Real time and high-precision optical flow estimation is crucial for analyzing dynamic scenes in computer vision. Although traditional methods are fundamental, they often encounter issues with computation and accuracy, especially when executed on edge devices. The emergence of deep learning has driven the development of this field, providing higher accuracy, but at the cost of sacrificing computati...

Recently, Dong Yibo, from the Photonic Chip Research Institute of Shanghai University of Technology, published his research findings titled "Nanoprinted Diffractive Layer Integrated Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Vortex Lasers with Scalable Topological Charge" as the first author in the internationally renowned journal Nano Letters.This achievement was jointly completed by the team of academicia...

Researchers at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland have manufactured the first organic semiconductor laser to operate without the need for a separate light source - which has proven to be extremely challenging. The new all electric driven laser is more compact than previous devices and operates in the visible light region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Therefore, its developers stated that...

A game museum has 3D printed a replica of a historic arcade computer space. The arcade museum in Stroud, Gloucestershire lacks the first commercial arcade video game. They collaborated with Heber company to create a real replica. Neil Thomas, the director of the arcade museum, said that because it is a replica, not an original, they are not "afraid" of letting people play with it.A spokesperson...

Canada's Xanadu Quantum Technologies has developed the world's first scalable optical quantum computer prototype. The company published an article in the latest issue of Nature detailing its design and construction process, and demonstrating how the prototype can be flexibly scaled up to the required scale. This breakthrough lays an important foundation for the development of large-scale quantum c...
