Certification of Network Quantum Sensing

The distribution of quantum sensors on quantum networks is a key enabler of quantum technologies in interferometry, gravimetry, timekeeping, biological monitoring, and beyond. Yet, guaranteeing the security of these distributed sensors over noisy, insecure networks remains a formidable challenge...

Semi-Fragile Watermarking of Remote Sensing Images Using DWT, Vector Quantization and Automatic Tiling

A semi-fragile watermarking scheme for multiple band images is presented in this article. We propose to embed a mark into remote sensing images applying a tree-structured vector quantization approach to the pixel signatures instead of processing each band separately. The signature of the...

Cardiac Biometric

MIT Technology Review is reporting about an infrared laser device that can identify people by their unique cardiac signature at a distance: A new device, developed for the Pentagon after US Special Forces requested it, can identify people without seeing their face: instead it detects their unique...
