X-ray cameras designed by MIT astrophysicists are a key component of a new instrument aboard an orbiting Japanese observatory that will probe the secrets of such phenomena as exploding stars. Recently ...

While seabed-located cameras are great for tasks such as monitoring wildlife, powering them and retrieving their photos can be challenging. That's where a new MIT-designed camera comes in, as it ...

A project at MIT's Picower Institute for Learning and Memory has developed a sensor chip suited in particular to enhanced imaging of neural activity. Described in Nature Communications, the chip ...

After a long time of work, engineers at MIT now have an underwater camera without wires. In addition, this camera also does not need a battery. This device will help scientists easily explore ...

For decades, traditional cameras worked very much like the human eye: the cornea served as the lens cover, the iris and pupil became the aperture, and the lens became, well, the camera lens. But human ...

Engineers with MIT have created a wireless, battery-free underwater camera that can operate autonomously for long periods of time. The device, which the engineers detailed in a study featured in the ...

Many scenes you point a camera at are doomed to result in a crappy picture. Either the background is blown out, or the foreground is too dark. It’s a limitation of every camera sensor. MIT is working ...

Sept. 26 (UPI) --Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology said Monday they've developed a prototype battery-free camera for underwater use, which they said could help monitor the ...

Parts of the ocean that have previously gone unexplored might soon become familiar. Engineers at MIT have built a wireless, battery-free underwater camera that uses sound to power deep-sea journeys.

Designed for undersea use, the device could operate autonomously for weeks. MIT researchers have developed a battery-­free, wireless underwater camera that is about 100,000 times more energy efficient ...
