<p>Emily Elert <a href="http://www.popsci.com/science/article/2013-02/holographic-imaging-system-could-let-firefighters-see-through-flames">reports</a> on a breakthrough in optic technology that would allow firefighters&#8217; infared cameras to see clear images of victims behind smoke and flames:</p>
<blockquote><p>[I]n the midst of a raging inferno, heat from the flames will overwhelm the camera&#8217;s sensors and obscure nearby objects. Researchers in Italy may have <a href="http://www.opticsinfobase.org/view_article.cfm?gotourl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eopticsinfobase%2Eorg%2FDirectPDFAccess%2F23508316-C0E5-401D-65222CDC1F1F32D6_249517%2Foe-21-5-5379%2Epdf%3Fda%3D1%26id%3D249517%26seq%3D0%26mobile%3Dno&amp;org=">found a solution</a>: a digital imaging system that captures infrared signals in 3-D and converts them to holographic video in real-time, thus allowing firefighters to distinguish flames from heat-emitting objects behind them.</p></blockquote>
