Diffractive Optical Network Enables Snapshot Multispectral Imaging

Diffractive Optical Network Enables Snapshot Multispectral Imaging

UCLA researchers led by Aydogan Ozcan and Mona Jarrahi have developed a multispectral imaging technology capable of turning a monochrome sensor into a multispectral one. Rather than the traditional absorptive filters used for multispectral imaging, the technology uses a diffractive optical network to form 16 unique spectral bands periodically repeating at the output image field ...

Unveiling Italy’s Hidden History With Fixed-wing Mapping UAVs

Unveiling Italy’s Hidden History With Fixed-wing Mapping UAVs

Mapping an archaeological site is key to being able to dig with greater precision. Now with the latest digital methods, areas of interest can easily be identified rapidly and non-invasively – helping to protect the site and future excavations. Here, Chris Thompson, Global Sales Manager at AgEagle, looks at how a team of Duke University ...

Using Sentinel-2 Data For Seawater Quality Monitoring

In an article published in the journal Remote Sensing, the researchers used Sentinel-2/Multispectral Instrument (MSI) imagery data to a calibrated ocean chlorophyll 2-band (OC-2) model to retrieve chlorophyll-a (chl-a) concentration in the Ha Long bay from 2019 to 2021. Using Sentinel-2 MSI photos on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform, this study examines the anthropogenic ...
