The technology uses “metasurface-based upconversion, in which photons pass through a resonant metasurface.” This approach increases the energy of photons without first converting them into electrons, thus eliminating the need for heavy equipment and powerful cooling. As a result, the night vision lens weighs less than a gram and can be integrated into everyday glasses.
Lead researcher Dragomir Neshev emphasized the role of “mini-technology” in the future, noting the potential impact of this technology on various industries.
