From night vision cameras to powerful telescopes, the range of applications involving infrared technology is vast. In the previous article, we covered the basics of infrared technology and the types of ...

An object that has a temperature greater than absolute zero emits some type of radiation. More often than not, objects surrounding us emit radiation in the form of heat that is not visible to the naked ...

In modern medicine, the ultrasound is a go-to method for viewing the body’s internal structures, given its non-invasive nature. Ultrasound produces images in real time by relaying high frequency soundwaves ...

Precision agriculture is the practice of micromanaging crops to maximize yield, with the help of sensors, mapping techniques and laboratory studies like spectroscopy. This type of “smart” farming is ...

In healthcare terminology, diagnostics refers to classifying an illness or condition based on studying the symptoms. The process of diagnostics has been forever changed with technology. Quality medical ...

In order to understand the contribution of matter, radiation, and dark energy in the universe, cosmologists have developed a set of cosmological parameters: matter (Ωm), radiation (ΩR), dark energy (ΩΛ). ...

The manufacturing industry has come a long way from Ford’s car plants that spurred innovation in the U.S. The assembly line was a revolutionary tactic for efficiency, but modern manufacturing is much more ...

Previously, we discussed a technique for producing high resolution maps of neural activity in the brain called Optical Recording of Intrinsic Signal, or ORIS.  Conventional methods for performing ORIS ...

Previously, we discussed how visible light in combination with implantable optical sensors was used to map epileptic neural activity and localize focal seizures on the surface of the brain.  Scientists at ...

Researchers at Tsinghua University look to optimize the performance of passively Q-switched lasers by confronting effects of thermal distortion. Their solution, a customized deformable mirror, proves to be ...
