position of the represented real object on the street; for example,
a hidden street sign would appear as a holographic projection
relative to its actual position behind the obstruction, acting
as an alert mechanism.
The researchers hope to refine the system by personalizing
the layout of the head-up displays and have created an algorithm
capable of projecting several layers of different objects.
These layered holograms can be freely arranged in the driver's
vision space; for example, in the first layer, a traffic sign at a further
distance can be projected at a smaller size. In the second
layer, a warning sign at a closer distance can be displayed at a
larger size. This layering technique provides an augmented
reality experience and alerts the driver in a natural way. Each
individual may have different preferences for their display
options; for instance, the driver's vital health signs could be
projected in a desired location of the head-up display.
The researchers are now working to miniaturize the optical
components used in the holographic setup so they can fit
into a car.

new tool for medical professionals may help shed more light
on tumors in the body and how the brain operates.
Researchers created technology that uses optical imaging to better
help surgeons map out tumors in the body and help them
understand how certain diseases affect activity in the brain.

Light travels through tissue like gas from a leaky pipe diffuses to fill a room.
This allows illumination and interrogation of structures within the tissue.
Through modeling and inversion algorithms, the size, shape, and location
of tumors and blood vessels can be determined. (Image: Brian Bentz)
