Compact Thermal Imaging System Created with Spinning Metasurfaces

Researchers have developed a technology that uses meta-optical devices to perform thermal imaging. The approach captures richer information about imaged objects, including spectral and polarization details, which could broaden the use of thermal imaging in fields such as autonomous navigation, security, thermography, medical imaging, and remote sensing.  Read Article

Dual-Comb Ranging for Industrial Applications
Dual-Comb Ranging for Industrial Applications

Tue, Feb 13, 2024 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EST
Researchers developed a simplified variation of the dual-comb ranging (DCR) technique: two-photon dual-comb LiDAR, which allows data to be collected using time-tagging electronics. The switch from high-bandwidth digitization to time-tagging represents a significant reduction in the data burden associated with DCR. Despite the simplifications made, these demonstrations show comparable measurement precision to the conventional technique. In this webinar, Hollie Wright, Ph.D., discusses the technique and explains the many advantages it offers compared to conventional DCR. She shares results from various demonstrations including multi-target ranging and target pose sensing and shares as-yet unpublished results from demonstrations with non-cooperative targets. Finally, Wright discusses the outlook for the technique and future work plans.

From Theory to Practice: Coherent Beam Combining's Impact on Laser Technology
From Theory to Practice: Coherent Beam Combining's Impact on Laser Technology

Thu, Feb 15, 2024 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EST
This presentation shines a spotlight on the transformative laser technology known as coherent beam combining (CBC). While this technology has been known for decades, it only recently has been introduced into commercial applications, with Civan Lasers emerging as a leading player in the field. During this webinar, Eyal Shekel delves into the fundamental principles of CBC and explores its versatile configurations, which encompass filled aperture and optical phased array techniques. He provides valuable insights into the latest developments in this field for laser technology enthusiasts or engineers seeking to harness the power of CBC. Presented by Civan Lasers.
