Nanostructured flat lens uses machine learning to ‘see’ more clearly, while using less power
A front-end lens, or meta-imager, created at Vanderbilt University can potentially replace traditional imaging optics in machine-vision applications, producing images at higher speed and using less power. Read MoreJan 5, 2024

Nanostructured flat lens uses machine learning to ‘see’ more clearly, while using less power
A front-end lens, or meta-imager (see below), created at Vanderbilt University can potentially replace traditional imaging optics in machine-vision applications, producing images at higher speed and using less power. The nanostructuring of lens material into a meta-imager filter reduces the typically thick optical lens and enables front-end processing that encodes information more efficiently. The imagers...
