• The drones of oil

  Geologists have long used seismology on the bottom of the ocean or have been throwing dynamite from snowmobiles when they look for oil. But now researchers at Centre for integrated petroleum research (CIPR), a joint venture between the University of Bergen (UiB) and Uni Research, have found a new pr more

• CSEM SA leads a European consortium in revolutionizing infrared chemical sensing
  

  The European Union has awarded a grant of 2.8 million Euro to the project PLAISIR (Plasmonic Innovative Sensing in the Infrared) which started 1st January 2010 and will run for three years. The goals of the project are to create ultra-sensitive chemical sensors and smarter, cheaper infrared (IR) pho more

• Tiny sensors tucked into cell phones could map airborne toxins in real time

  A tiny silicon chip that works a bit like a nose may one day detect dangerous airborne chemicals and alert emergency responders through the cell phone network. If embedded in many cell phones, its developers say, the new type of sensor could map the location and extent of hazards like gas leaks or more

• Quality control of colorimetrically stained gels and blots
  

  In the pharmaceutical and food industry, using a scanner-based system is more recommended than using a camera-based system for the acquisition, documentation and analysis of colorimetrically stained gels, blots and TLC samples. The combination of a scanner with a suitable control and analysis software is decisively for completely meeting GxP guidelines more

• Sniffing Out the Secrets of Social Behavior
  

  In his novel "Perfume - the Story of a Murderer", Patrick Süskind managed to put the power of odors into words better than anyone before him. It may be a fascinating idea, but no one will ever be able to create the perfect fragrance that makes a person irresistibly attractive. In the animal world, on the other hand, olfactory signals are an essential element of social communication. Yet we are only just beginning to understand the complexities and functional differences of the sense of smell in mammals. Professor Marc Spehr is leading the Department of Chemosensation at RWTH Aachen University since 2009, where he is conducting research on the neuronal mechanisms of olfactory perception and signal processing using the mouse model. In his experiments, he and his team are trying to find out how substances for social interaction are perceived and how this perception generates a specific type of behavior more

• Particle Analysis: Quality Control of Catalysts with Digital Image Processing
  

  Catalysts are widely used as an important auxiliary material in the chemical and petrochemical industry. They are able to accelerate chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy, i.e. they change reaction kinetics. Thus, using catalysts in industrial processes has the advantage of higher productivity combined with less energy consumption. more

• A Novel Application of Infrared Imaging for the Diagnosis of Death by Fire

  Abstract This paper demonstrates a novel and simple technique for the diagnosis of death by fire using a digital infrared (IR) camera system. At autopsy, the inhalation of soot by a fire victim is a definite indicator proving a vital reaction during the fire. However, there can be difficulties i more

• Hybrid retinal image registration using phase correlation

  Abstract: This paper deals with registration of retinal images, which were taken by high-resolution digital colour fundus cameras. The proposed method describes successful application of phase correlation method. It combines several basic steps — global correction of shift, rotation and scali more

• Sensors, Vol. 13, Pages 6254-6271: Development and Testing of a Decision Making Based Method to Adjust Automatically the Harrowing Intensity

  Harrowing is often used to reduce weed competition, generally using a constant intensity across a whole field. The efficacy of weed harrowing in wheat and barley can be optimized, if site-specific conditions of soil, weed infestation and crop growth stage are taken into account. This study aimed to more
