Observing a colony, swarm or similar grouping of creatures like ants or zebrafish over longer periods of time can be tricky. Simply recording their behavior with a camera misses a …read more Continue reading Creating a 3D Visualization of Freely Moving Organisms Using Camera Array and Software Algorithm
Scientists at Duke University have developed an incredibly powerful new camera that combines dozens of lenses to capture images and video at resolutions of thousands of megapixels, in three dimensions.Continue ReadingCategory: ScienceTags: Camera, Came… Continue reading Gigapixel microscope captures 3D images and video in stunning detail
Just as the gold standard for multimeters and other instrumentation likely comes in a yellow package of some sort, there is a similar household name for thermal imaging. But, if …read more Continue reading Pocket-Sized Thermal Imager
In order to see how well a corn plant is performing photosynthesis, you need to check the angle of its leaves relative to its stem. And while scientists ordinarily have to do so manually with a protractor, a new robotic system can now do the job much m… Continue reading Robotic system checks on corn plants by measuring leaf angles
“Look with your eyes, not your hands” is something many of us have heard while growing up, but that doesn’t apply to the touch-sensitive microscope [Steve Mould] got to play …read more Continue reading Behold a Microscope That Sees By Squashing Things Into It
Scientists at Duke University have created a real-time video that captures the frantic movements of a single virus as it tries to infect a cell. The video shows a part of the process that’s normally hard to see.Continue ReadingCategory: Biology, Scienc… Continue reading 3D microscope video tracks virus zipping around in real time
A team of engineers has developed a new type of camera that can detect radiation in terahertz (THz) wavelengths. This new imaging system can see through certain materials in high detail, which could make it useful for security scanners and other sensor… Continue reading New camera system taps into terahertz wavelengths for better imaging
Engineers at MIT have designed a tiny sticker that can deliver continuous ultrasound images of internal organs for up to 48 hours. The innovation is a step towards a future where stickers could wirelessly track muscle health during workouts or fetal de… Continue reading Tiny ultrasound stickers a breakthrough in continuous real-time imaging
X-ray vision has long been a staple power for superheroes, but soon mere mortals could see hidden objects with a little help from AI. Researchers at the University of Glasgow have demonstrated a “ghost imaging” system that reads the brainwaves of a per… Continue reading “Ghost imaging” combines human vision with AI to see around corners
German engineer Gaurav Singh has designed and built an industrial USB box camera in a custom 3D-printed case that not only accepts interchangeable lenses, but the image sensor can also be swapped out as needed.Continue ReadingCategory: Photography, Tec… Continue reading DIY industrial camera sports interchangeable image sensor board
