Naturally Occurring Vibrations in Artificial Atoms Could Be Used to Build Quantum Sensors
The discrete nature of photons that are emitted from individual atoms ensures low fluctuations in brightness, as only one photon is emitted at a time. Scientists believe this property could be useful in developing future quantum technologies where low fluctuations will be important.

Canon U.S.A. Inc., Industrial Products Div.
Canon RA-532H, Surface Reflectance Analyzer (goniophotometer), is a compact, portable device capable of measuring 4 surface appearance conditions in a single pass: Gloss, Haze, Image Clarity (IC), and BRDF (Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function). Additionally, Canon has released its own new parameter, “Scattering” parameter, overcoming the shortage of both IC and DOI (Distinctiveness of Image) when evaluating matte and textured surfaces as well as orange peel surface.

Deposition Sciences Inc. (DSI) - Flexible Sputtered Coatings Flexible Sputtered Coatings

Deposition Sciences Inc. (DSI)
Roll-to-roll thin film coating processes present a number of challenges when coating flexible surfaces, one of the challenges is stress. Balancing the stress between the two sides of the substrate and stress build up from many layers. This stress concern limits the thickness and complexity of the coatings achievable. To address this challenge, DSI utilizes their MicroDyn® batch coating technology. Using their MicroDyn® magnetron sputtering batch process, DSI can create complex coatings...

AutoSens Brussels 2019
AutoSens Brussels 2019
September 16-19, 2019 - AutoWorld - Brussels Belgium
AutoWorld, a private museum in Brussels, will make a spectacular venue for anyone with a passion for cars and once again, the perfect backdrop for AutoSens Brussels and the continuation of technical discussions concerning the future of vehicle perception technology. The AutoSens Brussels agenda will get right to the heart of the challenges facing vision system engineers of today and tomorrow. Content will be geared to provide insight, generate discussion, and propose solutions for shared challenges in advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and semi-autonomous vehicle technologies. Agenda topics include: AI and Deep Learning for Driverless Vehicles; How to Integrate Mapping and Geolocation Technologies into Vehicle Perception; How to Show That Autonomous Vehicles Are Safe; and more.

Accelerating the Commercialization of New Optics, Photonics, and Imaging Technologies
Accelerating the Commercialization of New Optics, Photonics, and Imaging Technologies
Thu, Sep 5, 2019 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Startups often can't find the funding or the right resources to bring emerging technologies to market. This webinar will take an in-depth look at how the Luminate Accelerator is addressing these challenges to help speed the commercialization of optics-, photonics-, and imaging-enabled applications. If you are an OPI startup, from early stage to Series A funding, or a scientist or engineer who has a technology that's moving from lab to market, this webinar could point to the ultimate resource. Presented by Luminate.
