The high-speed camera allows a fusion energy research team to “freeze the behaviour” of fast-moving plasma jets Specialised Imaging’s SIMD32 ultra-high-speed camera is capable of reaching speeds of up to 1billion frames per second, says the company (Image: Specialised Imaging) Join 10,000+ vision…
What happens when additive manufacturing meets target fabrication engineering? An impossibly small, sub-millimeter scale cone that can be manufactured 10 times faster than before, enabling new target configurations for experiments at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL)'s National Ignition Facility (NIF).
Zone Laser Tag has updated its Helios3 system, adding more colours and improved notifications. The update, which is available now and free for all operators via the Zone Laser support portal, adds a number of new features designed to improve the…
The partnership will integrate Safran Electronics & Defense's optronic sights into the British defense group's naval and land-based weapons systems. Published on 11/04/2026 at 10:44 am EST Safran: A sell-off worth buying into October 23, 2026 at 08:32 am EDT Safran in the stratosphere, but perhaps…
Unmanned airspace The FASTLIGHT HELD (High Energy Laser Drone) is mounted on an all-terrain uncrewed ground platform and uses a laser to neutralise drones by targeting critical structural components. The system detects, tracks and identifies targets before directing the laser…
Leonardo DRS will supply electrical power and thermal management subsystems for the E-HEL (Enduring-High Energy Laser) system. As part of the E-HEL (Enduring-High Energy Laser) programme, the US Army has selected the LOCUST X3 system from AeroVironment Inc. The company subsequently…
Fluid Power & Motion Control Controlling the laser allows researchers to tune the antenna's length and frequency. A contactless capacitor feeds radio signals into the plasma beam without physical contact. Researchers have demonstrated a technique that uses a laser to produce…
Raytheon is developing a new type of processor that could help US military systems recognize incoming threats faster. The technology uses light to handle data processing, potentially removing a major bottleneck in today’s electronic systems. Raytheon’s proposed architecture aims to…
AeroVironment (AV) has selected Leonardo DRS to provide rugged integration expertise for the US Army’s Enduring-High Energy Laser (E-HEL) production programme. AV received the US Army contract award for the E-HEL programme in September. DRS will provide power management and…
In September 2026, the U.S. Army announced its award to AV for the E-HEL program, describing it as the service’s first production contract for a high-energy laser weapon system. The Army said E-HEL is intended to give soldiers a scalable, affordable directed-energy…
