The European Space Agency (ESA) has launched 42 tiny satellites aboard a Vega rocket. It took off from ESA’s launch site in French Guiana on 2nd September local time. One of the launched nanosatellites, PICASSO, carries remote sensing technology developed and built by VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland. It will be used to take scientific measurements in the upper layers of the atmosphere.

Imec and GLOBALFOUNDRIES (GF) have announced a hardware demonstration of a new artificial intelligence chip. Based on imec’s Analog in Memory Computing (AiMC) architecture utilizing GF’s 22FDX solution, the new chip is optimized to perform deep neural network calculations on in-memory computing hardware in the analog domain.

Axiomtek has announced thePICO317, its new fanless Pico-ITX board SBC powered by the onboard quad-core Intel Atom x5-E3940 processor (code name: Apollo Lake). This tiny 2.5” embedded board can withstand a wide operating temperature range of -40 to +70°C for use in harsh and space-constraint environments. It comes with dual-display capability through 4K-ready HDMI and 18/24-bit single/dual channel LVDS.

PicoLAS have announced a new Xenon lamp driver board.This new board complements their existing range of laser and LED drivers, for which PicoLAS has a reputation for reliability and cost-effectiveness. The new PL-XBO driver can drive any Xenon arc lamp with input current in the range six to 30A.

Three new 4-channel models, each of which can be configured with 16 optional digital channels have added more T&M muscle to Pico Technology’s PicoScope 6000E Series oscilloscopes.

Paragraf’s Dr Hugh Glass outlines the extraordinary technical characteristics of an exciting new electronic device - graphene-based Hall effect sensors.

VITEC has announced MGW Pico+ TOUGH, a credit card size HEVC encoder and H.264 HD/SD video encoder. Upgrading our MGW Pico TOUGH unit with next-generation HEVC/H.265 compression, it features a robust, fan-less and waterproof design, and is fully MIL-STD certified, making it suitable for use on unmanned and manned vehicles, in fly-away kits, or hand-carried in extreme conditions.

LASER COMPONENTS has announced that it offers a range of drive electronics to complement its vast selection of laser diodes. The LDP-C series from PicoLAS offers cost effective, compact and efficient performance thanks to their innovative current regulation concept and passive cooling.

The 5G market is expanding rapidly, with the first installations already being demonstrated. The increasing deployment of 5G will generate innovation and growth opportunities in thermal management. The shift to higher frequencies, and the accompanied higher signal loss, necessitates the densification of network installations, hence, utilising many more small-sized (pico or femto) stations. This acts to multiply the potential market for 5G infrast...

SICK is continuing the roll-out of its customisable SensorApps for ‘easy’ machine vision, with the launch of its Colour Inspection and Sorting App, a cost-saving and simple solution for common inline quality control tasks in automated production and packaging applications.
