The novel LIDAR ("light detection and ranging") system could have applications from precision manufacturing lines on Earth to maintaining networks of satellites in perfect formation, creating a giant ...

Reliable detection of fast-moving objects or objects that are tough to detect at longer ranges distinguishes SICK’s Dx35 line of laser distance measurement sensors. Reliable detection of fast-moving ...

The major goal of quantum metrology has been to create highly entangled states with improved sensitivity per resource than classical approaches. However, collective observations are required to reach ...
