We’ve all likely seen the amazing images possible with a scanning electron microscope. An SEM can yield remarkably detailed 3D images of the tiniest structures, and they can be invaluable too… ...

[Valentin] wanted to experiment with 3D scanning some objects he had around the house, but says he didn’t want to buy a line laser for the project since they are pretty expensive. Fortunately ...

YouTube’s Doctor Volt repurposed a Blu-Ray drive, which are now easy to find on the cheap in the era of streaming content, to build a simple scanning laser microscope. A couple of custom ...

High-throughput laser micro-machining demands precise control of the laser beam position to achieve optimal efficiency, but existing methods can be both time-consuming and cost-prohibitive. In ...

Illustration of the working principle of dynamic z-scanning for auto-focusing. Dynamic beam shaping is achieved by a single TAG lens operating at 140-380kHz in a dual beam path setup (probing beam ...

Over the course of two days in early July 2016, a plane flying less than 2,000 feet above the ground scanned a 100-square-mile patch of the rainforest with more than 6.5 billion laser pulses.

The 3D laser scanning module that may make an appearance on the "iPhone 8" raises a number of questions, and a new report attempts to shed some light on the subject, including what model of iPhone ...

A non-destructive technique for health assessment of fire-damaged concrete elements using terrestrial laser scanning. Journal of Civil Structural Health Monitoring, 2016; 6 (4): 665 DOI: 10.1007 ...

We have continued development of for retinal scanning laser eyewear technology including a support for a clean device society implementation promotion project by the National Research and ...
