A team of Concordia researchers has developed the first micromotors capable of moving through the air using only light as ...

Near-infrared (NIR) photon detection and object recognition are crucial technologies for all-weather target identification.

Way back in 2008, Canon — the stalwart Japanese camera brand — released its EOS 5D Mark II model, which heralded a new era of digital photography. It was one of the first DSLR (which stands for ...

Successful interpretation of infrared spectra isn’t about memorizing peak positions, it’s about pattern recognition! Join Brian Smith of Big Sur Scientific as he discusses the fundamentals of infrared ...

Fort Worth is rolling out a drone project that leaders say is the first of its kind in the world. A network of 27 weather sensors has been deployed to fill gaps in weather data so that drone operators ...

Flu season is fast approaching in the northern hemisphere. And a taste-based influenza test could someday have you swapping nasal swabs for chewing gum. A new molecular sensor has been designed to ...

Phases of ice that exist naturally only on frozen moons could be detected using infrared spectroscopy, according to new laboratory experiments. This story is republished from Eos. Read the original ...

You'd think a remote control technology that was first introduced in the 1980s would be completely obsolete by now. But infrared (IR) remotes are still very much kicking half a century later, despite ...

Capturing photos beyond the visible spectrum is challenging and requires special gear, but the creative payoff is worth it. Here are some of my favorite infrared shots and tips to get you started.

Cole Lindsay remembers embers from the 2024 Fossil Complex Fire blowing into a steep canyon, a place where crews feared new fire starts had the potential to form. Lindsay, the Oregon Department of ...

A wearable sensor could make tracking medication levels much easier for people living with bipolar disorder, eliminating the need for blood draws and lab analyses. The first-of-its-kind device could ...

The visible light spectrum that humans perceive spans only a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum — roughly 430 to 750 THz, corresponding to wavelengths of ~400-700 nm. Just beyond this range ...
