Time-sensitive networking: reliable communication for Industrial IoT
Today’s industrial manufacturing cell can include several robot arms, some cameras, position sensors, and some controllers connected together in a network. The cameras and sensors send data to the controllers. The controllers send commands to the robot arms.What happens when a command from the controller arrives at the robot arm a tenth of a second late? Guest blog byKa Kay Achacoso.

Latest tech on board the unmanned aircraft Sagitta
The unmanned aircraft Sagitta has successfully completed its first two test flights at the Overberg test range in South Africa. The project is part of the "Open Innovation" initiative launched by aircraft manufacturer Airbus. The objective is the development of new technologies for unmanned aerial vehicles. Sagitta serves as a platform for testing these technologies and is not focused on any specific end-product.
Environmental sensor enters distribution channel
Distributors have begun selling the BME680 environmental sensor from Bosch Sensortec. The sensor provides highly accurate measurement of indoor air quality, barometric pressure, relative humidity and ambient air temperature. It is housed in a robust yet compact 3.0 x 3.0mm² package making it ideal for both mobile and stationary applications.

IoT development boards support LoRa platform
Two new SmartEverything solutions from Arrow have extended the portfolio of development boards at RS Components. The SmartEverything LION IoT development system-on-module (SoM) board and the SmartEverything ARIS IoT board both offer support for Internet of Things (IoT) application development.
Entropy incorporates quantum fluctuation
Classical thermodynamics was born in the first half of the nineteenth century as a response to the industrial revolution’s need for optimised machines, engines and motors. It focused on calculating such quantities as useful work, dissipated energy and efficiency. According to the second law of thermodynamics, mechanical energy can be completely converted into thermal energy but thermal energy cannot be completely converted into mechanical e...
