3D object detection in various road situations is a necessity for safe autonomous driving. For example, a white 18-wheel-truck next to the cloudy sky or a single, dropped, black tire on a highway ...
Photolithography is an essential microfabrication technique used to pattern substrates for modern electronics, sensors and microfluidics. It is a precision form of customized surface fabrication where the interface of a wafer is coated with a photoresist ...
Researchers have developed a new fabrication process that allows infrared (IR) glass to be combined with another glass and formed into complex miniature shapes. The technique can be used to create complex infrared optics that could make IR imaging and sensing more broadly accessible.
“With further development our technique could enable endoscopic microfabrication tools that would be valuable during surgery,” he said. “These tools could be used to print micro- or nano-scale 3D structures that facilitate the adhesion and growth of ...
Apple began introducing Force Touch (aka 3D Touch) to its devices in 2014 with the Apple Watch. It subsequently brought it to the MacBook's trackpad and
The non-magnetic MEMS speakers enable the manufacture of headphones to protect patients from loud noises and relax them while inside MRI machines. USound, global developer of micro-electro ...
The safety glass used in the windshields of limousines and military vehicles needs to be hard, strong and shatter-proof, but also thin—both for visibility and to reduce its weight, a particularly important feature for aerospace vehicles.
The optical characteristics were created by a combination of thin metallic covering and subwavelength properties of Si nanoscale or microscale texture. It was demonstrated that altering the depth of the covering led to considerable IR absorbance increase ...
The reduction in resources has been compared to using one liter of water and one kilogram of material instead of the entire volumes of water in all oceans to test material corresponding to the entire mass of Mount Everest.
