Towards ultra-conformable 'electronic tattoo' devices
A group of researchers at Waseda University has developed processes and materials for ultrathin stick-on electronic devices using elastomeric "nanosheet" film, achieving ease of production while also preserving high elasticity and flexibility fifty times better than previously reported polymer nanosheets.This research is published in theJournal of Materials Chemistry Conline edition.

Wireless protocols are vying for IoT dominance
Much has been written about the IoT and how it has the potential to open up opportunities and maximise the efficiency of current processes. However, the time for talking about potential is now over - it’s time to begin thinking about how to actually implement an IoT solution and reap the benefits. Mark Patrick of Mouser Electronics explains.
Making SENSE of touchscreen software
The addition of Fieldscale’s SENSE has been announced by Altair Partner Alliance (APA), to its software offering.Sense is an intuitive and highly advanced touchscreen design and simulation tool. The algorithms provide accurate results up to ten times faster than any other simulation software. As a result, engineers save effort and time and products are launched sooner and with increased profit margins.
caresyntax exhibits at HIMSS Conference 2017
Boston-based healthcare technology platform firm caresyntaxexhibits at HIMSS Conference in Orlando, Florida. The firm showcases how its perioperative solutions reduce unproductive time and deliver better care in hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers. caresyntaxenhances concepts of integrated operating room medical devices and workflows by applying its unique vendor-neutral Internet of Medical Things (IoT) approach to the entire horizontal per...
Refining the process of machine learning by deception
When computers independently identify bodies of water and their outlines in satellite images, or beat the world’s best professional players at the board game Go, then adaptive algorithms are working in the background. Programmers supply these algorithms with known examples in a training phase: images of bodies of water and land, or sequences of Go moves that have led to success or failure in tournaments.
Finding the right balance between automated and manual testing
In the world of software testing, test automation can very easily seem like a golden nugget.Consider the case of a tester who runs several manual tests that eat up time that he or she wants to spend focusing on other areas of the application. Test automation to the rescue, right?While it’s true that automating test executions can save valuable time, it’s not as simple as it might sound.
Being a successful engineer shouldn't be based on gender
It's no secret that there are far more men in engineering than women; however that does not mean that men are more successful.Philippa Oldham, Head of Transport and Manufacturing at the Institution of Mechanical Engineers is evidence of this.From a young age, the word engineering was always a buzzword in Philippa’s household, as both her great-grandfather and grandfather, who she unfortunately never got to meet, were both engineers, so her ...
Size matters: be careful what you 'lift' for
To comply with safety regulations, businesses whose employees routinely work at height appreciate thatthey must use appropriate access equipment, yet those undertaking only occasional or seasonal activities may be unclear about their responsibilities. Briggs Equipment has therefore come up with ten tips to help businesses hire the most appropriate aerial access machines, also known as Mobile Elevated Work Platforms (MEWPs), to maintain a safe env...
