LightTools® 7.0 is the new release of the popular world-class illumination design and analysis software from Optical Research Associates (ORA®). LightTools 7.0 supports Windows 7 and delivers expanded capabilities for both model construction and system analysis. For example, complex light source models can now be created instantly from any geometric object, including those generated in LightTools using Boolean operations on basic shapes, or imported from other CAD software, such as SolidWorks®, using the LightTools SolidWorks Link Module. The ability to make any object a source provides an appreciable advantage to designers of infrared imaging systems in particular.
Aptina, the leading innovator of CMOS imaging technology, announced today that recent technology advances in addition to the recently released 14-megapixel 1080p60 MT9F011 have enhanced its portfolio of HD video enabled mobile products. This portfolio of products meets the needs of Aptina’s customers who are looking for best-in-class still and video CMOS imaging solutions to integrate into their mobile camera designs.
Smart Imaging Technologies has introduced ChipInsight™, an image-based, full-chip validation tool for the production flow of post-RET design validation. The product will be presented at SPIE's Advanced Lithography 2010 conference in San Jose, CA, 21 - 25 February 2010.
Voxtel has announced the release of its latest product line, the Deschutes BSI series of backside- illuminated APDs.
By taking advantage of a phenomenon that until now has been a virtual showstopper for electronics designers, a team led by Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Panos Datskos is developing a chemical and biological sensor with unprecedented sensitivity.
Scientists funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council and the British Heart Foundation at the University of Oxford have developed a revolutionary way of capturing a high-resolution still image alongside very high-speed video – a new technology that is attractive for science, industry and consumer sectors alike.
For pint-sized photographers, point-and-shoot fun is just a shutter away with three new Crayola-branded camera products from Sakar International. New 5.1 and 2.1 MP digital cameras – each with its own new just-for-kids design plus entertaining Crayola Color Genie photo editing/activity software – are scheduled to ship in Q3, along with a new digital scrapbooking kit that pairs the 2.1 MP camera and software with accessories for dressing up printed photos.
Samsung Electronics, a world leader in advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced that it has developed two new CMOS image sensors – the S5K4E2 and the S5K5CA – for the mobile phone market. Designers and manufacturers of high-end smart phones and slim mobile handsets can now integrate one of these high-performance, cost efficient, small form factor imagers into their next generation design.
Two state-of-the art solar instruments built at the Solar and Astrophysics Laboratory of the Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) Advanced Technology Center (ATC) in Palo Alto, were launched this morning at 10:23 a.m. EST aboard a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket. The Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA), a suite of four telescopes, will provide an unprecedented view of the solar corona, taking images that span at least 1.3 solar diameters in multiple wavelengths nearly simultaneously, at a resolution of about one arc-second and at a cadence of ten seconds or better. The Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI), designed in collaboration with Professor Philip Scherrer, HMI Principal Investigator, and other scientists at Stanford University, will study the origin of solar variability and attempt to characterize and understand the Sun's interior and magnetic activity.
Advanced Photonix, Inc. (R) (NYSE Amex: API) announced today that it has received a $2.4 million follow-on order from a major defense prime contractor to deliver products within a 26-month time frame beginning May 2010. The Company expects most of the revenue to be recognized evenly over the next two fiscal years. The products to be supplied for this order include a custom photodiode assembly and optical sensor used for the Navy's Guided Missile Systems. The Guided Missile Weapon System is the world's most modern ship self-defense weapon, and has been specifically designed to provide exceptional protection for multiple ship platforms.
