After developing a prototype portable breath-based alcohol detection device in March last year, Hitachi has now developed a prototype system for a new breath-alcohol detection device equipped with facial recognition.

Total Recycling Services is celebrating further success with significant growth and creation of jobs in its newly established industrial cleaning services division.

Following the completion of a £3.5m research facility, the University of Huddersfield has been established as one of Europe’s leading centres for the use of ion beams as a tool for the investigation of issues ranging from nuclear technology and nanoparticles to semiconductors and the effects of radiation exposure on materials in space. Europe has three transmission electron microscopes with in situ ion beam research facilities and two...

Qualcomm Technologies has introduced at a conference in Shenzhen, a Smart Audio Platform to help manufacturers accelerate the development and commercialisation of smart and networked speakers. The flexible solution offers two Qualcomm SoC options based on APQ8009 and APQ8017, with a range of software configurations that are designed to allow OEMs to create truly optimised smart speakers across various product tiers and categories.

Due to the need for capital efficiency, asset efficiency and resource efficiency,tectonic shifts are underway across process and discrete industries. These trends are nurturing the growth of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Industry 4.0. The convergence of algorithms, cloud, data, devices and networks drive a creative destruction and expansion of traditional business models. Further, the directional shift from CAPEX◇OPEX cycles will see th...

The termStretchable Electronics conceals great diversity. Indeed, it is an umbrella term that refers to a whole host of emerging electronic materials, components and devices that exhibit some degree of mechanical stretchability.Stretchable electronics has been in the making for than a decade, but it up to now it has been mostly a solution looking for a problem.

It has been announced that Hitachi Power Solutions, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hitachi is adding new ‘Failure cause estimation’ and ‘Predictive services’ to its operated services using the original predictive diagnostics system.

PCIM Europe 2017: Soft-PGS, the compressible thermal interface material (TIM) from Panasonic reduces contact thermal resistance between rough surfaces in extremely thin spaces.

A compact sensor has been announced by Kanazawa University and Hitachi, capable of identifying the source of electromagnetic interference (EMI) that causes malfunction in components for autonomous operation. The realisation of the compact sensor will not only allow multiple sensors to be embedded in vehicles such as automobiles and trains but also, by configuring it with several antennas, enable the direction of this low-frequency electromagnetic...

Hitachi’s new map 3D software based on Mountains Technology is said to open up a world of opportunities for researchers and industrial engineers using Hitachi High-Technologie’s scanning electron microscopy (SEM) systems.
