The cameras are invented by imitating the human visual system to capture the scene. The camera
technologies have been substantially advanced in recent years. 108 MP resolution with 100x hybrid
zoom has become standard features for smartphone flagships. In ...
Autofocus (AF) methods are extensively used in biomicroscopy, for example to acquire timelapses, where the imaged objects tend to drift out of focus. AF algorithms determine an optimal distance by which to move the sample back into the focal plane. Current ...
Moiré effects result from the superimposition of repetitive structures. The beauty of these moirés comes from the fact that macroscopic shapes seem to appear from the superposition of layers containing microscopic patterns. In addition, the moirés are dyna ...
The appearance of objects is governed by how they reflect, transmit and absorb the light they receive. That, in turn, depends on the material's internal structure, surface structure, and viewing and illumination directions. Changes in those characteristics ...
Single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) are an emerging sensor technology capable of detecting individual incident photons, and capturing their time-of-arrival with high timing precision. While these sensors were limited to singlepixel or low-resolution dev ...
We present EKLT, a feature tracking method that leverages the complementarity of event cameras and standard cameras to track visual features with high temporal resolution. Event cameras are novel sensors that output pixel-level brightness changes, called “ ...
River inflows have a major influence on lake and reservoir water quality through their input of momentum, heat, oxygen, sediment, nutrients and contaminants. The fate of these components is controlled by the hydrodynamic processes at the interface between ...
Accurate characterization of high numerical aperture aspheric microlenses currently is a nonstandard procedure that remains an open challenge. Here, we present and discuss a characterization method based on interferometric and point spread function measure ...
The present invention concerns a laser engraving device (1) for engraving a target surface (17). The laser engraving device (1) comprises: a beam splitter (7) for dividing a processing laser beam (25) into a plurality of engraving laser beams (27); a first ...
A multi-camera hemispherical very wide field of view imaging apparatus with omnidirectional illumination capability comprises a cylindrical body (4, 4.a, 4.b), a hemispherical mechanical frame (2) arranged on one end of the cylindrical body (4, 4.a, 4.b), ...
