Photonics West 2021: Making sense of sensors for self-drive 12 Mar 2021 From Ford Burkhart Development lab at Lyft Level 5 in Sunnyvale, California.The autonomous vehicle (AV) industry â at companies like Lyft, Waymo and Argo â is not actually looking for a super-sensor. Leading experts from these companies agreed in a Photonics West Digital Forum panel on Thursday that the key is how an autoâs many cameras, lidar and radar systems can cooperate to fill in each otherâs blind spots. Whatâs vital, said Michel Laverne, of Argo AI, is âfusing together their distinct views of the worldâ to move to at least Level 4 â known as high driving automation (mostly with no human intervention). Little was said about the futuristic Level 5, smart cars potentially without even steering wheels ....
Photonics West 2021: Microendoscopy shows details of neuron responses 11 Mar 2021 Yeka Aponte investigates how behaviors are regulated and the implications for pain relief. Pain and gain: the brain s response Studies of neural behavior using microendoscopy techniques are enhancing the understanding of how the brains of mice respond to both appetite and pain. Presenting in the SPIE Photonics West Digital Forum, Yeka Aponte from the National Institutes of Health and Johns Hopkins University discussed how this could ultimately point towards novel pain relief treatments for humans. We are studying the mechanisms by which brain circuits regulate natural or survival behavior, said Aponte. This is relevant to two current global epidemics: obesity, and the crisis of opioid overdoses. ....
Photonics West 2021: Quantum pioneers explore commercial priorities 11 Mar 2021 QED-C report suggests that prioritization of laser requirements will help âclear the fogâ and reduce market uncertainty. Lasers are critical to the emerging commercial quantum ecosystem, but a prioritization of applications is needed to help technology developers focus on more specific source requirements. That was one of the key take-away messages from the inaugural SPIE Quantum West symposium, taking place this week within the wider Photonics West Digital Forum. Piercing the fog Speaking during the âPhotonics in Quantumâ session of the four-day event, Vescent Photonics CEO Scott Davis said although lasers and other photonic components would underpin a quantum systems market sector expected to be worth hundreds of billions of dollars in the future (and tens of billions for the laser and photonic elements), getting to that point would require clarification ....
Photonics West 2021: Raman techniques assist biomedical analysis 09 Mar 2021 Jürgen Popp expects the detection abilities of Raman to enhance patient care and public health. Raman and Lab-on-a-chip: rapid sample throughput New applications of Raman spectroscopy and associated detection schemes are poised to enhance bedside care for patients and tackle a number of current challenges outside medicine. Addressing the SPIE Photonics West Digital Forum, Jürgen Popp of the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (IPHT) outlined recent developments in Raman-related spectroscopy, along with the prospects for translation of the technology into real-world applications. Popp discussed four specific and currently unmet needs: better monitoring of drug efficacy at the patient s bedside; the ability to detect pathogens spectroscopically without the need for labeling of those species; better measurement of water contaminants as a way to improve public health; an ....
