By Ramesh Raskar and Christopher Barsi High-speed imaging is a long-standing goal in optics, with applications in spectral dynamics, motion analysis, and three-dimensional imaging. Currently, commercially available systems can offer sensors operating at one million frames per second at reduced spatial resolution.1 In the lab setting, serial time-encoding of 2D images have provided 100 ps […]

ICALEO 2013 Boasts Innovative Laser-Driven Manufacturing Research & Technology
By Geoff Giordano ORLANDO, FL, November 6, 2013 – Ultrafast lasers are allowing humans to “see” objects around corners and facilitate the “printing” of human cells, attendees of the Laser Institute of America’s (LIA) 32nd International Congress on Applications of Lasers and Electro-Optics (ICALEO®) learned Oct. 6-10 in Miami. About 100 first-time participants joined more than […]
High Speed Laser Engraving in Anti-Counterfeiting
Counterfeiting is a major and global problem for the pharmaceutical industries, with extremely important societal and economic consequences. It is for instance estimated that 10% of global pharmaceutical sales are conterfeit products, with a much higher ratio in Africa and parts of Asia. In addition to serious health issues, especially in developing countries, the revenue […]
