In this case the operator would wear goggles that convert infra-red light into an image that the eye can perceive.
Direct Drive Image Light Amplifier, while DLP stands for Digital Light Processing.
To combat variable ambient light conditions that can affect image visibility, manufacturers have the option of integrating ambient light sensor readings into the CAIC and LABB algorithms.

Each mirror acts as a beam-steering device, controlling whether a single picture element (pixel) in the image is light or dark.
In a process similar to printing a photograph, engineers beam high-powered light through a masklike image of the chip, thus creating a duplicate on a silicon wafer.
Nor is standard photographic equipment always sufficient, since urban light pollution can wreck an image of a supernova.
The Light Touch can turn that image into a touch-screen that you can type on or swipe through with the help of a holographic laser projection and infrared sensor at the bottom of the device.

Mr Kennedy issued a stark warning to delegates at the Brighton conference to show responsibility when discussing matters that could damage the party's image in the light of increased media attention, including a tabled debate on scrapping the monarchy.
It also uses an accelerometer and light sensors to snap an image when a person enters a new environment, and an infrared sensor to take one when it detects the body heat of a person in front of the wearer.
The light does not form an image of the reacting molecules, but its interaction with those molecules specifically, which frequencies are absorbed, and how strongly allows Dr Zewail and his followers to work out how the molecules distort and reorganise themselves during the course of a reaction.
"Einstein's theory of general relativity tells us that mass bends space and time, so when light comes toward us through the Universe, if it passes some dark matter, its light gets bent and the image we see gets bent and distorted, " Dr Heymans told the meeting.
In a process similar to printing a photograph, engineers beam high-powered light through a mask-like image of the chip, creating a duplicate on a silicon wafer.
At the heart of the new Everio line is a new 2.5-megapixel Back-Illuminated CMOS image sensor that with 2 million effective pixels delivers an outstanding Full HD image and improved low light performance for every model in the 100, 300 and 500 series.

We're looking at a revamped but still tiny CX sensor, this time with the resolution bumped up to 14 megapixels (instead of 10) -- a move that likely won't do much for the camera's overall image quality or low light performance relative to APS-C or Micro Four Thirds shooters.

Film stocks were fairly insensitive in the silent period, and enormous amounts of light were needed to get a proper image.
This lets a few light waves through to help focus the image, even though they are invisible on the final product.
Under the circumstances, the image will never see the light of day again, if the company has anything to say about it.
Because the image was taken in infrared light, it cuts through much of the Milky Way's obscuring dust, allowing astronomers to observe details of the galactic center.
By implanting a device on the retina that receives a signal from the eyeglass-mounted camera, those cells can be stimulated as if receiving light, causing them to transmit an image to the brain.
At sunset, the sun appears red (the blue light has been scattered out of that image, too), so the cells of the eye that detect red are overloaded and incapable of registering weaker red signals.
Accordingly, models have been developed with Sony's unique "RGBW Coding" function, which facilitates low noise, high quality image capture even in low light condition, and the proprietary "HDR (High Dynamic Range) Movie" function, which achieves brilliant color even when taking pictures against bright light.

Once the light enters the ruby, its speed is slowed down to around the speed of sound (approximately 741mph) and the spinning motion of the rod drags the light with it, resulting in the image being rotated by almost five degrees: large enough to see with the naked eye.
This provides us with the first real image of a planet situated 25 light years from Earth.
This new camcorder features an enhanced HD CMOS PRO Image Sensor, improving low-light performance by 20% over its predecessor.

The 16.3-megapixel BSI CMOS sensor and brighter F2.5 lens help deliver top-notch image quality even in low-light situations without the typical bleaching effect of artificial light.
The new lineup also offers a 3.28 Megapixel Full HD CMOS Image Sensor, an improved image stabilization system and a new DIGIC DV IV Image Processor for impressive low-light performance.

After what felt like an eternity waiting, the little red light on the camera flickered, indicating that the image was ready to view.
In a 35-nanosecond burst of laser light, 4.3 megabytes of a color image are burned on a photosensitive DuPont polymer film, rearranging the chemistry into a zebra-striped interference pattern.
It's sweet and simple: the camera captures the reflection of light on the user's eye, and image processing technology then calculates the user's viewing angle to allow for hands-free navigation on-screen.
