Fiber Optic Gyros Put a New Spin on Navigation
Apr 1, 1997 — Aircraft, spacecraft and ships have long benefitted from using gyroscopes to help them navigate, and recently advances in photonic gyroscopes have brought this technology into the mainstream. These improved gyroscopes -- based on fiber optic tehchnology -- are solving navigational problems in automobiles, construction and industrial vehicles, antenna systems and agriculture. The gyroscope is a sensor that can measure rotation rates with respect to an inertial plane. Mechanical spinning-mass...

Stereo Displays Add A New Dimension to Work
Apr 1, 1997 — If commercially available stereoscopic displays could work without special glasses and be viewed from virtually any angle, by any number of people at once, we would probably view all three-dimensional data stereoscopically. Alas, such a technology...
Photonics Spectra, Apr 1997
Applications The Key to Imager Choice
Mar 1, 1997 — Unless you know the questions to ask, selecting the right imaging technology for your applications can seem more of a coin toss than an educated choice -- an outright nightmare for those uninitiated in the intracacies of solid-state imaging...
Photonics Spectra, Mar 1997

Mar 1, 1997 — The vertebrate olfactory system is well-known for its extraordinary sensitivity and broad selectivity. Tufts University researchers have incorporated this array format into the design of a broadband optical vapor sensor.
Photonics Spectra, Mar 1997
Diode Lasers Sing Spectroscopy's Tune
Mar 1, 1997 — Environmental issues such as global warming, ozone depletion and photochemical air pollution have increased concern about how pollutants affect the environment. This has led to an increased emphasis on detecting pollutants, understanding their...
Photonics Spectra, Mar 1997
Fiber Biosensors Help Decode Genes
Mar 1, 1997 — Deciphering the human genome and exploring genetic variation are fueling a biomedical revolution. Diagnosis of inherited disorders and disease at the genetic level relies on the identification and detection of the responsible gene sequences. Optical...
Photonics Spectra, Mar 1997
Fiber Bundle Grows Microscopy Tools
Mar 1, 1997 — Near-field optical techniques employ a single nanometer-size aperture that scans across a region of interest. Increasing the number of apertures expands the area that can be scanned at one time. Tufts University researchers have generated thousands...
Photonics Spectra, Mar 1997
Laser Technique Sniffs Out Pollutants
Mar 1, 1997 — While many factors can diminish a city's quality of life, one literally takes residents breath away: smog. Traffic, industrial pollution, weather patterns and geography can turn a perfectly lovely city into a very hazy place. Cleaning the air...
Photonics Spectra, Mar 1997
Laser-Induced Fluorescence Fires Up Engine Research
Mar 1, 1997 — As the world's sensitivity to environmental pollution increases, it is becoming increasingly important to understanding the overall nature of combustion. They key to this knowledge is precise and detailed measurement of the temperature, distribution...
Photonics Spectra, Mar 1997
Optical Fibers Make Sense of Chemicals
Mar 1, 1997 — Optical fibers have revolutionized a variety of fields: They carry images through endoscopes, voices through phone lines, data and video through cable networks, and, more recently, physical and chemical information through sensors. The fiber's...
