    Lens free microscopy Microscopy whether electron microscopy or with visible light requires lenses. For electron microscopy, lenses incur significant design challenges and add aberrations. A startup in UK uses technology invented by Professor John Rodenberg to remove lenses altogether and compute the image from the diffraction pattern of the sample. This is similar to a…

    Super resolution microscopy One of the problems with Quantum dots and some fluorescent proteins/molecules is that they blink. And they all photo-bleach. Bayesian analysis of blinking and bleaching or 3B microscopy analyzes images using Hidden Markov Model (HMM) allows useful information to be extracted from the data. Dr Susan Cox has come up with unique…

    Start with the application: A set of headlights that can enable the driver to see through the falling rain. Typically, it is difficult to see through rain because water droplets reflect the light that is reflected back from the water droplet. However, rain is not constant and it should be possible to time the light…
