Researchers from the Optics Group at the Universitat Jaume I in Castellón have managed to correct in real time problems ...

Inspired by the human eye, our biomedical engineering lab at Georgia Tech has designed an adaptive lens made of soft, light-responsive, tissuelike materials. Our study is published in the journal ...

The prototype uses a Canon EOS R10 with a Dual Pixel CMOS sensor, which allows every pixel to participate in phase detection.

Lenses are used to bend and focus light. Normal lenses rely on their curved shape to achieve this effect, but physicists have made a flat lens of only three atoms thick which relies on quantum effects ...

Researchers in China have developed a pair of contact lenses that can help people see infrared light, potentially giving wearers functional night vision. The lenses were tested on both mice and humans ...

Galaxy clusters are formed by a dense packing of many galaxies, making them the most massive structures in the universe.

A versatile wildlife lens for photographing a variety of subjects near and far, but its maximum aperture will slow you down in low light. Still, for the money, it's an excellent lens. Why you can ...
