SWIR Applications and Challenges: A Primer
Sep 5, 2014 — Infrared imaging opens endless possibilities for industrial, scientific and security image-processing applications. But short-wave infrared cameras must overcome the limitations of InGaAs sensor technology to provide high-quality images. Conventional imaging sensors such as CCD or CMOS have a wider sensitivity range than the human eye, especially in the near-infrared area. They reveal more than the bare eye can see. For example, an easy way to check if an infrared remote control is working
Tech workshop focuses on PIC packaging
Sep 5, 2014 — Packaging for photonic integrated circuits continues to evolve, despite challenges. For silicon photonics, some of the potential solutions include wafer-level methods and “microbench” technologies for multichip device packaging. Since...
Bees Are No Bumblers
Sep 4, 2014 — When flowers start to bloom, you know it. The smell of honeysuckle, lilacs or gardenias wafts through the air and into our noses as we walk outside, drive down the road or, with any luck, wake up next to an open window. The perfume is intoxicating,...
Dual-Band Monitoring Keeps Trains Running in Winter
Sep 4, 2014 — Keeping critical parts of the railroad infrastructure free of snow, sleet, hail and ice – and even detecting unauthorized persons walking the rails – is essential for a safe and uninterrupted transportation service. Dual-band monitoring...

Vehicle Vision Puts the 'Auto' in 'Automobile'
Sep 4, 2014 — Vision systems are increasingly enabling self-driving cars to automatically park, maintain speed and prevent collisions. Can a world of ubiquitous self-driving cars be far off? Whether it’s a flying, automatically driven car like the...
Zeiss Reports Revenue Growth Despite Currency Effects
JENA, Germany, Sept. 4, 2014 — Carl Zeiss Meditec AG recently reported revenue of €673.7 million (about $878.8 million) in the first nine months of its fiscal year, an increase of 3.8 percent from the same period in the previous year when adjusted for exchange rates. The...
‘Cannon’ Launches Single Photons
COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Sept. 2, 2014 — A new photonic "cannon" could provide the necessary light control for quantum encryption and computing.
Fibercore Acquires Fibertronix
SOUTHAMPTON, Hampshire, England, Sept. 1, 2014 — Fibercore has acquired Fibertronix of Hudiksvall, Sweden, for an undisclosed sum.
