Sensors & Detectors News
CO2 mission plunges
Apr 1, 2009 — We know carbon dioxide is all around, but pinpointing its location and quantity was the focus of a recent NASA mission. Unfortunately, a satellite with instrumentation onboard to monitor carbon throughout the Earth’s atmosphere crashed into the ocean shortly after launch. Developed by Hamilton Sundstrand’s Energy, Space & Defense facility in Pomona, Calif., the Orbiting Carbon Observatory was a $270 million spacecraft with an instrument that included a telescope and three high-resolution...
Cockpit Electronics Hit the Road
Apr 1, 2009 — The old adage “Keep your eyes on the road” has taken on new meaning, thanks to sophisticated in-car displays. Today’s instrument clusters tell you how fast you’re going, how much gas you have left, and whether your car is about to overheat or your...
Exploring the Deepest Reaches of Space from Europe
Apr 1, 2009 — The Herschel space telescope soon will be heading toward its new home at the L2 Lagrange point to capture images and spectrographic information about the universe’s earliest stars and galaxies. Artist’s rendition of the Herschel space telescope...
Food safety just got smarter
KINGSTON, R.I. – The hot-button issue of food contamination, it seems, is never far from the headlines, but until now, avoiding it has depended to a great extent upon the decidedly low-tech expiration date. However, thanks to technology developed by Brett Lucht and...
GREEN PHOTONICS
Apr 1, 2009 — The Optical Society of America has launched its online database of environmentally friendly optics and photonics products and services. Spanning all aspects of the industry, from fiber optics and components to sensors and laser accessories, the...
Infrared Acquisition
Apr 1, 2009 — In Massachusetts, Agiltron Inc. of Woburn, a developer and manufacturer of photonic components for communications, sensing and imaging, has purchased the assets of privately held SensArray Infrared of Burlington, a manufacturer of lead selenide and...
LMI, ControlVision Ink Agreement
Apr 1, 2009 — LMI Technologies Inc. of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, has signed a distribution agreement with ControlVision to partner and sell LMI's maestro and FireSync products. ControlVision provides vision and robotic products and support to...
Machine Vision Empowers Robots
Apr 1, 2009 — Equipping a robot with vision dramatically enhances its capabilities, enabling it to identify different parts, to handle products randomly arranged on the conveyor and to combine product inspection with manipulation. The main robot manufacturers now...
Machine vision market: Weathering the storm
WELLINGBOROUGH, UK – In the opinion of John Morse, senior market analyst for the Automation and Control division of IMS Research, the machine vision sector will be slightly more resilient to the adverse market conditions that prevail in industrial automation in general....
Military Photonics: The Art of Seeing Without Being Seen
Apr 1, 2009 — From optics to organic LEDs (OLEDS) to lasers, many sophisticated photonics technologies are being developed to help soldiers fire without drawing enemy fire, or to get a better understanding of the ever-changing situation on the...
Quantum communication, without – and with – delay
GAITHERSBURG, Md. – When it comes to computing, some of the lessons we learned in kindergarten really do apply. Algorithms have to take turns. Otherwise, final calculations could be wrong. Such data flow control is done routinely in standard computers. Now the...
Selling patents to survive economic hard times
Apr 1, 2009 — More and more businesses are struggling to stay ahead of the failing economy. Even high-tech and small starter companies have not been spared from its overwhelming impact on revenue as they are forced to sell patents they have filed rather than file...
Space Contract
Apr 1, 2009 — Paris-based Sofradir, a developer and manufacturer of infrared detectors for military and space applications, has signed a contract with Galileo Avionica of Campi Bisenzio, Italy, a supplier of space equipment. The French company will supply its...
Blind Fish Inspire New Sensor
ATLANTA, March 25, 2009 – Blind fish that have evolved a unique technique for sensing motion may inspire a new generation of sensors that perform better than current active sonar, say researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology School of Materials Science and...
Security Takes Center Stage
ORLANDO, Fla., March 25, 2009 – Although the world economy appears bleak, SPIE Defense, Security and Sensing 2009 will offer attendees access to more than 500 exhibiting companies, 2100 technical presentations and 57 professional development courses and workshops, all in one...

OneChip Photonics Nets $19M
OTTAWA, March 19, 2009 – Optical tranceiver startup OneChip Photonics of Ottawa announced that it has secured $19.5 million in venture capital funding, enabling it to market integrated FTTH tranceiver technology.
Sound Waves Generate Light
LIVERMORE, Calif., March 18, 2009 – High frequency sounds have been converted into light for the first time by reversing a process that changes electrical signals into sounds. The new tool might be used to enhance the way computer chips, LEDs and transistors are built. Researchers at...
Laser Contract Awarded
CHELMSFORD, Mass., March 16, 2009 – Schafer Corp. of Chelmsford, Mass., was awarded a $9.8-million contract from the US Navy for research and development into directed energy and electric weapon systems that could be used to detect and destroy weapons of mass destruction and the...
Polarizers Spy Perilous Chems
CHICAGO, March 13, 2009 – Remote chemical detection is typically done using a technique called laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS). This method enables chemists to analyze the composition of a suspected bomb without actually touching it. The LIBS technique is...
Provost Picked for Power Post
