While climbing the steps of the Met, costume designer Paul Tazewell removed Monáe’s overcoat to reveal another look. The ...

Scientists have demonstrated a sort of holographic strip that splits a single laser beam into five bespoke beams that create an optical knot. The work shows that optical knots could be used as a ...

At its core, most AI systems today use neural networks. These networks are composed of nodes (akin to neurons) connected by ...

Credit: Zeiss To create transparent glass like an airplane window, Zeiss relies on a combination of micro-optical structures and holographic optical components, depending on the need. This may ...

The catch is, that the second you try to interact with the hologram, you might lose a finger ... shape after being stretched), but also for its optical properties. "Elastic bands" are what they ...

Currently, optical communication systems are employed for the internet ... Beyond medical research, diagnostics, and treatment, it could also be applied in imaging, holography, spectroscopy, ...

Light can tie knots—literally. Engineers at Duke University have managed to manipulate laser beams to form intricate 3D patterns called optical knots, using custom-designed optics. These twisted beams ...

Now, engineers at Duke University have demonstrated a sort of holographic strip that splits a single laser beam into five bespoke beams that create an optical knot. Published in a series of papers ...

Currently, optical communication systems are employed ... it could also be applied in imaging, holography, spectroscopy, microscopy, and material and component characterisation at entirely differe ...

What if a headset could make surgery safer, faster, and less physically taxing? Surgeons are embracing DigiLoupes, a powerful new tool combining magnification, AR overlays, and ergonomic design.
