Have you ever thought of getting a small camera that can surpass any other device but uses little power? Well, a group of scientists has been able to achieve this with the help of a new compact camera that simply needs lights to complete these tasks.
This research was completed by two scientists and their team of talented students. What they achieved is a device capable of identifying objects at the speed of light. Here's what the camera is all about. . thephoblographer.com
A high-end mirrorless camera can shoot over 100 frames per second (FPS) but it pales in comparison to a camera system researchers in Canada have made that can shoot up to 156.3 trillion FPS. [Read More] petapixel.com »

Traditionally, camera-based technology has been used to track facial movements in real-time. But now, researchers at Cornell University have developed a wearable earphone device -- or "earable" -- that bounces sound off of a human's cheeks and transforms the echoes into an avatar of that person’s entire moving face.

Researchers from Northwestern’s Engineering department have invented a new high-resolution camera that can see around corners and through objects — even skin, fog, or a human skull. The process is called synthetic wavelength holography, and it’s a new method that works by indirectly scattering light onto hidden objects, which then scatters again and travels back […] petapixel.com »

A team of scientists from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich) have figured out how to capture super slow-motion footage using what’s called an “Event Camera.” That is: a camera that sees the world in a continuous stream of information, the way humans do. Regular cameras work by capturing discreet frames, […] petapixel.com »

Scientists have created a new lensless camera that can capture photos using a standard pane of window glass. University of Utah electrical and computer engineers detailed their breakthrough in a new research paper titled “Computational Imaging Enables a ‘See-Through’ Lensless Camera,” which has been published in the latest issue of Optics Express. The scientists say […] petapixel.com »
