Laser-Generated Bubbles Create 3D Liquid Images
A volumetric bubble display using lasers allows viewers to see 3D images without 3D glasses or headsets. Researcher Kota Kumagai of Utsunomiya University in Japan said the new work is currently a proof of concept, but one day might allow full-color updatable volumetric displays.

Silicon Nanoparticles Used for Photovoltaic Windows
Windows that can efficiently collect solar energy are one step closer to becoming a reality thanks to high-tech silicon nanoparticles. Researchers at the University of Minnesota and University of Milano-Bicocca have developed technology to embed the silicon nanoparticles into what they call efficient luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs). These LSCs are the key element of windows that can efficiently collect solar energy.

Photon Gun Could Further Development of Photonic Quantum Network
A photonic nanostructure for constructing quantum photonic circuits for quantum networks has been developed, which could impact the optics and photonics that underlie quantum information processing. Photons (unlike electrons) display weak interaction with their environment, so they do not lose a lot of energy during transmission. This makes them well suited to carrying and distributing information over long distances.

AI Helps Autonomous Vehicles Locate Themselves on Maps
Self-driving cars need onboard artificial intelligence (AI) technology able to link them to highly detailed maps that reflect every change in the status of lanes, hazards, obstacles, and speed-limits in real time. Researchers at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering are working hard to make this machine-to-machine interaction possible.

Underwater Camera, Sensor System Track Dolphin Behavior in the Wild
A study testing novel underwater camera technology may lead to possible ways to advance conservation and rehabilitation efforts on behalf of wild sea creatures. A remote cetacean-borne video camera and integrated sensor system (C-VISS) was deployed on eight free-swimming dusky dolphins off the coast of New Zealand from December 2015 to January 2016, collecting a total of 535 minutes of video footage.
