The aim was to show how powerful surveillance technology such as face recognition appears when used on individuals controlled ...

Scientists have developed a lens-free mid-infrared camera using a modern twist on pinhole imaging. The system uses nonlinear crystals to convert infrared light into visible, allowing standard sensors ...

Contrary to popular belief, most property crimes—including burglaries and package theft—happen during the day, not under cover of darkness. But night still brings unique challenges: fewer people ...

The contact lens technology uses nanoparticles that absorb infrared light and convert it into wavelengths that are visible to mammalian eyes (e.g., electromagnetic radiation in the 400-700 nm range).

Humans have a new way of seeing infrared light, without the need for clunky night-vision goggles. Researchers have made the first contact lenses to convey infrared vision — and the devices work even ...

Chromium doped lithium aluminate converts mechanical stress into near infrared light without pre charging or afterglow, enabling precise sensing and imaging in security and biomedical applications.

A converted digital camera can use infrared light to reveal Texas border militarization—in the same way the armed forces once ...

Our eyes take in the dazzling greens of dense forests, blues of alpine lakes, and reds and purples of sunset. Yet there’s an entire world hidden from sight. Our eyes only perceive a narrow sliver of ...
