The James Webb Space Telescope's Near-Infrared camera (NIRCam) captured stunning imagery of Neptune. It is the "clearest view ...

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) has captured a stunning view of supernova remnant ...

The groundbreaking infrared sensors use layers of repeating molecular structures to interact with individual photons, or units of light. The sensors resolve more wavelengths of infrared at a higher ...

Researchers have used the centuries-old idea of pinhole imaging to create a high-performance mid-infrared imaging system without lenses. The new camera can capture extremely clear pictures over a ...

Scientists have developed a lens-free mid-infrared camera using a modern twist on pinhole imaging. The system uses nonlinear crystals to convert infrared light into visible, allowing standard sensors ...

Over 500 million years of evolution, arthropods have developed complex compound eyes with special visual capabilities 1. In nature, common dragonflies, fruit flies, ants, beetles, and bees have a pair ...

The Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy, SOFIA, studies the universe with infrared light. That’s a range of wavelengths on the infrared spectrum, from those measuring about 700 nanometers ...

The cooled mid-wave infrared biomimetic compound eye camera has wide range of applications, such as industrial inspection, military project, and security. Due to the low resolution of individual eyes ...

Researchers use laser light to form a tiny “optical pinhole” inside a nonlinear crystal, which also turns the infrared image into a visible image that a traditional silicon-based camera sensor can ...
