China is set to add 30 million new V2X-enabled vehicles to the road every year by 2034, according to IDTechEx’s report, “Connected and Software-Defined Vehicles 2024-2034: Markets, Forecasts, Technologies,” as part of a wider global trend that will see V2X technology become the standard in most vehicles.

The world is undergoing a transformation due to artificial intelligence, from DeepMind's victory over Go world champion Lee Sedol in 2016, to the advanced predictive capabilities of OpenAI's ChatGPT.

Bright lights, bigger screens, IDTechEx explores micro-LED technology from smart gadgets to see-through displays.

The automotive industry is undergoing a significant transformation due to emerging megatrends such as autonomous driving, electric vehicles, connectivity, software-defined vehicles, and in-cabin monitoring.

Sodium-ion batteries are set to diversify energy storage thanks to improved cost, safety, sustainability, and performance.

Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) have made monumental progress in the passenger car market, becoming a standard drivetrain option.

Dr Xiaoxi He, Research Director at IDTechEx, talks about how MicroLED displays are the one innovation that shines brilliantly in the ever-evolving landscape of visual technologies.

The realm of display technology is undergoing a significant shift, as elucidated by Dr. Xiaoxi He, Research Director at IDTechEx, in the report "Micro-LED Displays 2024-2034: Technology, Commercialisation, Opportunity, Market and Players."

Flying cars might not yet be mainstream, but as developments in the electric and autonomous vehicle industries are making progress globally, the future of driving is set to look very different.

The road to fully autonomous vehicles is, by necessity, a long and winding one; systems that implement new technologies that increase the driving level of vehicles (driving levels being discussed further below) must be rigorously tested for safety and longevity before they can make it to vehicles that are bound for public streets.

The advancement of biotechnology is critical to expanding both the bioeconomy, where society uses renewable biological resources to create biobased products and the circular economy.

Can digital and/or high throughput manufacturing be applied to circuit boards? Can stretchable electronics be produced without sacrificing processing capabilities? Flexible hybrid electronics (FHE) is an emerging manufacturing methodology that aims to resolve both of these questions.

Since the introduction of artificial intelligence to the data centre, AI has been loath to leave it. With large tracts of floorspace dedicated to servers comprising leading-edge chips that can handle the computational demands for training the latest in AI models, as well as inference via end-user connections to the Cloud, data centres are the ideal environment for facilitating much of what AI has to offer. And yet, over the past decade, AI has pu...

Running in the background to the more visible, very real wars occurring around the world at present, there is another, economic and industrial in nature. This is a trade war between two principals: the USA and China. Leo Charlton, Technology Analyst at IDTechEx further discusses.

The use of rare earths in various modern technology has drawn attention over the years. But with the rising demand for electric vehicles (EVs), the issue has been brought to the fore. Dr James Edmondson, Principal Technology Analyst at IDTechEx further explores.

Can electronics be additively manufactured and flexible without compromising on the capabilities of conventionally produced integrated circuits (ICs)?

How far is printed/flexible electronics along the road to widespread adoption? The emerging manufacturing methodology, which replaces etched copper laminate with printed conductive inks on flexible substrates, offers multiple benefits, including flexibility/stretchability, the potential for low-cost roll-to-roll production, digital manufacturing/rapid prototyping, and improved sustainability.

In a recently published article, AI, and Security: Ensuring That Opportunities Outweigh the Threats, IDTechEx discussed the importance of ownership and culpability when it comes to deploying AI tools, especially in the context of creative works.

What do electronic skin patches, thin-film flexible photovoltaics and automotive interior consoles have in common?

Artificial Intelligence has come a long way since the success of DeepMind over Go world champion Lee Sedol in 2016; the world is beginning to change according to the new possibilities afforded by AI.
