DARPA foresees this technology will open up a new class of miniaturized, extremely low-cost, robust laser-scanning technologies (LIDAR), which could lead to greatly enhanced capabilities for ...

This 3D-printed confocal laser scanning microscope is a good example of an instrument for measuring really small stuff. As [Zachary Tong] ... with a laser diode light source, ...

Light emitted by the tags is collected, and a 3D image is built up from multiple scans of the sample at different focal planes. Like many DIY projects, this microscope is built from old DVD parts ...

Bacterium in a laser trap: Light tube can grab and scan even tiniest of unicellular organisms. ScienceDaily. Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2012 / 10 / 121004104052.htm.

Microvision Inc. of Bothell has demonstrated for the first time a new ultralow-power technique for scanning a beam of light that could improve high-resolution electronic displays and imaging ...

FMCW lidar detects objects by scanning laser light from the top of an autonomous vehicle. A single laser beam splits into a comb of other wavelengths, called a microcomb, to scan an area. Light ...

YouTube’s Doctor Volt repurposed a Blu-Ray drive, which are now easy to find on the cheap in the era of streaming content, to build a simple scanning laser microscope. A couple of custom ...

Lidar technology uses pulses of laser light to map the contours of 3D surfaces and structures.. For example, 2D photographs can capture the major features of a landscape, but lidar reveals every ...
