Atmospheric Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) is widely used in aviation and aeronautic applications. LiDAR applications are not only used as tools for scientific studies but also to improve flight ...

Researchers in the US have demonstrated how quantum entanglement could be used to detect optical signals from astronomical ...

Electro-optical detectors are used to measure or sense the radiation emitted or reflected by objects within the detector’s optical field of view (FOV). Passive systems operate without any illumination ...

Snapshots from space may someday confirm the presence of lakes and oceans on Europa–one of Jupiter’s moons–and on other planetary bodies. Imaging detectors that capture information from every ...

A novel technique for enhancing optical spring that utilizes the Kerr effect to improve the sensitivity of gravitational wave detectors (GWDs) has recently been developed. This innovative design uses ...

Super-sensitive imaging systems cover new ground. In the near future, laser-based detection systems will allow military aircraft to identify enemy ground vehicles accurately in battle zones and permit ...

The Spectra optical caries detection device by Air Techniques is a useful adjunct for detecting, assessing, and monitoring enamel demineralization and caries progression, according to the product's ...

Wireless fire detector with a built-in siren. The detector has a dust-proof smoke chamber, a dual-spectrum optical smoke sensor, two A1R thermistors and a CO chemical sensor, and versions with sealed ...
