Customizing Broadband Light Sources Using a Photonic Chip and AI
Customizing Broadband Light Sources Using a Photonic Chip and AI
Researchers have created an optical device that uses AI to control the properties of light. Using an actively controlled photonic chip, they prepared and manipulated patterns of femtosecond (fs) optical pulses. They used machine learning techniques to tune their approach.

New Laser Architecture Taps Coherent Light to Probe and Control Matter
New Laser Architecture Taps Coherent Light to Probe and Control Matter
A new laser architecture called the Universal Light Modulator uses coherent light to engineer complex light structures for probing and controlling matter. Currently, generating such structures is primarily done using external devices such as spatial light modulators, which have average power and peak power limitations.

PCO-TECH Inc. - pco.edge 4.2 bi: Back Illuminated sCMOS pco.edge 4.2 bi: Back Illuminated sCMOS

PCO-TECH Inc.
Innovations aren’t always about having that one big new idea. Unique technology also comes from evolution, combining existing and new technology. When PCO’s tried and trusted pco.edge series pools forces with modern back illuminated (bi) 16 bit sCMOS sensor technology, we call the result: pco.edge 4.2 bi.

Wireless-to-Optical Receiver Could Speed Data Transmission Over ‘Last Mile’
Wireless-to-Optical Receiver Could Speed Data Transmission Over ‘Last Mile’
While light waves sent through optical fibers support fast data transmission, the “last mile,” from the fiber optic cable to the internet socket in your home, can be the most challenging and expensive leg of the journey. In the future a new light modulator could cover the “last mile” where data must travel efficiently and at a low cost.

2019 IS&T International Symposium on Electronic Imaging
2019 IS&T International Symposium on Electronic Imaging
January 13-17, 2019 - Hyatt Regency San Francisco Airport - Burlingame United States
For 30 years, EI has showcased the leading research of each era, from the early days of digital cameras, to the imaging science driving autonomous vehicles, to the 3D imaging essential to bioinformatics, to the virtual realities presented via stereoscopic imaging. EI 2019 will cover vital new topics that put electronic imaging at the forefront of 21st century technology development. You will learn about these new imaging applications, hear about what's next in imaging science, and interact with renowned imaging pioneers from around the world. Symposium plenaries, short courses, conference keynotes, and informal gatherings will allow you to tap into a smart, forward-thinking global community that will inspire and empower you.

Materials and Methods for Smart Glass, Smart Windows, and Building Shells
Materials and Methods for Smart Glass, Smart Windows, and Building Shells
Wed, Dec 5, 2018 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EST
This webinar will introduce a cost-efficient, high-performing smart glass system for windows, windshields, roof panes, and building envelopes. The system is based on a reflective structure that switches to transmissive when an index-matching fluid is introduced. You will learn about the technology used to develop and fabricate the smart glass system, including the use of optofluidics and 3D printing. The presenter, professor Keith Goossen, will also discuss future goals and potential applications for his smart heating, cooling and lighting system.
