For many centuries, the principle of triangulation - that is the geometric measurement using three-point relationships - has been relatively well known. In Europe, the land survey method established ...

ROHM’s RLD8BQAB3 1-kW, 905-nm, 8-diode laser array comes in a 5.6- × 3.3-mm SMD package. The spectral output is well-suited to ADAS applications for high-speed vehicles, providing scene illumination ...

Researchers built a chip-sized processor and 3D-printed copper antenna arrays that could enable flexible, wearable wireless systems for auto, aviation, and space. (Nanowerk News) Washington State ...

Ring microlasers are eyed as potential light sources for photonic applications, but they first must be made more powerful. Combining multiple microlasers into an array solves only half of the problem, ...
