Beam

Scatter pattern produced by doughnut-shaped beams of light bouncing off of an object with a regularly repeating structure. Credit: Wang, et al., 2023, “Optica”To study nanoscale patterns in tiny electronic or photonic components, a new method based on lensless imaging allows for near-perfect high-resolution microscopy. Ptychography, a powerful form of lensless imaging, uses a scanning beam to collect scattered light for image reconstruction, facing challenges with periodic samples.To study nanoscale patterns in tiny…

As humans spend increasing amounts of time indoors, we lose access to the sun’s natural benefits. Recognition of season affective disorder has grown accordingly. While the actual occurrence of the condition is low (around 5% — or 10 million or so Americans),  it’s led to increasing awareness of the sun’s impact on the production of serotonin in the brain – and its resulting impact on the human body. Light therapy lamps have become increasingly popular as a result. I bought one a while back. It’s big, unwieldy and…

Finnish startup Kuva Space has unveiled plans to provide the US government with hyperspectral data. A powerful technology with diverse applications, hyperspectral imagery analyses a wider light spectrum than traditional sensors. As a result, it can unravel new insights about scanned objects. Here on Earth, the techniques have discovered artworks hidden under Picasso paintings and enhanced colours in smartphone photos. Up in space, the possibilities are almost endless.  With views across our…

A single pancake may capture where you poke a straw into it, but it takes a whole stack to record the straw’s direction. Similarly, Kobe University researchers could accurately image a gamma-ray-emitting pulsar (the sky’s lighthouses) with a stack of radioactivity-sensitive films on a balloon. To be able to tell the orientation of the dangling gondola relative to the stars, they added a star camera and a device to timestamp the gamma-rays’ impacts.

I recently spoke with No More Heroes creator Suda51 about a previously unexplained moment in Travis Touchdown history. Specifically, I found out the story behind Travis’s unique look in the 2019 reveal trailer for No More Heroes 3. Disheveled, bearded, and wearing a neck brace, this middle-aged gamer playing Ape Out wasn’t the same man No More Heroes fans had grown to love. At least, not for the first few minutes. Shortly after this scene in the actual game, Travis hits a button on his Switch-esque Death Glove and suits…

Philips Hue is expanding its outdoor smart lighting lineup with a new model called Dymera that beams both up and down, allowing dramatic effects for your home's exterior (or interior). The lights feature a black design and two individually controllable beams, letting you set illumination and individual colors for each using the Philips Hue app. You can also use the app's scene gallery to create a more cohesive look. The Dymera lights go on sale February 27 for $220.The brand (now under the Signify umbrella) also launched…

Elon Musk's SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket on Tuesday with the first set of Starlink satellites that can beam phone signals from space directly to smartphones. "Falcon 9 launches 21 Starlink satellites to orbit from California, including six with Direct to Cell capabilities," said SpaceX, while tweeting the video of the launch. Milestone Alert! Livemint…
