MIT Engineers Create Camera Lens That Focuses With No Moving Parts
February 26, 2021
Using physical glass elements for camera lenses has been at the core of imaging technology for centuries, but MIT engineers have now fabricated a new “metalens” that can focus on objects at multiple depths without changing its physical position or shape.
This new lens is not made out of solid glass, but transparent “phase-changing” material that can rearrange its atomic structure when…
