The technology what makes the mobile telephones 3D-scanners is actually the same, what is used to make 3D maps of Earth and other planets. In that technology satellites use radars and meters range between satellite and planet, what makes possible to make those maps, and modern computers and radars allow to make high-resolution 3D-maps, what can be zoom in very good accuracy.


By using VLF or ELF  (Very or Extra Long Frequency) radars those satellites can make 3D maps from the ocean floor from the orbital trajectory. Same way ships can make 3D maps from the ocean floor, by using sonar systems. Also, Lidar or laser radars can be used in those mapping operations. Blue-green laser radars can scan very deep areas of the oceans, and that equipment can also meter the altitude and length of the waves.


But now I missed the thing, what I suppose to write. If the mobile telephones would be connected to drone-helicopters, and they could use enough sharp GPS-system, they could be used to scan very large areas. Of course, the system must know only the distance between the target and phone, and GPS is the very good tool to check the position of the telephone. But it could also work with triangle metering. The changes between the position of the drone and perfect circle can be the addition or subtract from the perfect circle.


That equipment works like satellites, but they are much smaller. And they can scan even entire buildings or ships by using their SONARS. So this might be new role fort smart telephones, what can now use in many things. And if that telephone would cover with waterproof cores and underwater drones it can use to scan entire fish, atolls or shipwrecks. Also, intelligence services can use those things to make 3D-models of submarines. Only thing what is necessary is that SONAR signal must pass the core.

MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible

   "This chip-based "tractor-beam," which uses an intensely focused beam of light to capture and manipulate biological particles without damaging the cells, could help biologists study the mechanisms of diseases."(Interesting Engineering, MIT’s Star Wars-inspired ‘tractor beam’ uses light to capture, manipulate cells) MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible. The tractor beam just hovers the nanoparticle in air or medium, and then the laser or some other electromagnetic system transports oscillation into those particles. The ability to make cells and other particles hover in the system makes it possible to create particles whose energy level or resonance frequencies are accurately calculated things.  That thing makes it possible to create things that transmit wave movement accurately and cleanly. This is one version of the use of a tractor beam. Modern tractor beams are like acoustic tweezers where sound waves lock the object in its cr

The new observations tell that the thunderstorms form gamma-rays. That could make gamma-ray lasers possible.

That could make gamma-ray lasers possible. The process has been observed by the NASA (Lockheed) ER-2 research plane, which is a modified U-2 spy plane. The gamma-ray formation in thunderstorms. Where lightning and electric fields release electrons that impact the air molecules and water droplets is an interesting thing. That thing opens the route to solving many mysteries.  "The general physics behind how thunderstorms create high-energy flashes of gamma radiation is not a mystery. As thunderstorms develop, swirling drafts drive water droplets, hail, and ice into a mixture that creates an electric charge much like rubbing a balloon on your shirt. Pos

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th
