3D has been slowly gaining traction as a display mode, but there are still various experiments being done with the concept, such as one involving engineers from the Ohio State University and a certain lens.There are many more uses for 3D than in the making of entertainment videos meant for the cinema or consumers ow... |

People who have a very poor sight and are unable to detect details at even close ranges could soon benefit from a new implant, able to restore at least some of their sight. The pea-sized implant is destined specifically for individuals with a certain form of macular degeneration, in which the retina is severely affec... |

Known by the original name of “Madonna del Cardellino”, Rafael's 107 by 77 cm (42 by 30 inches) painting is perhaps one of the masterpieces with the most violent past. But now it is safe and sound thanks to the joined efforts of a large number of technicians from the Opificio Delle Pietre Dure in Flo... |

Among many other things, one is 100% sure: microscopes are fun. Seeing into the very heart of objects gives people a new perspective upon the materials they use everyday, from money to clothes, food and so much more; by letting us get dramatically close to the very nature of the things surrounding us in our ever... |

The following few years could bring us a ground-shaking new atomic microscope based on the fantastically smooth mirror just developed by the scientists from the Surface Science Laboratory at Universidad Autonoma de Madrid. While this new device type would not provide a much higher resolution than the currently-used e... |

Microscopes are not exactly devices you would like to carry around in your pocket all day. They are generally bulky, require proper light sources, are fragile and last but not least, they are expensive. Their place is in the laboratory, not on the road. A new invention could make microscopes not only extremely small ... |

Carl Zeiss does it again. After signing partnerships with some other heavy names in the optical devices industry, they decided to look closer into the medical field or wherever some might need microscopes.This is not Carl Zeiss SMT's first attempt to revolutionize the way we view the world. The giant company ha... |

Now, porn really can go down to a very low level. Scripts can include sperm cells and eggs or bacteria if you want. A MIT team has designed a microscope that acts like a camera generating three-dimensional movies of live cells. The device functions like a cellular CT scanner, giving researchers the opportunity to see... |

They're not exactly 3D movies of molecules dancing, but the new 3D images of the nanoworld are being created starting from regular 2D pictures taken by the best microscopes. Researchers created a new imaging technique that transforms still two-dimensional pictures of nanoscale structures, several billionths of ... |

A new radical approach to nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) uses a microscopic detector to severely decrease the amount of proteins required to measure molecular structures and could eventually produce a dramatic decrease in size of the existing devices.Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a physical phenomenon based ... |

Professor Marija Drndic and graduate student Michael Fischbein, from the University of Pennsylvania, have used an electron beam to hand-make nanoscale structures and devices like nanodisks, nanorings, nanowires, nanoholes and multi-terminal nano-transistors, from very thin metal sheets.The new technique is a breakth... |

A new system for manipulating and accurately positioning individual nanowires on semiconductor wafers has been developed by researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Nanowires can be defined as structures that have a lateral size constrained to tens of nanometers or less and an uncons... |

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), formerly referred to as magnetic resonance tomography (MRT) or, in chemistry, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), is a non-invasive method used to render images of the inside of an object. It is primarily used in medical imaging to demonstrate pathological or other physiological alter... |

I'm sure you remember "What about Bob?", a movie in which Bill Murray plays a neurotic New Yorker struggling with a whirlwind of paralyzing phobias. If you're that kind of germ freak, you might hail the USB Digital Microscope as the best since the personalized napkins hit the shops. Forget the "Germ Freak&... |
