- New camera detects objects under clothes
- Everyone's excited about the new British camera that can image objects hidden under clothes. The T5000 camera, created by ThruVision, uses "passive imaging technology" to identify objects by the natural electromagnetic rays they emit, Reuters says. It can detect images up to 80 feet away, even when people...

- A super-resolution x-ray microscope
- Swiss researchers have developed a very-high-resolution x-ray microscope. Their approach combines two well-known microscopy techniques, coherent diffractive imaging CDI and scanning transmission x-ray microscopy STXM. As a result, the new system offers both the high penetration power of x-rays and high spatial resolution. This method will allow other scientists to...

- Microwaves from silicon chips?
- X-rays are widely used for medical imaging and security, but they still are dangerous. Would it be possible to replace X-rays by an imaging technology based on microwave radiation? Until now, it was not feasible because portable devices were not powerful enough. Now, two U.S. scientists have found how to...
