The method involves stitching together many thin “slices” of light reflecting off an object.

Every generation grows up with starships that jump across galaxies in a heartbeat, but the real universe is far less forgiving than the screen. The same physics that lets GPS satellites work and ...

If there is an absolute law in the universe, it’s that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. For science-fiction enthusiasts, that’s a bit depressing. Space is big, and while the speed of ...

For the first time in history, scientists have succeeded in visually capturing the speed of light. Through an innovative use of high-speed photography and lasers, researchers have managed to ...

The speed of light has been one of science’s most trusted markers of stability. For more than a century, the idea that light moves through space at a constant speed has supported some of physics’ most ...

Researchers have demonstrated single-shot tensor computing at the speed of light – a remarkable step towards next-generation Artificial General Intelligence hardware powered by optical computation ...

Look inside a science fiction computer, and you’ll probably see tubes and cubes that emit light. Of course, it’s for effect, but the truth is, people do think light computing may be the final frontier ...
