First Australian-Built Hyperspectral Imager in Orbit, crafted in the Braggs Building!
In 18 months, CSIRO and the University of Adelaide, including Craig Ingram, Joshua Pease, Eugene McNearney, Ass Prof Martin O'Connor, and Jared Waterman, designed and built CyanoSat, a compact hyperspectral imager in low-Earth orbit. Analyzing a broad spectrum, it identifies cyanobacteria for vital water quality assessment. The payload successfully generated its first image.
Conventional wisdom on tissue imaging turned on its head
An international team of experts has made a technological breakthrough for one of the most important forms of imaging: optical coherence tomography (OCT). They believe that selective collection of multiple scattered light may lead to improved image contrast at depth.
