New OLED for compact, lightweight night vision

It converts near infrared light into visible light

University of Michigan researchers have developed a new type of OLED (organic light emitting diode) that has the potential to replace bulky night vision goggles with lightweight glasses, offering a more affordable and practical solution for extended use. Additionally, the OLEDs exhibit a memory effect, paving the way for computer vision systems capable of both sensing and interpreting incoming light signals and images.
