Optics, Sensors & Detectors News
Israeli Conference Marks Industry's Anniversary
Apr 1, 1997 — JERUSALEM -- A glimpse into the future by the laser's discoverer and a retrospective on the development of holography highlighted the 10th Meeting on Optical Engineering held last month at Jerusalem's International Convention Center. Keynote speakers at the meeting, which marked the 16th anniversary of Israel's optics industry, were Arthur L. Schawlow of Stanford University and Emmet N. Leith of the University of Michigan. Schawlow's look at the future focused on lasers' increasing use in...
Measurement System Ensures that Black Is Black on Displays
Apr 1, 1997 — Conventional techniques of assessing contrast in displays fall short and often vary depending on reflections that caused "veiling glare" in the measurement device's optical system. Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology...
Optical Sensor Keeps Tabs on Rocket Fuel
Apr 1, 1997 — MARLY-LE ROI, France -- Bigger is not always better -- especially when you are building rockets. A new optic sensor under development in France could provide flight engineers with the first pressure readings from inside the liquid gas fuel tanks...
UK Photonics Exhibition Continues to Grow
Apr 1, 1997 — BIRMINGHAM, UK -- The fourth Image Processing & Optic Technology exhibition in February introduced more than 2000 people to the latest photonics technology from more than 100 companies. The general attitude of exhibitors and attendees at the...
Applications The Key to Imager Choice
Mar 1, 1997 — Unless you know the questions to ask, selecting the right imaging technology for your applications can seem more of a coin toss than an educated choice -- an outright nightmare for those uninitiated in the intracacies of solid-state imaging...
Artificial Nose Knows Chemical Odors
Mar 1, 1997 — The vertebrate olfactory system is well-known for its extraordinary sensitivity and broad selectivity. Tufts University researchers have incorporated this array format into the design of a broadband optical vapor sensor.
Fiber Biosensors Help Decode Genes
Mar 1, 1997 — Deciphering the human genome and exploring genetic variation are fueling a biomedical revolution. Diagnosis of inherited disorders and disease at the genetic level relies on the identification and detection of the responsible gene sequences. Optical...
French Navy Looks at Optical Sensors to Avoid Electromagnetic Pulses
Mar 1, 1997 — Photonetics SA and the Direction des Constructions Navales are making final tests on a wide range of optical sensors and systems to prove that optical networks are the way to go. Using silicon wafers, glass plates and fiber optics, the French Navy...
Laser Sensors Help Reduce Waste at Wood Fiberboard Plant
Mar 1, 1997 — Eliminating waste is a prime concern for any manufacturing plant, not only from the financial standpoint, but also from the environmental one. At a Swanboard AB wood fiberboard manufacturing plant in Larvik, Norway, the problem was how to...
Micro- and Nanosatellites Could Populate New Earth-Orbit Constellations
Mar 1, 1997 — A team of researchers from The Aerospace Corp., led by I.L. Helvajian, hopes developments in laser machining will allow space agencies and communications companies to produce satellites with diameters under 15 cm, the same way hardware manufacturers...
NASA Detector Could Help Prevent Gas Explosions
Mar 1, 1997 — Researchers at NASA Langley Research Center have developed an optical flameout detection system for monitoring the combustor in the research center's propulsion test air tunnel. The fast-responding (less than 100 ms) detection process monitors light...
On-Line Inspection System Produces 99% Satisfaction
Mar 1, 1997 — The thought of inspecting a million cans of food a day -- almost 700 cans per minute -- is daunting even with the advantages of today's high-speed automation. And when you add to the job a goal of 99 percent overall product quality and production...
Optical Fibers Make Sense of Chemicals
Mar 1, 1997 — Optical fibers have revolutionized a variety of fields: They carry images through endoscopes, voices through phone lines, data and video through cable networks, and, more recently, physical and chemical information through sensors. The fiber's...
Positioning Device Helps Man Understand Earth's Past
Mar 1, 1997 — A network of cliff dwellings cut by prehistoric Amerindians and then abandoned without so much as a how-do-you-do confounded archaeologists at the turn of the century. But one man had an idea: Maybe climatic change had something to do with the...
Go West, Young Job-Seekers
Feb 1, 1997 — SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- A $2 billion gravy train is winding its way from Washington, D.C., to this aptly named California town, and Lockheed Martin Missiles & Space says there's room for 3000 more wagons. When added to as many as 1500 new high-tech...
Integrated Optics: Molding Photonic Components into Solutions
Feb 1, 1997 — Instrumentation and consumer product designers are enamored of photonics technology. Products containing lasers, LEDs and detectors abound on the shelves of electronics stores, appliance centers and even the corner gas station. Photonics makes new...
Laser Detector Stymies Laser Weapons on High-Tech Battlefields
Feb 1, 1997 — Canadian-based The Alwend Group says its government's high angular resolution laser irradiance detector (HARLID) offers modern-day military the best defense against being targeted by laser-directed ordnance. The group is marketing the 1-Band HARLID...
Laser Sensor Monitors Distant Crosswinds
Feb 1, 1997 — ATLANTA -- A laser-based sensor can measure crosswind speeds for applications such as aviation safety and meteorology, Georgia Institute of Technology researchers report.The single-ended, long-path non-Doppler laser wind sensor registers faint wind...
Lidar Protects Against Biological Warfare Agents
Feb 1, 1997 — The recent controversy over the possibility that biological warfare agents may have caused the dire illnesses plaguing the men and women who fought in Operation Desert Storm has surely captured everyone's interest. Detecting and tracking these...
New Fiber Optic Source Speeds Component Testing
Feb 1, 1997 — Lightwave telecommunication systems are meeting today's spiraling demand for increased bandwidth by adding multiple wavelength channels to each fiber. Wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) systems deliver 10- to 40-Gb performance on a single fiber,...
Photonics Makes Refinery a Good Neighbor
Feb 1, 1997 — RODEO, Calif. -- As part of a "good neighbor" agreement, Unocal Corp. plans to incorporate seven infrared, ultraviolet and laser sensors into what it calls the world's most comprehensive refinery air-monitoring system. The agreement ends two years...
Thin-Film Detector Shows High Response, Sensitivity for Radiation Measurement
Feb 1, 1997 — Using off-the-shelf production facilities and standard production methods, researchers working for the Canadian Defense Research Establishment have built a new radiation detector for use in the medical, nuclear and space fields, or wherever...
Detector & Camera Applications
Jan 1, 1997 — World travelers know that "getting there" is not always glamorous. They have stories of missed flights, jet-lagged meetings and worse. But now they can feel a little safer because of a device about the size of a pager. A relatively new cause of...
