The total amount of data generated worldwide is expected to reach 175 ZB (Zettabytes; 1 ZB equals 1 billion Terabytes) by 2025. If 175 ZB were stored on Blu-ray disks, the disk stack would be 23 times ...

(Nanowerk News) The total amount of data generated worldwide is expected to reach 175 ZB (Zettabytes; 1 ZB equals 1 billion Terabytes) by 2025. If 175 ZB were stored on Blu-ray disks, the disk stack ...

A new lens-free imaging system uses software to see finer details from farther away than optical systems ever could before.

The double-slit experiment, first performed by [Thomas Young] in 1801 provided the first definitive proof of the dual wave-particle nature of photons. A similar experiment can be performed that shows ...

Spatially incoherent diffractive optical processors can handle data beyond non-negative values, potentially making them valuable in diverse scenarios, such as visual encryption and autonomous vehicle ...
