Beam profiling systems are an essential technology to ensure the quality and uniformity of lasers. Beam profilers measure the optical spatial intensity of an input laser beam,  providing information about ...

Introduction   Bionic limbs exist in a number of books, movies, and TV shows. Science fiction fans will remember the Steve Austin’s Bionic Arm from his role in The Six Million Dollar Man. Even ...

Optical myography is a technique that visually inspects the human forearm to determine the hand posture. Hand posture is a communication element as important as the language itself. Human hand gesture ...

Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication system enables vehicles to wirelessly exchange information about their speed, location, and traffic information. The technology behind V2V communication allows ...

The first medical application of lasers was reported by Goldman in 1962. In cardiovascular surgery, McGuff first used a Ruby laser in 1963 for the experimental ablation of atherosclerotic plaques. After a ...

Since the first demonstration of the laser in 1960, people have endeavored to make lasers more compact. Semiconductor lasers achieved this desired compactness employing so called heterostructures. This ...

Since the invention of the first operating laser in 1960, lasers have been designed in various regions of the electromagnetic spectrum and output powers. Soon after the advent of semiconductor fabrication ...

Silicon photonics is the technology of using optical processing components made of silicon itself, rather than other materials. Electronic interconnects with copper contribute to high power consumption and ...

3D body scanning lends itself to a wide variety of fields. Healthcare professionals can use body scans to make 3D printed prosthetics, animation studios can use body scans for highly-accurate portraits, ...

Small mechanical systems and optics are interlinked in many ways. People use lasers to create small electronic systems like those found in semiconductors. Increasingly, light plays an important role in ...
