Time-gating technique sees through deep tissue, dense fog, and other obstacles

University of Rochester researchers have developed a low-cost imaging system using time-gating technology to see through fog and deep tissue. The system uses inexpensive silicon detectors to convert near-infrared light into visible images.
Why it matters
This innovation could significantly lower the cost of medical diagnostics and improve safety for autonomous vehicle navigation.
