The Microsoft Kinect was a boon to robotics researchers. The cheap, off-the-shelf depth sensor allowed them to quickly and cost-effectively prototype innovative systems that enable robots to map, interpret, and navigate their environments.
Panasonic Corporation today announced that it has developed a thermal sensation estimation method using the infrared array sensor Grid-EYE. Based on the results of estimations, the company has started to deliver high-precision thermal sensing solutions that recognize thermal comfort for people.
Xbox Kinects could be used in the future to assess the health of patients with conditions such as cystic fibrosis.
Analog Devices, Inc. today announced the acquisition of SNAP Sensor SA, a privately held company based in Switzerland that specializes in highly innovative vision sensing technologies. The acquisition will advance Analog Devices’ leadership position in sensing and signal processing and build upon platform-level Internet of Things (IoT) solutions such as ADI’s award-winning Blackfin Low Power Imaging Platform (BLiP).
Subsea 7 LLC., a leading global contractor in seabed-to-surface engineering, construction and services, and 3D at Depth, a global technology provider of advanced subsea LiDAR systems and solutions, have announced the completion of several metrology projects using subsea LiDAR technology in new configurations to help increase overall efficiencies in offshore oil and gas applications.
Today, Alzheimer's disease is diagnosed too late. In collaboration with a research team at the university and German Center for Neurogenerative Diseases (DZNE) in Göttingen, Researchers at Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB) have developed a blood test that may potentially facilitate detection of Alzheimer's at an early stage.
MotionDSP, a leading provider of image processing and computer vision software today announced a partnership with Ascent Vision Technologies, a manufacturer and distributor of best-in-class gimbal systems. By pairing Ascent Vision’s sensors with MotionDSP’s real-time image processing software, Ikena ISR, customers are provided with a video collection and processing solution that has the same capabilities of larger sensor systems, but at half the cost.
A ground-breaking tracking system called HYPERION based on eye-safe lasers could enable aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and even orbiting satellites to transmit vital data to ground stations more securely, quickly and efficiently.
Disney Research scientists are adapting low-cost depth-sensing cameras for use underwater, with the goal of capturing 3-D models of marine flora and fauna with a high degree of accuracy.
PITTCON Booth #843 -- Si-Ware Systems (SWS), a premier provider of IC- and MEMS-based solutions for industrial and consumer applications, has launched volume production of the smallest, lowest-cost infra-red spectrometer "engine" for developers. The award-winning NeoSpectra™ sensor module is now shipping to customers for development of innovative hand-held devices for material analysis in the field.
