From evening drives to navigating a house or a park in the dark, there are so many situations where it’d be handy to slip on a simple pair of night-vision lenses and the world that’s beyond human optical perception could be illuminated like never befor… Continue reading Night-vision lenses so thin and light that we can all see in the dark
Directly applying red-light therapy to a damaged spinal cord protects and regenerates nerve cells, leading to a return of motor and sensory function, according to new research. The treatment could expand the currently limited treatments available to pe… Continue reading Spinal red-light therapy protects and regenerates damaged nerve cells
Feeling limited by your smartphone’s puny light? If so, you might want to check out the phone-mountable Wuben E1. It’s currently on Kickstarter, and puts out up to 300 lumens as compared to the iPhone 15’s measly 50.Continue ReadingCategory: Mobile Tec… Continue reading Adjustable magnetic smartphone light belts out 300 lumens
NASA’s Psyche spacecraft, farther away than the Sun, has sent data through a laser over a record-breaking distance, and done so even faster than expected.Continue ReadingCategory: Space, ScienceTags: NASA, Communications, Communicate, Laser, Light, Dat… Continue reading Deep-space lasers smash data speed records over interplanetary distances
Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a non-invasive technique that uses low-intensity light from lasers or LEDs to produce a therapeutic effect. It’s been used to treat medical conditions as varied as heart disease and wounds. Transcranial PBM, using light on t… Continue reading Stressed? Study shows light shone on the head and belly helps
We all know that water evaporates when the temperature climbs, but researchers have just shown that there’s another factor at play. The breakthrough could solve long-standing atmospheric mysteries and lead to future technological advances.Continue Read… Continue reading Think you understand evaporation? Think again, says MIT
Photography is all about light, and capturing it for posterity. As any experienced photographer will tell you, getting the right lighting is key to getting a good shot. To help …read more Continue reading Build Your Own RGB Fill Light For Photography
Assisted by quantum physics and machine learning, researchers have developed a transparent window coating that lets in visible light but blocks heat-producing UV and infrared. The coating not only reduces room temperature but also the energy consumptio… Continue reading New window film drops temperature by 45 °F, slashes energy consumption

We humans like to think we’re so clever, but in many cases nature has beaten us to the punch with a better version. The newest example comes from a humble insect that’s probably in your own backyard, which makes nanoscale soccer balls that hide it from… Continue reading Common bug’s tiny, complex balls bestow UV-blocking superpowers
