London’s Gatwick airport will be the first airport in the world to trial autonomous vehicles to transport its staff around the airfield
A laser-based imaging device developed at Stanford University is able to observe images hidden round corners. Although this isn’t the first time researchers have achieved this, the Stanford group's algorithm can process 3D images in less than a second and can also run on a regular laptop
A consortium of European universities and British photonics technology company M Squared is set to test one of the core principles of quantum mechanics as part of a major €4.4 million (£3.9 million) research project
Jessica Rowbury looks at how some of the technologies demonstrated at the Consumer Electronics Show in January will transform the driving experience
A wideband sensor able to measure toxic gasses at speeds of 120km/h and heights of 4,000 metres has been developed by European researchers
Researchers from the University of Utah, United States, have developed a lidar mapping tool that could help firefighters make crucial safety decisions with an eagle's eye view.
Nanostructures of the wing of the black butterfly can be transferred to solar cells to enhance their absorption rates by up to 200 per cent, researchers have found
Research institute Leti has integrated hybrid III-V silicon lasers on 200mm wafers using a standard CMOS process flow, offering an alternative to 100mm wafers and a process based on bulk III-V technology that requires contacts with noble metals and lift-off based patterning
Dr Wenko Süptitz, Spectaris, reports on November's Medica show, where optical diagnostics, endoscopy, microscopy, medical lasers and Industry 4.0 were highlighted as important areas for photonics
