An Analysis of Optical Contributions to a Photo-Sensor's Ballistic Fingerprints
Lens aberrations have previously been used to determine the provenance of an image. However, this is not necessarily unique to an image sensor, as lens systems are often interchanged. Photo-response non-uniformity noise was proposed in 2005 by Luk\'a\v{s}

The optical slit sensor as a standard sensor for spacecraft attitude determination [PDF]
The basic concept of an optical slit sensor as a standard altitude sensor is considered for any missions using a spinning spacecraft or where rotating sensors or mirrors could be used.

1700 deg C optical temperature sensor [PDF]
A new gas temperature sensor was developed that shows promise of sufficient ruggedness to be useful as a gas turbine temperature sensor. The sensor is in the form of a single-crystal aluminum oxide ceramic, ground to a cone shape and given an emissive ...

Estimating Sensor Motion from Wide-Field Optical Flow on a Log-Dipolar Sensor [PDF]
Log-polar image architectures, motivated by the structure of the human visual field, have long been investigated in computer vision for use in estimating motion parameters from an optical flow vector field. Practical problems with this approach have been:

Recent Advances in Fiber-Optic Sensors for the Detection of Inorganic Acidic Gases
An acidic gas is an important basic chemical raw material used for synthesizing fertilizers, insecticides, explosives, dyes, and salts. Alternatively, inorganic acidic gases that leak into the air have harmful effects on the human health, infrastructure,
