The Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) is working with Boulder-based company 3D at Depth, which develops subsea optical mapping equipment, on a next-generation lidar system capable of ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2023.220016 discusses ocean lidar remote sensing technology based on Brillouin scattering spectrum. The monitoring of marine ...

Imaging the structure of the deep seafloor is critical to understanding the biology and ecology of the largest living space on our planet. But to date, only about 20% of the ocean floor has been ...

Report Ocean published a new report on the global Light detection and ranging (LiDAR) market. The study includes an in-depth analysis of regional trends and market growth in North America, Europe, ...

NASA has announced that it has used a French space laser for a novel purpose. That purpose was to measure the massive migration of ocean animals. The space-based laser that the team used is the ...

Brillouin lidar techniques harness the inelastic scattering of light – known as Brillouin scattering – within seawater to derive key physical parameters, notably temperature and salinity. By analysing ...

U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) researchers from the Ocean and Atmospheric Science and Technology Directorate along with the Scientific Development Squadron (VXS) 1’s UV-18 Twin Otter (aircraft) ...

LiDAR, also known as Light Detection and Ranging, uses lasers to measure the distance, shape, and orientation of 3D objects. LiDAR is becoming increasingly common, appearing in devices like the iPhone ...

Every night, under the cover of darkness, near countless small sea creatures, such as squid and krill, swim from the ocean depths to near the surface to feed. This vast animal migration, the largest ...

While lidar has been around for years, it’s now more affordable and accessible than ever, so we’re seeing this technology show up on a variety of professional applications … and even in the smart home ...
