Event-based imaging paper online

We are pleased to share our work on event-based imaging of levitated nanoparticles! We believe this is an exciting new technology to leverage in the study of levitated systems, particularly for the study of multiple particles. It’s particularly gratifying that this work involves three generations of Masters students, and well done to Yugang for doing the work in the lab to get the paper into a publishable form.
