51. Crystal IS Expands Optan Product Line For Instrumentation With Higher Light Output Deep UV LEDs 3/7/2016

    Crystal IS augmented the Optan SMD (surface mount device) product line for instrumentation with the addition of higher light output and wavelength specific bins (SKUs). This newest offering resulted from increased demand for UVC LEDs in fluorescence spectroscopy, imaging and biofouling control.

52. Imec Presents Compact Lens-Free Digital Microscope At Photonics West 2/11/2016

    At SPIE Photonics West 2016, imec will demonstrate a lens-free microscope for large field-of-view live imaging at micrometer resolution. Imec’s on-chip lens-free microscope can be integrated into life sciences and biotech tools, targeting multiple applications such as label-free cell monitoring, automated cell culturing, or automated high-throughput microscopy.

53. New Imaging Technique Could Make Brain Tumor Removal Safer, More Effective 6/17/2015

    Johns Hopkins researchers report they have developed an imaging technology that could provide surgeons with a color-coded map of a patient’s brain showing which areas are and are not cancer. The researchers hope to begin clinical trials in patients this summer.

54. Tiny "Nanoflares" Might Heat The Sun's Corona 10/16/2014

    Today, a team led by Paola Testa of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA) is presenting new clues to the mystery of coronal heating using observations from the recently launched Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS). The team finds that miniature solar flares called "nanoflares" - and the speedy electrons they produce - might partly be the source of that heat, at least in some of the hottest parts of the Sun's corona.

55. IDS Extends Ensenso Stereo 3D Machine Vision Camera Family With 24 New Models 4/8/2013

    IDS Imaging Development Systems, a global leader in medical and machine vision, announced recently that it is extending its Ensenso N10 compact stereo 3D camera portfolio with 24 new versions featuring focal lengths from 3.6mm to 16mm to cover more distances and sizes.

56. New Camera System Creates High-Resolution 3-D Images From Up To A Kilometer Away 4/4/2013

    A standard camera takes flat, 2-D pictures. To get 3-D information, such as the distance to a far-away object, scientists can bounce a laser beam off the object and measure how long it takes the light to travel back to a detector.

57. Point Grey Expands World's Smallest GigE POE Camera Family, Two New Blackfly GigE CCD Models Starting At $345 4/4/2013

    Point Grey, a world-leading designer and manufacturer of innovative, high-performance digital cameras, recently announced the addition of two new Blackfly models to the value-packed, GigE POE camera family – the smallest POE camera line in the world.

58. Teledyne DALSA Expands Genie TS Camera Line 3/28/2013

    Teledyne DALSA, a Teledyne Technologies company and a global leader in machine vision technology, has expanded its Genie TS camera series with the addition of new 2M and 4M monochrome models that reach speeds up to 76 fps in HD format. These new models are suitable for a wide range of inspection applications.

59. Better Than X-Rays: A More Powerful Terahertz Imaging System 3/27/2013

    Low-energy terahertz radiation could potentially enable doctors to see deep into tissues without the damaging effects of X-rays, or allow security guards to identify chemicals in a package without opening it. But it's been difficult for engineers to make powerful enough systems to accomplish these promising applications.

60. New Software For Research & Scientific Thermal Imagers 3/25/2013

    FLIR Systems has introduced a new and considerably enhanced version of its FLIR ResearchIR thermal measurement, recording, and analysis software.
