This is a subject close to my own heart - I was slightly involved in an earlier iteration of very similar research. The aim is to find out how rich or poor people are in remote or otherwise ...

Human vision relies on light. After reflecting off surfaces, light enters into the eyes and travels through the cornea and pupil to produce an image on the retina. The eye is sensitive to a broad ...

Researchers are seeing the light, but in an altogether different way. And how they are doing it just might be the semiconductor industry's ticket for extending its use of optical microscopes to ...

The fact that so many people are stuck at home makes for strange opportunities. Italy’s confined populace has taken to singing from the balconies — and now researchers are asking them to use those ...

Laser Doppler vibrometers (LDVs) measure vibrations in ways that other sensors can't. From large aircraft structures to microscopic MEMS sensors, and Laser Doppler vibrometers (LDVs) measure ...

Pasadena, CA — Ohio State University researchers have found a way to measure distances to objects three times farther away in outer space than previously possible, by extending a common measurement ...

Physicists have engineered photons that behave as if they inhabit a space far richer than the familiar three dimensions, ...

Forget hunting for a tape measure or a protractor. Use your Android phone camera and sensors to handle different types of measurements easily.
