While working on a high-tech imaging project, Professor Dominic Zerulla and his nano-optics team at the University College of Dublin (UCD) discovered something unexpected.

Düsseldorf, Germany — Liquid silicone rubber is a key material used in new adaptive driving beam headlights, which automatically shine less light on occupied areas of the road and more light on ...

Tunability in lenses typically requires bulky components, but researchers have created a metasurface lens that uses a piezoelectric thin film to change focal length when a small voltage is applied.

The painstaking process of designing optical lenses for imaging systems is poised for a dramatic transformation thanks to a groundbreaking AI-powered method developed by researchers at King Abdullah ...

Optical metamaterials are ready for initial commercial deployment and will command a market worth several billion dollars by 2030. Those are two of the main conclusions from the latest market report ...

Compact lenses can help create a mirrorless camera system that’s nearly pocketable – and a recently published patent suggests ...

This technique shared by [Andy Kong] is for 3D printed lenses, but would probably be worth a shot for any resin prints that need to be made nice and clear. The link to his post on X is here, but we’ll ...
