New cameras are shooting through walls

Physicists at the Massachussetts Institute have successfully researched wall-mounted cameras.

The latest success of US scientists will cause a real shock. They invented a femtosecond transmission system.

Ramesh Paskhar of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) led the Camera Culture project, successfully investigating the new camera. " Our invention allows the beam to pass through the dividers. Like rays, but not rays . "

The nature of the system is that it emits high intensity light radiation from a femtosecond laser generator. Very short wavelength light that only lasts 1/10 ¹⁵ seconds. It will be reflected back and hit the object to be captured. If there are other objects in the back of the scene, the light will reflect them and return to the sensor. In software installed software is complex algorithms, can immediately calculate the time and distance of each pixel (pixel) reflex. The obtained data will be used to reproduce the captured scene.

At present, the ' rhythmic ' shooting system is new at the initial stage of research and testing. Cameras are difficult to cover because of the wide-angle view with many objects. But in a few years this can be overcome to put into production.

The scope of this invention is varied. Not only are the paparazzi or Don Juan peachers interested but it is also very convenient for emergency surgery can not bring medical equipment to shoot because the victim was crushed under a heavy load. (for example, in earthquakes) or during a medical examination where medical equipment is impotent.

In addition, it will be used in the robotics industry, which makes it easier for controllers to distinguish between different environments.
