Previous research found that the shark has light-producing cells called photophores in its belly, and it uses this light to camouflage itself.
Most existing DNA sequencers (including the 454 machine) do their reading by attaching light-producing molecules to DNA, taking pictures and analyzing the resulting image.
The average Aequoria Victoria is three to four inches wide and shaped like an umbrella, with 100 light-producing organs the size of poppy seeds spaced on its outer rim.
There has been a lot of excitement to be a part of this next phase in photography and start producing light field pictures in Australia.
ENGADGET: Lytro light-field camera hitting Amazon, Target and Best Buy sites next month
Sometimes, these rotations bring big payoffs, such as when 3M realized that the problem of laptop battery life was really a problem of energy used up too quickly for illuminating the screen. 3M researchers applied their knowledge of see-through adhesives to create an optical film that focuses light outward, producing a screen that was 40% more efficient.
For maximum runtime the switch is held down for ten seconds, activating the light in dim mode and producing a mild 1.3 lumens of light with an extreme runtime of 480 hours.

Direct green lasers are capable of producing green light natively, greatly simplifying laser design and manufacturing processes.
In addition to Sense8, Motion Picture Capital is producing The Flickering Light, which begins filming in Berlin later this year.

The mirrors reflect light into the etched glass, producing a greenish, satiny wall surface.
Dozens of reports have attempted to shed light on the display Apple is producing.
FORBES: Apple Testing Large-Screen High-Resolution TV Concept
Operators can also hold the switch down to run the flashlight in low mode, producing a 50 lumen light beam and a longer 12 hour runtime.

In a process called LED photomodulation, the light stimulates the production of cell-producing proteins under the skin's surface.
In the top diagram the solar panel is completely exposed to a light source 1804 and all six electrode quadrants 1802 are producing electricity more or less equally.

It will be the first on the market that reaches that level of efficiency and functions across a normal range of temperatures and is capable of consistently producing the same amount of warm white colored light as comparable fluorescent tubes.
Nader Ardalan, an architecture reserach fellow at Harvard University, says people in the oil-producing world want to be considered in a different light.
By continuing the national program developed for model year 2012-2016 vehicles, EPA and DOT have designed a proposal that allows manufacturers to keep producing a single, national fleet of passenger cars and light trucks that satisfies all federal and California requirements, while ensuring that consumers enjoy a full range of vehicle choices.

Light striking this detector liberates electrons from some of the silicon atoms, producing an electrical signal that is converted by the chip's electronics into a picture.
But instead of producing an electrical signal when it is tickled, the optical nose sneezes light.
In the current drive to create more homes, Riba president Angela Brady warns against builders producing "another generation of poor quality homes without adequate space and natural light".
Previous on-chip nanofocusing devices were only able to focus light into a narrow line, making them inefficient, whereas Caltech's contraption can be focused in three dimensions, producing a point a few nanometers across, and using half of the light that's sent through.
But now designers are producing chips with features just 0.18 microns wide, and few kinds of light have waves thin enough to etch features that small.

In light of that increased value, we decided to investigate which college football champions have best met those heightened expectations by producing NFL-ready prospects.
