World's smallest 3D camera brings AR to a smartphone
Lenovo is the first manufacturer worldwide to bring Tango technology to a consumer product. Google's technology that allows devices to understand spatial information is an exclusive feature in the PHAB2 Pro smartphone launched today. Based on the Time-of-Flight principle, the REAL3 image sensor chip from Infineon equips the smartphone with a 3-dimensional perception of the surroundings in real-time.
Vehicle hybridisation is pulling the power electronics market
“2015 was an important year for power electronics industry”, announces Yole, the 'More than Moore' market research and strategy consulting company. Indeed 2015 corresponds to the beginning of ASP strong erosion due to the high production volume.
Latest report on emerging non-volatile memory
A report recently released by Yole Développement (Yole) has shown that emerging NVM sales are still moderate, announcing a $53m market in 2015. According to the ‘More than Moore’ market research and strategy consulting company, this market is limited to niche markets due to the limited density available.
Kit enables easy creation of custom industrial PCs
Fujitsu has announced a FUJITSU Kit Solution with extensive accessories, enabling customers to easily create industrial PCs for the particular requirements of their application. The kit includes a newly developed housing measuring 250x52x191mm, the Mini-ITX mainboards D3433-S or D3434-S with 6th gen Intel Core technology and a PCIe riser card.
“SemI40” strengthens Europe’s economy with the “learning factory”
The research project SemI40 (“Power Semiconductor and Electronics Manufacturing 4.0”) led by Infineon Austria was launched recently. In this project 37 partners from five countries will carry out research into further developing autonomous factories. The common goal is the next stage in the development of Industry 4.0 applications. With a volume of €62m, the research project is one of the largest Industry 4.0 projects in Europe.
SiC power is creating opportunities for suppliers
A variety of industries are developing new products that include SiC technologies. “The SiC power business is concrete and real, with a promising outlook,” stated Yole Développement (Yole) in its latest compound semiconductor report, Power SiC 2016: Materials, Devices, Modules & Applications.
Google & Infineon advance gesture control partnership
For the first time, two prototypes of products controlled exclusively through gestures were demonstrated at Google I/O: a smartwatch and a wireless speaker. Both devices can recognise gestures that replace switches or buttons with this revolutionary concept, which was enabled by technology from Infineon Technologies and Google ATAP.
IDTechEx reports: eliminating extra EV systems
EVs have a cost challenge: hybrids have complexity problems meaning reliability and space issues. Extra power electronic units arrive for tasks such as a vehicle-to-grid, vehicle-to-house and inductive charging. Many more will be added in future such as regeneration modules - thermoelectric, exhaust turbine, energy harvesting shock absorber and thermoelectric, for example.
Infineon launches "Internet of Sensors" pilot project
Infineon Technologies has launched what it claims to be one of the most important European pilot line projects for sensors and sensor systems at its Dresden site. The project name, IoSense, is derived from the “Internet of Sensors”. The IoT will require vast quantities of sensors in order to succeed. Cost-effective production of sensor systems is, therefore, a key prerequisite as they enable devices and systems to capture and process ...
