[adam] is a caver, meaning that he likes to explore caves and map their inner structure. This is still commonly done using traditional tools, such as notebooks (the paper ones), tape measure, ...

Lidar sensors add depth scanning for better photos and AR, but in future we could see mixed-reality headsets and more. I started with CNET reviewing laptops in 2009. Now I explore wearable tech, VR/AR ...

A new system represents the first time that the capabilities of conventional beam-scanning lidar systems have been combined with those of a newer 3D approach known as flash lidar. The nonmechanical 3D ...

Intelligent optical sensing systems that integrate wavefront control with adaptive responses are emerging as key enablers for next-generation LiDAR technologies. Scientist in China developed a ...

The LiDAR scanner in the latest iPad makes a 3D map of its area, as demonstrated by Esper from Lux Optics. Photo: Sebastiaan De With/Lux Optics The 3D scanner built into the 2020 iPad Pro is intended ...

"The future of optical technology lies in our ability to harness the power of light with unparalleled precision and efficiency," says Arshey Patadia, a leading figure in photonics whose work is ...

Sigma Space is providing single-photon LiDAR (SPL)-generated point clouds from a test area in the US state of Connecticut to two evaluating companies contracted by the United States Geological Survey ...
