Here are some post-show thoughts about the International Laser Technology Congress (AKL '24) held April 17-19.
In this episode: a new LiDAR system boosts airborne apps, an optic-involved setup eyes concrete structures, and laser-driven fusion could lead to cleaner energy sources.
A metafluid with tunable optical properties, compressibility, viscosity, and the ability to transition between a Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid? Yes, really.

The program recognizes excellence in the optics and photonics community. If your product is original, innovative, saves your client money, is more efficient than products currently available, and has a novel approach, complete your nomination today.

Join us May 16th at 11 a.m. ET to learn how to conceptualize and investigate optical short-reach transmission systems based on recommendations from standardization committees or multi-source agreements (MSAs) using professional simulation software.
Metrology (advanced manufacturing) and surveillance and navigation (defense, security, and transportation) had the most merger and acquisition activity this quarter.
Researchers will detail upcoming efforts photonic, quantum, and organic circuits; sustainable microsystem manufacturing; and commercial scaling.
Designed by researchers at ETH Zurich, the excavator is equipped with a LiDAR scanner, LiDAR sensors, and RGB camera.
