Industrial

Medical Imaging Cameras have been incorporated into a number of fields. In neurology, they’ve already completely changed neurosurgery and even assist in further exploring the human brain.

Innovation in imaging for aerospace and defense has gone micro. Powerful, yet tiny micro-cameras can now provide unique streaming-video solutions for a wide range of applications requiring highly robust systems for direct visualization under extremely harsh conditions.

Borescopes and Endoscopic cameras. From a bird’s eye view, these may seem similar: a flexible or rigid tube with Chip-on-Tip / CMOS technology. Zooming in, we can appreciate the powerful capabilities they provide for a spectrum of visualization applications -- in aerospace, industrial inspection, defense/security, research, and of course, cutting-edge medicine. Let’s examine some innovations and trends.

We describe a new class of lensless, ultra-miniature computational imagers and image sensors employing special optical phase gratings integrated with CMOS photodetector matrices.

Endoscopes are evolving to minimize infections and the impact of procedures. How can technology help?

Since the dawn of modern medicine, doctors have pursed the use of technology to help them see into the human body...

Endoscopes have evolved since Philipp Bozzini first developed the device in 1806, with modern versions using fiber-optics, light sources, improved optical components, and cameras placed at their distal tip....
