InVisage's new image sensor for infrared cameras could help drones avoid trees and could aid virtual reality headsets in seeing where you're pointing. Stephen Shankland worked at CNET from 1998 to ...

There are a bunch of dedicated devices that literally lift the veil of darkness to reveal a secret nocturnal world. Some ...

People who tested a new type of designer contact lens could see flashing infrared signals from a light source. Humans have a new way of seeing infrared light, without the need for clunky night-vision ...

Neuroscientists and materials scientists have created contact lenses that enable infrared vision in both humans and mice by converting infrared light into visible light. (Nanowerk News) ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Night vision is typically monotone—everything the wearer can see ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers from TMOS, the ARC Centre of Excellence for Transformative Meta-Optical Systems, have made significant progress in their journey to deliver a new approach to night vision ...

Galaxies like our Milky Way grew through cascading mergers of smaller galaxies that began billions of years ago. The ancient progenitors of galaxies like ours were small galaxies similar to modern-day ...

Scientists have developed revolutionary contact lenses that grant wearers the ability to see infrared light—a feat humans naturally cannot achieve. This breakthrough, detailed in the journal Cell00454 ...

Mice gain the ability to see in the dark when their eyes are injected with metal nanoparticles that convert infrared radiation into visible light. All objects and animals emit low-energy infrared ...

Much like some snakes use infrared to 'see' at night, researchers are working to create similar viper vision to improve the sensitivity of night-vision cameras. Much like some snakes use infrared to ...

A new technique that combines gene therapy and nanotechnology enables mice and human retinas to detect infrared radiation. Such a method could someday supplement lost vision in patients suffering from ...
