For this competency to be achieved appropriately, a question to be asked is how many physics teachers have seen a telescope in real life? Can you effectively teach about a telescope without having ...

Thermal imaging reveals heat that our eyes cannot see. Discover the insights behind creating a simple thermal camera microscope and how this DIY project brings a new perspective to scientific ...

There are small miracles of nature that we miss so much. The fine details of the natural world can be shown as minute as the veins of a leaf, the wings of an insect, or the tiny grains of pollen when ...

Sandra Ristovska, a professor of media studies at the University of Colorado Boulder, is a fellow at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University. A law enforcement ...

The play, in real time to the naked eye, might have looked very close to a violation. LeBron James leaped, got his right hand on the ball with a few tenths of the game’s final second remaining and ...

The microscope combines a big telecentric photolithography lens with a large tube lens to create sharp, detailed images of large and curved samples. These lenses project the image onto a flat array of ...

From high-speed cameras to pressure-mapping insoles, a biomechanics lab is breaking down the Eagles' most talked-about short-yardage play — and what it could mean for training and injuries. The ...

I have a colleague who's using an Omax A35 camera with ToupLite software to make micrographs. The issue with it is that the ToupLite software is not very good; I suspect it's a half-hearted port of a ...

For over a century, surgeons performing delicate procedures have relied on stereoscopic microscopes to gain a sense of depth. These tools mimic human vision by presenting slightly different images to ...

You know how you can feel when someone is looking at you? Thanks to a person detector, [Michael Rigsby’s] little robotic light switch also knows when you are looking at it. As you can see in the video ...

Analyzing magnetic nanostructures with a high resolution is a test-and-measurement challenge, but it’s important for both advanced physics insight as well as real-world products such as high-density ...
