Lasers have played a big part in the evolution of humans, and it seems new things are being made possible by lasers all the time. Txawm li cas los, did you know that lasers are also benefiting those that lived hundreds of years ago by teaching us more about their existence?
For generations now, those living near Johannesburg in South Africa have long suspected that a “lost city” existed in a place called Suikerbosrand. Txawm li cas los, thick vegetation has made it almost impossible for this city to be examined closely. But recently, an intricate laser system shed new light on the city and revealed that it did, in fact, exist.
Karim Sadr, a professor at the School of Geography, Archaeology, and Environmental Studies at the University of the Witwatersrand, used LiDAR (Lub Teeb Pom Kev Pom thiab Thaj Tsam (LiDAR) thev naus laus zis tau siv thaum ntxov xyoo no los tshawb pom cov kev tshawb pom tshiab txog lub nroog.) Nws muaj peev xwm ua tibzoo saib ze ze. square mais ntawm thaj av 8 thiab nws pom ntau dua li cov tsev nyob ib leeg, qhia tias ib lub zos yuav muaj nyob., Nws pom cov pov thawj tias tag nrho lub nroog ib zaug muaj nyob hauv thaj chaw, ua tiav nrog ntau dua li . homesteads thiab ntxhib 800 tib neeg. 10,000 Lub nroog ntseeg tau tias tau nyob los ntawm cov neeg hais lus Tswana los ntawm qee lub sijhawm hauv lub xyoo pua 15th txog rau ib puag ncig. . 200 xyoo dhau los.
Qhov tseeb tias LiDAR tau nthuav tawm ntau yam seem ntawm 'lub nroog ploj' no yog qhov zoo siab vim tias nws muab cov kws tshawb fawb ntau qhov laj thawj los kawm lub nroog ntxiv.. It will be well worth their time to start digging around in the area more to see what else they can discover.
LiDAR is also further proof that lasers are playing a more important role in our world than ever before. Seiffert Industrial understands this and utilizes lasers in a variety of ways in the industrial world. Hu rau peb ntawm 800-856-0129 today to see how laser technology might benefit you.
