WITec microscope technology has been selected as a winner of the prestigious 2008 R+D 100 Award. It honors the automated Confocal Raman and Atomic Force Microscope combination alpha500 as one of the 100 most technologically significant innovations of the year.
Eastman Kodak Company today announced the latest addition to its Z-Series line of digital cameras, bringing consumers greater control when taking pictures under various lighting conditions and distances. The KODAK EASYSHARE Z1015 IS Digital Camera offers maximum versatility for serious photographers to easily handle both long-distance and wide-angle shots, while also incorporating Kodak's innovative Smart Capture feature, which adjusts the camera's settings for a great picture in virtually any environment -- automatically.
TRUMPF Medical Systems, Inc. has introduced the world's first in-light high definition (HD) operating room camera. The TruVidia HD captures and transmits razor sharp, true-to-life images with 1080 lines horizontal resolution and 2 million pixels. The images are more than twice as clear as those available from standard definition (SD) cameras.
HumanWare expands its low vision product line with the announcement of four new video magnifiers at Vision 2008, an international conference on low vision being held in Montreal this week. With these new products, HumanWare is better able to serve the needs of the growing number of people with low vision - those whose vision cannot be completely corrected even with the most powerful prescription glasses.
Laser technology has revolutionised the world of medicine in ways never before thought of. More and more often the scalpel is giving way to a new generation of lasers. Now the FAST-DOT project, backed by the EU with EUR 10.1 million in financing, is underway to develop a new line of lasers for biomedical applications.
MIT researchers have achieved a significant advance in nanoscale lithographic technology, used in the manufacture of computer chips and other electronic devices, to make finer patterns of lines over larger areas than have been possible with other methods.
Led by Sri Sridhar, Distinguished Professor and Chair of Physics at Northeastern University, a team of researchers from the university's Electronic Materials Research Institute has published research that has resulted in a new breakthrough in the field of nanophotonics, the study of light at the nanoscale level. Utilizing nanomanufacturing processes, the researchers were able to develop an optical microlens with a step-like surface, instead of a smooth surface, that has the capacity to operate at infrared frequencies using the novel phenomenon of negative index refraction.
The Magellan XHR SEM allows scientists and engineers to quickly see things they could not see before, such as 3D surface images at many different angles and at resolutions below one nanometer (about the size of ten hydrogen atoms, side-by-side).
Acoustic waves play many everyday roles - from communication between people to ultrasound imaging. Now the highest frequency acoustic waves in materials, with nearly atomic-scale wavelengths, promise to be useful probes of nanostructures such as LED lights.
Sunovia Energy Technologies, Inc., a renewable energy and energy conservation company, is pleased to announce that it has finalized an exclusive partnership with Kauffman Consulting, LLC for the design and development of proprietary, high-efficiency LED based solid-state lighting fixtures and solar lighting systems.
