Sensor Company to Develop Image-Enhancement Processor for US Air Force
Dec 1, 1996 — Irvine Sensors Corp. of Costa Mesa, Calif., is developing an electronic image-enhancement processor for the US Air Force's Wright Laboratory Avionics Directorate. The processor will be part of an add-in board for the lab's 50-billion operations per second image-processing system. Researchers want to achieve a resolution of 1024 3 1024 pixels; current systems offer 128 3 128-pixel resolution. The processor will use a custom version of the company's 3-D artificial neural network real-time...
Shattered Beamlet Lens Blamed on Timing Error
Dec 1, 1996 — LIVERMORE, Calif. -- A high-power experiment on Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's Beamlet laser destroyed one of the setup's lenses and damaged another. No injuries were reported, but officials say that the September incident caused $70,000...
Three Lidars Team Up to Probe the Atmosphere
Dec 1, 1996 — CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- In a joint optical remote-sensing program, scientists from the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Atmospheric Technology Div. and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Environmental Technology...
Toshiba Develops Blue-Purple Laser for Next-Generation Digital Storage
Dec 1, 1996 — Scientists at Toshiba Corp. have generated 417-nm pulses using a GaN semiconductor laser powered at room temperature. The company's metallorganic chemical vapor deposition technique made the development possible by controlling the phase boundary of...
