Article Abstract
Multispectral imaging (MSI) is widely used in terrestrial applications to help increase the discriminability between objects of interest. While MSI has shown potential for underwater geological and biological surveys, it is thus far rarely applied underwater. This is primarily due to the fact light propagation in water is subject to wavelength dependent attenuation and tough working conditions in the deep ocean. In this paper, a novel underwater MSI system based on a tunable light source is presented which employs a monochrome still image camera with flashing, pressure neutral color LEDs. Laboratory experiments and field tests were performed. Results from the lab experiments show an improvement of 76.66% on discriminating colors on a checkerboard by using the proposed imaging system over the use of an RGB camera. The field tests provided in situ MSI observations of pelagic fauna, and showed the first evidence that the system is capable of acquiring useful imagery under real marine conditions.

Hyperspectral data have been overshadowed by multispectral data for studying algal blooms for decades. However, newer hyperspectral missions, including the recent Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem (PACE) Ocean Color Instrument (OCI), are opening the doors to accessible hyperspectral data, at spatial and temporal resolutions comparable to ocean color and multispectral missions. Simulation studies can help to understand the potential of these hyperspectral sensors prior to launch and without extensive field data collection.

Background: Immunotherapy is a mainstay in the treatment of patients with advanced melanoma. Yet, resistance mechanisms exist, and tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs), particularly the M2-like phenotype, are associated with poorer outcomes, with CD206 serving as their specific marker. We present the first human SPECT/CT study to visualize CD206 + TAMs in patients undergoing immunotherapy and compare the findings to clinical outcomes (NCT04663126).

Salmonella, mainly associated with raw poultry, remains a major food safety concern as the number of illnesses have not reduced over the past decade warranting a need for convergent, disruptive approaches. In poultry processing plants, the USDA-FSIS implements a "zero visible fecal tolerance" policy on eviscerated broiler carcasses entering the chiller as a step to reduce the pathogen from cross contamination. The efficacy of multispectral fluorescence imaging technology to detect visible and invisible fecal matter from different sections of the gastrointestinal tract was assessed on 404 carcasses to enhance automation in processing plants.

Broadband anisotropic photodetectors show great promise for polarization-sensitive imaging and multispectral optoelectronic systems yet face critical challenges in material anisotropy modulation and broadband sensitivity. Weyl semimetals exhibit giant optical anisotropy and tunable heterojunction band alignment, enabling high-performance anisotropic photodetection. Herein, ultrabroadband PDs based on the NbNiTe (niobium nickel telluride), enabled by antenna integration and heterostructure engineering, achieve high sensitivity from visible to Terahertz (THz).

Background: Water and nitrogen are essential elements prone to deficiency during plant growth. Current water-fertilizer monitoring technologies are unable to meet the demands of large-scale cultivation. Near-ground remote sensing technology based on unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) multispectral image is widely used for crop growth monitoring and agricultural management and has proven to be effective for assessing water and nitrogen status.
