Agriculture has shifted dramatically, focusing more on intelligent crop management than on traditional labour. Today, there are several precision agriculture applications that empower farmers to monitor crop health around the clock. That’s why the need for the right imaging solution is more important than ever before.

AI, and specifically Generative AI with its ability for predictive analytics, is becoming a critical component of digital transformation and future business growth in almost all industries.

Selecting the right camera for biometric systems is crucial to ensuring accurate and consistent image capture for applications like facial recognition, iris scanning, and access control. RGB-IR cameras have emerged as a game-changer by capturing both visible and infrared light on a single sensor, eliminating the need for mechanical IR cut filters. Explore the 5 essential features to consider when choosing an RGB-IR camera for biometric systems.

ABB has been selected by the German space and technology company OHB System AG to develop and build the thermal infrared payloads for the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Earth Explorer Harmony satellites, planned to launch in 2029.

LASER COMPONENTS has announced its range of VCSELs for a variety of applications.

Laird Thermal Systems launches the OptoTEC MBX Series, a line of micro thermoelectric coolers for high-performance space-constrained optoelectronic applications.

Facial recognition systems, though powerful, are vulnerable to spoofing attacks. To combat this, RGB-IR cameras have emerged as a crucial solution. By capturing both visible and infrared light, these cameras can detect liveness of a person's face. This makes it difficult for fake images, videos, or masks to bypass the system.

Hitachi High-Tech and The University of Tokyo (UTokyo) have been conducting joint research into practical applications of high-resolution Laser-PEEM developed by UTokyo in the semiconductor manufacturing process.

In the dynamic world of optoelectronics, where light and electronics come together, connection technology plays a crucial role in the performance and lifespan of laser diodes (LD) and photodiodes (PD). Tresky is offering customised solutions that are specially tailored to the requirements of DIE bonding of laser- and photodiodes.

Scientists have taken inspiration from the way sunlight passes through clouds to discover an entirely new way of controlling and guiding light.
