite with seamless metallic liners; composite with non-load-sharing liners; in modules including frames and associated equipment (these components are also inspected).

This document is applicable to whole body vibration as a significant hazard. It also specifies the methods for determining the vibration emission transmitted to the whole body of drivers standing or seated on freely moveable ground support equipment (GSE) when driving, for purposes of type evaluation and declaration. This document also specifies methods for verifying vibration emission. This document is applicable to self-powered GSE only. The test results do not apply to the determination of whole body vibration exposure of persons. This document is intended to be used in conjunction with the different parts of the EN 1915 series and the EN 12312 series. This document does not apply to GSE manufactured before the date of its publication.

IEC 61754-2: 2026 defines the standard interface dimensions for type BFOC/2,5 family of connectors. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1996. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) addition of Clause 2, Clause 3 and the Bibliography; b) addition of the active device receptacle interface type; c) revision of the ferrule grades to refer to the connector optical interfaces specified in the IEC 61755-3 series; d) revision of the ferrule end face geometry to refer to the connector optical interfaces specified in the IEC 61755‑3 series and IEC 63267‑3 series; e) improvement of the description of the characteristics of the resilient alignment sleeve for adaptor and rigid bore sleeve for active device receptacle; f) harmonisation of the dimensions of reference A for the rigid bore sleeve with other connector interface standards in IEC 61754 series.
