… SDSU imaging engineers testing prototype calibration device Imaging engineers at South Dakota State University are testing a prototype device that may soon be used to calibrate sensors on Earth-imaging satellites, according to Larry Leigh, director of the SDSU Image Processing Laboratory. The partnership with Labsphere, a New Hampshire-based electro-optics company, will also help Leigh and his team conduct research to validate new remote sensing products. SDSU Image Processing Lab Director Larry Leigh and research associate Pedro … to know how well the sensors and algorithms are doing that,” said Leigh, noting lab clients, such the U.S. Geological Survey, are interested in utilizing this capability. “That will open new potential avenues for calibration and validation of another level of products that the industry wants.” About Labsphere Labsphere, Inc. is headquartered in New Hampshire, US, …

… University researchers will develop innovative techniques to repair and construct bridges and roadways through a new U.S. Department of Transportation-funded research center, according to Mostafa Tazarv, assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering. SDSU is part of a consortium of 11 universities working to improve the durability and extend the life … will be on developing techniques to repair and replace bridges, roads and even pipelines,” said Tazarv. His research examines ways to enhance the performance of bridges and bridge components by using innovative materials that reduce damage due to severe events, such as earthquakes and flooding. A 2016 American Society of Civil Engineers Infrastructure assessment reported that more than 9% of the nation’s bridges are …
