Adaptive metalens maintains focus with artificial muscle / Le lenti di metallo adattative risultano utili con i muscoli artificiali Segnalato dal Dott. Giuseppe Cotellessa / Reported by Dr. Giuseppe Cotellessa Silicon metalens mounted on a transparent, stretchy polymer film (Harvard SEAS) / Lente di metallo in silicio montato su un film polimerico trasparente ed elastico Artificial muscle and metalens technology have been combined to create a tuneable metalens that can change its focus in real time. Developed by researchers at the Harvard John A Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS), the adaptive metalens is said to simultaneously control three of the major contributors to blurry images, namely focus, astigmatism, and image shift. The research is published in Science Advances . “This research combines breakthroughs in artificial muscle technology with metalens technology to create a tuneable metalens that can change its focus in real time, just
