Hitachi & Redlen Technologies announce agreement on joint development
Hitachi Medical Corporation, a subsidiary of Hitachi, and Redlen Technologies have announced an agreement to jointly develop a direct conversion semiconductor x-ray detector module required for Photon Counting Computed Tomography systems (PCCT), a promising next generation diagnostic medical imaging modality.
Technology can anonymise encrypted personal data
Hitachi announced the development of technology to securely anonymise encrypted personal data. Anonymisation converts information related to individuals, personal information, to a form which cannot identify the individual. This newly developed technology which conducts anonymisation in a more secure manner will be applied to respond to the expected increase in market needs for anonymised personal data resulting from the revision of the Japanese ...
MHPS to Jointly Research and Develop New Gas Turbine Combustion and Measurement Technology
Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems (MHPS) has signed a joint research agreement on new combustion / measurement technology for gas turbines with Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO). The two companies aim to develop new combustion technology that can use low calorific value fuel efficiently, in preparation for the introduction of low calorific value gases.
The answer to the UK's quantum challenge is SIMPLE
A £3m grant announced by Universities and Science minister Jo Johnsonhas been awarded to the University of Surrey to provide the answer to the challenge of enabling solid state quantum technologies, leading to quantum computers.
Berlin winds up for coil winding & electrical manufacturing expo
On the 10-12th May CWIEME Berlin – the longest running exhibition of its kind – will celebrate its 21st anniversary over six halls at the Messe Berlin in Germany. As registration opens for 2016, organisers i2i Events Group are expecting another strong year for attendance from electrical product design, manufacturing, quality assurance, R&D and procurement professionals.
What’s new at IDTechEx 2016?
Green technologies will take centre stage at this year’s IDTechEx Show, taking place in Berlin from 27th-28th April. Among these will be electric vehicles, which will have a major emphasis at the session ‘Electric Vehicles: Everything is Changing’. Speakers and exhibitors from companies including Toyota, Daimler, Tesla, Siemens and IBM will showcase how mechanical, electric and electronic parts are completely changing and often ...
Are e-textiles on the cusp of rapid growth?
Whilst the majority of wearable technology products sold today still fit with the components-in-a-box design, 2015 has been a record year for investment in smart clothing and e-textile products. To reach the masses, wearable technology must be useful, practical and fashionable: seamless integration within textiles and clothing is seen as a key part of this. However, with many challenges, not least around washability, durability and in manufacturi...
Semiconductor predictions for 2016
The December forecast from Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International (SEMI), revealed that shipments of semiconductor wafer fab equipment are expected to grow 2.5% in 2016 after 0.5% growth in 2015. However, Gartner is more pessimistic, with its October forecast calling for fab equipment to decline 0.5% in 2015 and drop 2.5% in 2016. Gartner projects the market will return to growth in 2017 through 2019.
Accurately estimate behavioural characteristics in real time
Hitachi has developed a technology which can accurately measure human behaviour and estimate attributes (characteristics) in real time. By analysing 3D data obtained from a stereo camera, human behaviour can be measured accurately, in real time, even in a crowded space, which used to be difficult with 2D image data from conventional surveillance cameras.
