The scanner lacks any sort of IR emitter/camera combo, opting to use a laser and a USB VGA camera instead. While scanning, the laser shines across the target surface, and the reflected light is ...

Expert sommeliers can take a whiff of a glass of wine and tell you a lot about what's in your pinot noir or cabernet sauvignon. A team of physicists at CU Boulder and the National Institute of ...

This 3D-printed confocal laser scanning microscope is a good example of an instrument for measuring really small stuff. As [Zachary Tong] points out, confocal scanning microscopy uses a clever ...

Shenzhen Creality 3D Technology Co., Ltd. today announced the launch of the Creality Raptor Pro 3D Scanner, a groundbreaking ...

Laser scanning technology for building security applications utilises the time-of-flight method, in which a sensor emits a pulse that is then reflected by a target, if present. The time required for ...

The application areas are spread across all industries. Thus, besides determining the blade angle of razors, the laser scanner can also be employed for determining the thickness of potato slices, the ...

Recent advances in quantitative imaging technology, such as laser scanning cytometry (LSC) and new methodologies in the analysis of cell signalling, now allow the detection of signalling and ...
