Key topics will include automotive, embedded solutions, LED lighting, IoT, Cyber Security and wearables.
Government use of technology could increase food security
Acceptance of information technology can play a vital role in meeting the demand for food in developing countries, according to a study by Iowa State University researchers. The research is published in the journal Information Technologies and International Development. It's projected that the world population will reach 9.6 billion people by 2050, and therefore food production must increase by 70%.
Sunon´s EC motors use 70% less energy than conventional AC motors
Sunon has released its HVAC 1/3 HP EC motor. This high performance, permanent magnet brushless motor is designed to offer much higher energy efficiency (92%) than conventional AC motors under heavy loading. In fact, compared with an AC shaded pole induction motor, the Sunon HVAC 1/3 HP EC can reduce energy consumption by an impressive 70%, and by 40% compared with an AC condensing motor.Sunon HVAC EC motors are intended for use in the evaporator ...
Millimetre wave - the enabler for 5G infrastructure
The availability of previously unused high frequency spectrum bands may be the enabling factor in wireless backhaul for the next generation of mobile networks, writes Sally Ward-Foxton.
100 drones take off in pursuit of a world record
“One rarely experiences moments in which it becomes crystal clear how important and rewarding it can be to defy all the naysayers, to steadfastly pursue a vision and to work unwaveringly for years to bring it to fruition.” That’s how Horst Hörtner, Director, Ars Electronica Futurelab, summarised what was going through his head when 100 drones took off in pursuit of a world record in November 2015.

Quantum dot solids could develop latest era in electronics
Just as the single-crystal silicon wafer forever changed the nature of communication 60 years ago, a group of Cornell researchers is hoping its work with quantum dot solids - crystals made out of crystals - can help usher in the latest era in electronics. The team, led by Tobias Hanrath, associate professor in the Robert Frederick Smith School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, has fashioned two-dimensional superstructures out of single-cr...
Lumberg signs SKEDD Technology license
Whereas to date Lumberg connected the traces ending at the edge of a printed circuit board with edge connectors, SKEDD technology now presents the possibility to connect printed circuit boards at any location. A solderless, even detachable spring-loaded contact in the PCB’s boreholes in combination with a possible locking mechanism on the contact base guarantees the safe electrical and mechanical connection with the traces on the board.
NXP "Smarter World Tour" begins its European journey
NXP’s Smarter World Tour is starting its journey in Europe today. The Smarter World Tour is a highly visible, 36 tons, 2 levels, fully mobile semi-truck trailer designed by Luigi Colani which turns into a large and spacious mobile tradeshow. The aim of the NXP Smarter World Tour in Europe is to allow the company to engage with its customers, partners, as well as universities and communities and let them discover and experience first-hand th...
