No camera? No problem: US engineers bend quantum rules to create 3D holograms

SMRTR summary

Brown University engineers developed a groundbreaking quantum imaging technique that produces detailed 3D holograms without infrared cameras. By pairing infrared and visible light photons entangled at the quantum level, they captured both intensity and phase of light waves. This method overcomes phase wrapping, allowing for accurate depth measurements and high-quality 3D images of microscopic objects using indirect photons.
