IoT supplier ecosystem estimated to reach €420bn by 2020
In the evolution towards the Smart Manufacturing paradigm, end-user requirements are set to evolve and become more complex than ever before. Global suppliers find it increasingly difficult to meet the growing needs of the end-users that are further augmented with a very high degree of complexity. However, the current scenario will also provide the biggest opportunity to realign one’s existing business approach and forge alliances and partne...
COPA-DATA and COSMO CONSULT collaborate
A close collaboration has begun between the automation solutions specialist COPA-DATA and COSMO CONSULT, the leading pan-European Microsoft Partner for the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution Microsoft Dynamics NAV. The goal of this partnership is to offer customers a simple and secure real-time connection of the process level with Microsoft Dynamics NAV, and thereby create a seamless information flow between the ERP level and the product...
Computer operates using the physics of moving water
Computers and water typically don't mix, but in Manu Prakash's lab, the two are one and the same. Prakash, Assistant Professor of Bioengineering, Stanford, and his students have built a synchronous computer that operates using the unique physics of moving water droplets.
China’s energy storage market will be worth $8.7bn by 2025
Driven by environmental problems, a growing auto industry, and a policy push, China’s advanced energy storage market will be worth $8.7bn by 2025, more than quadrupling from the current $1.7bn, according to Lux Research.
Simulation and Compensation of Motion: Hexapods for Dynamic Applications
Small motion often has a great effect. Just a light shaking of the hand results in blurred, "fuzzy" photographs; unwanted motion due to guiding errors, machining processes etc. can interfere with precision machines during production to such an extent that the result becomes unusable. The constantly increasing requirements on quality and performance of the product make it necessary to avoid these types of problems. The simulation of motion and its...
App allows user to count calories by simply taking a photo
With the ever growing pictures of meals and food on social media, Google has decided to create an app that allows users to count the calories of their food by simply taking a photo. Im2Calories and was announced atRework Deep Learning Summit in Boston by Google research scientist Kevin Murphy. The app uses deep learning algorithms to count calories in pictures of food.
National Thermal Engineering Day Honors Those Who Manage Heat in Electronic Devices
Today’s electronic devices are more complex, smarter, smaller, faster running – and hotter – than ever.
The sensor industry continues to rise
The AMA Association for Sensors and Measurement polls its 480 members on the economic development every quarter. After a solid result of 8% for last year, the sensor industry continued its rise in turnover with 6% in the first quarter of 2015. Thus, the sensor, measuring, and testing industry is staying on its course of stable growth.
Feed the world with big data
Big data can be the most flexible tool for increasing the efficiency of food production through precision agriculture: a quantified approach to cultivation that uses sensing, input modulation and data analytics to enhance the efficiency of agriculture. Using it correctly will be essential to feeding the world’s growing population while also improving the environment, according to Lux Research.
