A new application of laser technology known as two-way dual-comb ranging (TWDCR) has demonstrated with unprecedented ...

A new technique involving lasers can measure long distances more precisely than ever, which could be useful for space ...

It would be impossible to draw a life-size map and we need to know the scale to work out distances. Once the scale of the map is known, it is possible to measure the distance between two points.

ROHM Semiconductor today announced a new high output laser diode - RLD8BQAB3 - for use in ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance ...

A team of physicists and engineers at China's Hefei National Laboratory has succeeded in conducting the first instance of precise absolute distance measurement over a path exceeding 100 km.

One critical challenge for engineers is to measure distances with ever greater accuracy. In recent years, this has become possible with nanometer resolution over distances of a few meters. That means ...

Rohm’s patented technology delivers narrow laser emission widths, supporting high-accuracy, long-distance lidar systems.

Go to maps.google.com. 2. Right-click the starting point and select "Measure distance." The total distance will appear on both the black line that joins each point, as well as in the pop-up box at ...

Google Earth allows you to measure the distance between two points on the Earth, as well as the circumference of a circular section of the ground - or even the elevation of a mountain. 2.
