Laser camera: You don’t need to turn a corner to find love

    "You meet love around the corner", why do you need to turn a corner? Can you see her before you turn the corner? Scientists at the University of Bonn in Germany have recently developed a new camera that allows you to see what is on the other side without turning a corner. When working, this camera can shoot a laser and track its dispersion. Finally, by sorting out the reflected light, it uses a special algorithm to reconstruct the scene and convert this information into an image that humans can recognize.

    Of course, the biggest use of this camera is in the military, rescue and other fields where complex terrain is likely to be encountered. Although there are optical devices for observation now, the new technology is cheaper and can see more things through the continuous reflection of lasers.

    This technology is still in the early stages of development, and its shortcoming is that it can only see a rough outline. I believe that as the algorithm and technology continue to improve, this camera will present us with more realistic images.
