RF Reference Transmitted Over Fiber Optics Could Reduce Reliance on Atomic Clocks
SYDNEY, Feb. 2, 2018 — Researchers from a consortium of Australian institutions have demonstrated that a stable radio-frequency (RF) reference can be reliably transmitted more than 300 kilometers over a standard fiber optic telecommunications network, and used to...
Remote System Uses Video, Algorithms to Monitor Baby’s Heart Rate and Breathing
LOGAN, Utah, Feb. 1, 2018 — A technology that estimates heart rate using a video camera and software could lead to new applications in the medical equipment and consumer markets. But first, the technology will be used to help new parents rest easier by monitoring the heart and...
Magneto-Optical Q-Switched Laser Generates Unpolarized Light
TOYOHASHI, Japan, Feb. 1, 2018 — By using a technique — called q-switching — that utilizes short but high-powered pulse outputs, a laser one-tenth of the size of an American penny produced a beam that is 10 times more powerful than previously reported with larger lasers. The...
Image Sensor Imperfection Thwarts Cybercriminals’ Best Efforts
Jan 31, 2018 — The digital cameras in smartphones are built to be identical for each model of phone. However, manufacturing imperfections create tiny variations in each camera’s image sensors. These imperfections could prevent identity theft more safely than...
