An established tool for the authentication and conservation of fine art paintings, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) typically requires the removal of small sample sections for analysis.

A research team revealed how deeply drone-mounted optical sensors can detect maize canopy layers using UAV hyperspectral data ...

In this interview, Sue Berets, the Applications Scientist at Harrick Scientific, talks to AZoM about specular reflectance measurements and the difference between absolute and relative. Please tell us ...

Reflectance Medical, its device uses light -- specifically, near infrared spectroscopy -- to read patients’ blood chemistry without cutting into them, will help save the lives of soldiers wounded in ...

An image printed on reflectance paper responds to the direction from which it is illuminated. The reflectance paper is covered with dimples that reflect light from different directions. See video ...

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) scientists are collaborating with researchers at UT San Antonio to study how space weathering can alter the lunar surface materials to help interpret regional and ...

Forest reflectance models are able to contribute to the interpretation of satellite images over forested areas. A multipurpose forest reflectance model, its basic ideas, model input and output options ...
