+TIP: an optical solution for surgical guidance
September 6, 2023Visible light communication (VLC) for indoor/outdoor applications
September 15, 2023The technique, based on IR digital holography, allows vision through a curtain of smoke and/or flames and can therefore be a great help for rescuers in real fire scenarios. The system has been recently miniaturized in view of its possible integration in the equipment of firefighters.
Demostrations:
– Standard Visible vs SWIR DH
Stage of development: TRL 6 – Prototype tested on controlled fronts of smoke and flames.
