IR Sensor Calibration: When Extreme Uniformity Is Not Boring
Extended area blackbodies are now commonly used as reference sources for IR cameras, simultaneously calibrated. The uniformity of the reference blackbody is therefore essential. A newly developed specific bench measures IR source uniformity with a high accuracy.
Advanced Inspection Technology: Evolving Clean Energy
The development of clean energy is moving forward globally at an increasing pace. Making clean energy more efficient is critical to its adoption — and this is where large-volume precision...
Life in the Ultrafast Lane with Fiber Lasers
For lasers, shorter pulses mean more precision and new applications. That’s been true for decades. What’s changed in the last few years is that prices for lasers with pulse widths a...
EDITORIAL
Solar Takes Flight
Nelson Mandela once said, “It always seems impossible until it’s done.” These words ring true for Solar Impulse, a program “born in Switzerland” that aims to demonstrate the power of clean technologies — sometimes in dramatic fashion. The program’s Solar Impulse 2 (Si2) aircraft runs exclusively on solar power, thanks to 17,000+ solar cells built into the...
