Advanced Imaging System Superior to Human Eye

73443 A new imaging system can attain significantly more color information than the human eye and conventional cameras, potentially enabling assisted-vehicle-driving systems, better identification of counterfeit bills and more accurate medical imaging. A team at the University of Granada designed the system, which is based on transverse field detectors (TFDs) developed at the Polytechnic University… Seguir Leyendo Advanced Imaging System Superior to Human Eye

Imaging System Produces 3-D Monument Models with UAVs

The first 3-D imaging system to combine data obtained from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with image-based 3-D modeling technologies and virtual representations has produced realistic models of historical buildings from images. To date, UAVs have been used in many research fields because of their ability to move quickly over abrupt areas, to avoid large… Seguir Leyendo Imaging System Produces 3-D Monument Models with UAVs

Scientists Join Forces To Monitor Atmospheric Aerosols With Laser Radar

Ten scientific institutions from Spain and Portugal have joined forces to create the SPALINET lidar network, radars with laser technology intended to study the aerosols in the atmosphere. The aim of the team is to homogenise and enhance the quality of measurements in order to better understand the scattering of these particles in the sky… Seguir Leyendo Scientists Join Forces To Monitor Atmospheric Aerosols With Laser Radar

Thermal Signatures Determine Time of Death

Thermal Signatures Determine Time of Death During decomposition microorganisms emit different thermal signatures, which can be detected by thermographic imaging. Thermography detects infrared radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum, and when used on decomposing bodies, the thermal growth signatures of microorganisms can be detected. According to a preliminary study released by Isabel Fernández Corcobado, professor at… Seguir Leyendo Thermal Signatures Determine Time of Death

Spanish And US Scientists Develop A New Technique That Allows Certain Objects To Be Invisible To The Human Eye

* They have used a simulated layer system with the Transmission Line Matrix (TLM) Modelling method, which is able to hide, in certain frequencies, the objects placed in an electromagnetic simulator. Such studies are the germ to achieve invisibility to radars or even to the human eye. * This research work has been carried out… Seguir Leyendo Spanish And US Scientists Develop A New Technique That Allows Certain Objects To Be Invisible To The Human Eye
