Traditionally used technologies in fixed installations to trace hydrocarbon gas leaks, like IR Open Path Sensors and Catalytic/IR Point Sensors, have one restriction.
Photon etc.'s ZephIR cameras use TE4 air-cooling to enhance imaging sensors' sensitivity in the SWIR range, achieving low dark currents.
The whole idea behind autonomous cars driven by sensor and camera based computers is that they will make road traffic safer. According to the market research institute Emnid, 41% of Germans feel that driverless cars can accomplish this goal.
Chris Johnston, President at Sierra-Olympic, talks to AzoOptics about the applications of the world's first HD infrared camera and the inspiration and difficulties of its creation.
Engines are considered to be complex pieces of machinery, and thoroughly testing them means testing many different variables. How much air is the engine taking in? How’s the noise level?
Metal organic frameworks, commonly referred to as MOFs, have gathered a lot of interest in recent years and have already been implemented into various applications to date.
Researchers at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) have created a singular variety of nanotechnology sensors that can be sprayed on flat or curved surfaces, like train tracks and or airplane wings.
