Biomedical engineers at Duke University have discovered a way to detect signs of cancer on a cell-by-cell basis using a technique that involves two lasers and a camera. The technique, using biomedical lasers and cameras, can assess an individual cell’s stiffness using patterns that appear within its internal structure. Several [...]
With todays’ advancements in technology, emergency personnel and government agencies are now able to capture images of structural damage using digital aerial cameras. These digital aerial images or photogrammetry, are highly valuable in situations of a natural disaster, such as an earthquake or flood. […]
The use of thermal scanning, or thermography has increased dramatically with the commercial and industrial applications of the past fifty years. Firefighters, maintenance technicians, building construction technicians, archeologists all use thermal scanning, helping them to be more efficient in their fields. Recently in Egypt, according to the Antiquities Ministry, [...]
Obtaining satisfactory visibility with underwater optical imaging has been historically difficult due to the absorptive and scattering properties of seawater. However, recent advancements in hardware, software, and algorithmic methods have led to noticeable improvement in system operational range. […]
Technologies continue to improve and are at the point today where a new imaging lens system has been developed that can “gather significantly more color information than the human eye and conventional cameras.” The benefit of this technology is that this could have the potential to enable assisted vehicle driving [...]
