A team of scientists have integrated an ultrasensative sensor called a “superconducting nanowire single-photon detector,” or ...

If you’ve got good eyesight, you can probably see a person’s general figure from around 300 meters (1000 feet). If you’re ...

LiDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, is a technology pervading many different industries. One of the biggest ...

Imagine being able to capture a high-resolution 3D image of a distant object—even a human face—through fog, foliage, or ...

Researchers have designed a single-photon time-of-flight LiDAR system that can acquire a high-resolution 3D image of an object or scene up to 1 kilometer away. The new system could help enhance ...

The resulting GEDI (Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation) NASA project includes a triple-laser-based LiDAR system that was launched to the International Space Station in late 2018 by CRS-16 ...

The department “Lidar” develops ground-based, airborne and spaceborne lidar systems and applies them for active remote sensing of key meteorological parameters and atmospheric trace gases to ...

What’s wrong with traditional images from space or miniature scale models? Lidar produces not just an image but a high-resolution geometric representation of a city in motion. Slight slopes in ...
