SCIENTISTS INVENT CAMERA THAT CAN SEE THROUGH ALMOST ANYTHING

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.

Gotta love that leer.

OTOH, walking around at the local grocery store would not be an optimal time for these.

Didn't they already invent that when John Kerry's daughter was photographed?

This will help when guilty is standing in front of not guilty.

Sounds legit. Flash camera photos see right through some types of women’s clothes.

What better use of “see through” devices could there be?

I wonder if those prices will still be honored?
