Abstract
The precise polishing of optical surfaces is an important technology in the optics industry. We present a new polishing process that we call Rock and Roll polishing. This new process has the feature that it can be used to polish precise aspheric surfaces, axially and non-axially symmetric, can be scaled to polish several surfaces in parallel, and it is inexpensive.
