The use of deformable mirrors to correct unwanted optical aberrations in real time is helping applications ranging from astronomy to biophotonics and data storage, reports Neil Savage. Adaptive optics ...

Previous reports have suggested that Apple is planning to fit a 200-megapixel camera to an iPhone in either 2027 or 2028. While squeezing ever more pixels into the same size sensor would be bad news ...

The Hi-Speed DM37 deformable mirror from Alpao (Biviers, France) has a clear aperture of 7.5 mm but a large stroke of more than ±35 μm for astigmatism and focus wavefront correction, nonlinearity ...

Abstract: The Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHWS) is an essential tool for wavefront sensing in adaptive optical microscopes. However, the distorted spots induced by the complex wavefront challenge ...

Installing a smart water sensor can save you a lot of money and hassle. The top leak detectors we've tested immediately alert you to issues and even shut off your home's water supply. I’ve been ...

In the early hours of December 14, 2005, the upper reservoir at Missouri’s Taum Sauk pumped storage plant overflowed. A faulty sensor let water rise past its limit — until it tore through concrete and ...
