A study published Monday in the journal Nature Cities found when retroreflective material was installed on buildings, it decreased the surface temperature of those buildings by up to 36 degrees ...

1), and used microscopic retroreflective markers attached to the dragonfly, along with motion-capture techniques, to determine what the dragonfly saw and how its body moved during flight.

Our approach also supports retroreflective materials through a minor modification of the image formation model. The most remarkable property of equation (1) is the fact that a change of variables ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — A thin film that reflects light in intriguing ways could be used to make road signs that shine brightly and change color at night, according to a study published on Aug. 9 in Science ...

Liquid-based retroreflective coatings are commonly used to increase visibility of pavement markings and street signs. PPG’s Envirocron LUM coating is the first ever retroreflective powder ...

However, there are times when neither sensor will work. Fortunately, a third option does exist: the retroreflective ultrasonic sensor. Traditional ultrasonic sensor designs determine sensor-to ...

This article compares three types of photoelectric sensors—through-beam, retroreflective and diffused—used in industrial applications to detect object presence. Simply put, sensors are the ...

The Eko shades, as they’re called, are rimmed with a type of retroreflective material that bounces light back to exactly where it came from. Most surfaces reflect light by diffusing or ...

It can be fluorescent. For night work flaggers must wear a "retroreflective" vest, shirt or jacket that reflects back a high percentage of headlight beams. The retroreflective material must be ...
