3D Holography Integrated Glasses Could Unlock Mixed Reality

Researchers from Princeton University and Facebook creator Meta are working towards mixing the real and virtual worlds using high-definition 3D holographic images. The team has developed a spatial light modulator capable of projecting these images while fitting on a standard pair of glasses. The small optical device could be the foundation for a virtual and augmented reality display that is fully immersive to the human eye.  Read Article

The interaction between photons and acoustic phonons within materials, first described by Leon Brillouin, has been widely investigated to characterize the mechanical and physical properties of samples. To translate this technology to biomedical applications in which mechanical properties are often critical, Giuliano Scarcelli’s lab has developed high-resolution spectrometers at high throughput and combined them with optical microscopes to yield 3D-imaging modalities that use label-free biophysical properties as contrast mechanisms for imaging. Scarcelli shares areas of application and future developments of this research. Sponsored by LightMachinery.
