Autonomous vehicles must be able to recognize obstacles and other hazards – and apply the brakes in an emergency. Such a vehicle could be equipped with a new microscanner mirror from the Fraunhofer ...

To develop a rapid method of quantifying immunohistochemical information in tissue sections, we tested a confocal laser fluorescence microscanner initially designed for DNA microarray analysis. This ...

In autonomous vehicles, it is advanced technology that takes the wheel, allowing passengers to sit back and enjoy the ride. Yet such systems have to meet stringent safety standards. For example, an ...

Abstract: This paper describes a microscanner actuated by self-aligned electrostatic vertical combdrives. A tilt motion without unwanted vertical or lateral piston motions of a mirror, namely, a ...

Abstract: In this article, we present a method to estimate high-frequency rotary motion of a highly compact electrostatic microscanner using the same electrodes for both actuation and sensing. The ...
