European scientists have developed a handheld scanner that can read your heart's vital signs like a supermarket barcode reader can scan items at the checkout, allowing a GP to diagnose even preclinical patients for the early onset of a disease.

Manufacturer of hi-reliability modular user configurable power supplies,Excelsys Technologies, is exhibiting at the Laser World of Photonics exhibition being held in Munich from 26th to 29th June. The Laser World of Photonics show showcases products including electro-optics and acousto-optics, photoelectric tubes, opto-electronic devices, optical systems and software for laser and optic systems. In addition manufacturers and distributors of elect...

A tiny sphere and a laser beam inside of which it hovers as if by magic: with these simple ingredients Martin Frimmer and co-workers at the Photonics Laboratory of ETHZurich have developed a highly sensitive sensor. In the future this device is expected to measure, amongst other things, extremely weak forces or electric fields very precisely. Now the researchers have taken a major step in that direction, as they write in a recently published scie...

A new generation of line laser modules for machine vision will be presented atLASER World of PHOTONICS 2017 by LASER COMPONENTS. The M18 threaded MV18 module is the latest addition to the MV series, while existing models like MVnano, MVpico and MVfemto have been re-engineered for better functionality and flexibility.

Light technologies provide tremendous potential for growth and innovation, as shown by two new studies by VDMA and Photonics21. Strong core areas, impressive growth rates far above the gross domestic product and high expenditures on research and development indicate successful outlooks up to the year 2020.

The firstseries of wireless laser power meters will be presented byGentec Electro Opticsat the LASER World of PHOTONICS trade show in Munich. The product line combines a detector and a Bluetooth-enabled metre unit in a convenient, all-in-one product. Using the free Gentec-EO BLU app, measuring results can be displayed on both iOs and Android smartphones.

This week’s Laser World of Photonics in Munich will see Comau present its new laser technology on its stand (A3:151). The company has developed the LHYTE (Laser HYbrid Technology) in collaboration with Prima Electro and is designed for industrial laser applications.

Debuting at the recent “LASER World of Photonics” show in Munich, LASERCOMPONENTS has announced the arrival of new 1270nm laser diodes,extending the range from Seminex to 1270 - 1700nm. Studies and trials havedemonstrated that 1270nm serves to enhance immune response to vaccines whilstavoiding side effects such as soreness, inflammation, erythema and tissue damagethat are often associated with chemical adjuvants.

In co-operation withOptech Consulting, LASER World of PHOTONICS 2017 again stages the 13th International Laser Marketplace. The seminar and conference on Laser Materials Processing takes place on Wednesday 28th June 2017, from 12:45-17:00, in the conference room of the press centre West of the Messe München fairground. Worldwide experts will discuss international markets and market trends as well as new applications and technologies.The firs...

Traditional cameras-even those on the thinnest of cell phones-cannot be truly flat due to their optics: lenses that require a certain shape and size in order to function. At Caltech, engineers have developed a new camera design that replaces the lenses with an ultra-thin optical phased array (OPA). The OPA does computationally what lenses do using large pieces of glass: it manipulates incoming light to capture an image.
