SCIENTISTS INVENT CAMERA THAT CAN SEE THROUGH ALMOST ANYTHING
futurism.com ^

Posted on 11/19/2021 10:18:29 AM PST by BenLurkin

The camera relies on a light capture system called “synthetic wavelength holography,” according to a press release from Northwestern Engineering. It works by scattering laser light onto hidden objects, then bouncing it back to the camera, where an AI reconstructs the signals to show the hidden object.

A paper of the researchers’ findings has been published in Nature. Since the holography method allows the scientists to see fast-moving objects such as cars driving around corners, or even a heart beating through a person’s chest, it could be used in early-warning navigation systems for automobiles or for non-invasive medical imaging.

The technology is still in its prototype stage. However, early results show promise — and might help prevent car accidents in the future as self-driving vehicles become more and more prominent.

“So,x-ray glasses were a sham?”

No. It’s just that those glasses was the old technology, early version prototypes and as a result could be buggy.

Watch for the government to seize the prototype and patents and then make them top secret.

If it can see through everything, how does it stop seeing through things?

Can it see through a car body? ...waiting for it to be used in illegal search & seizures. I support LEO’s but I’ve always felt a dog was a subjective search, easily manipulated by its handler - unaccountable in court. Now, if you can search a vehicle without entering it, you know it’ll be used.

Years ago, in college, our Physics professor told us about a device he had that could see through walls.

He called it a “window”.

Obviously whoever wrote this breakthrough article hasn't walked through an airport scanner in the past decade.

My wife asks why the female security guards ask me to walk through it multiple times. LOL
