Frequency-Selective Smart Lens for Integrated Signal Processing

This innovative prototype redefines the capabilities of conventional optics by merging focusing and signal processing into a single, compact component. Unlike standard lenses, this smart lens performs real-time frequency demultiplexing, spatially separating incoming signals and directing them to distinct focal points based on their frequency. This dual-functionality eliminates the need for additional filtering hardware, offering a streamlined solution for next-generation telecommunications and sensing.
