The photonic based technology boom of the late 1990s was driven by the need to replace expensive, lag-prone and limited satellite telecom links. These links were based on high frequency radio waves ...

A University of Texas at Arlington electrical engineering professor is leading a project that will explore an optical laser beam steering device for 3D sensing in autonomous driving cars. To make the ...

New LiDAR technology invented by University of Washington researchers integrates onto a computer chip and uses sound waves running over its surface to steer a laser beam, much like a searchlight, so ...

Doctors insert an endoscope with an emergent laser beam at its head end into the gastrointestinal (GI) tract to inspect and even perform microsurgery such as treating and excising lesions. They ...

A professor at the University of Texas at Arlington Electrical Engineering department is leading a project to explore an optical laser beam steering device for 3D sensing in autonomous driving cars.

New beam-steering chip smaller than a grain of salt could cut hardware demands in quantum computing and high-performance data centers.

(Nanowerk News) PI is extending its offering of fast steering mirrors. The new V-931 two-axis fast steering mirror platform (FSM) is based on a frictionless, precision flexure guiding mechanism, with ...

Flat optics based on patterned liquid crystals (LCs) has recently received extensive research interest. Comparing with dielectric metasurfaces which are usually fabricated by sophisticated lithography ...

Researchers have developed a new chip-based beam steering technology that provides a promising route to small, cost-effective and high-performance lidar systems. Lidar, which uses laser pulses to ...
