Existing algorithms can partially reconstruct the shape of a single tree from a clean point-cloud dataset acquired by laser-scanning technologies. Doing the same with forest data has proven far more ...

In a recent review article published in Photonics Research, researchers summarize advances in “twisted light” and “twisted matter,” and how structured light can probe, control, and help fabricate ...

For decades, the ability to visualize the chemical composition of materials, whether for diagnosing a disease, assessing food quality, or analyzing pollution, depended on large, expensive laboratory ...

Examining one category — ambient-light sensing — represented by one of last January’s Product of the Year award winners, demonstrates how quickly some technology fields can alter course. Right after ...

Remote sensing can help provide greater understanding of arid regions, water resource potential and dam failure.

Remote Sensing explores sound detection through tree antennas and copper wires in Hinkley, CA. Throughout the last century, Southern California drove technologies developed to detect the undetectable ...

The researchers fabricated chip-based interferometers (pictured) to measure how light propagating through a magneto-optic material changed in response to a magnetic field. WASHINGTON — Researchers ...

The online and on-campus remote sensing for natural resources certificate program delivers the hands-on experience and technical knowledge needed to excel in natural resources research and management.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – The National Reconnaissance Office will invite companies to propose remote sensing capabilities on an ongoing basis. In the past, the agency responsible for designing, building ...
