The latest development in night vision technology centers around a new lens that captures infrared light. This cutting-edge advancement significantly enhances visibility in low-light environments, ...

The next generation in night vision for the U.S. military may be something that is already a commercial success in such applications as noninvasive medical examinations and silicon wafer inspection.

Human vision is limited to a relatively narrow section of the electromagnetic spectrum. Night-vision goggles allow people to see infrared but are bulky and require power. According to a new study in ...

Researchers at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Transformative Meta-Optical Systems (TMOS) have recently achieved a groundbreaking advancement in night vision technology. They have developed an ...

Scientists have developed revolutionary contact lenses that grant wearers the ability to see infrared light—a feat humans naturally cannot achieve. This breakthrough, detailed in the journal Cell00454 ...

Neuroscientists and materials scientists have created contact lenses that enable infrared vision in both humans and mice by converting infrared light into visible light. Unlike infrared night vision ...

Something to look forward to: Night vision goggles have their uses but also many drawbacks, including their weight. A new development eliminates this cost-benefit analysis – in fact, it could ...

Night vision could be available to everyone in the coming future. The possibility comes after ultra-thin nanocrystals are letting even typical glasses see infrared light — which helps in having a ...

Night vision binoculars aren’t just for the military. With an explosion in recent years of invasive animals such as wild hogs, coyotes, armadillos, and more, hunting at night has never been more ...

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The Pennsylvania Game Commission has approved the use of night vision and infrared (thermal) optics in the hunting of furbearers, animals traditionally trapped or hunted for ...

Night-vision cameras convert infrared light – outside the spectrum visible to humans – into visible light so we can “see in the dark”. But this infrared information only allows a black-and-white image ...
