A Closer Look at Artificial Vision
Computer vision has been around for decades, but the concept of artificial vision is relatively new as recent years have witnessed a rise in technology mimicking the functionality of biological eyes to replicate or enhance natural vision. Here we... -
Measuring Aspheres with Next-Gen Solutions
An aspheric lens, or sometimes known as an asphere, is a lens that’s not part of a sphere or cylinder and it can depart somewhat from a sphere. The more complex surface profile of an asphere not only reduces or eliminates spherical aberration... -
Soil Characterization Using the NIRQuest+ Spectrometer
In this experiment, we identified the moisture content of organic and topsoil samples using the NIRQuest+2.5 spectrometer (900-2500 nm) as part of a diffuse reflectance system. Determining moisture content in soil has great significance in... -
Robotic Fruit Picking
The fresh fruit industry is still largely dependent on seasonal workers, which presents many challenges because there has been a serious worker shorter in recent years. Relying on humans for this task may be becoming a thing of the past.... -
Deep-Learning Framework Uses X-ray CT to Inspect 3D Printed Metal Parts
A new deep-learning framework developed at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory is helping to speed up the process of inspecting 3D printed metal parts using X-ray computed tomography (CT). It’s also reducing costs... -
