Computational photography could improve self-driving cars
MIT researchers have developed a system that can produce images of objects shrouded by fog so thick that human vision can’t penetrate it. It can also gauge the objects’ distance.An inability to handle misty driving conditions has been one of the chief obstacles to the development of autonomous vehicular navigation systems that use visible light, which are preferable to radar-based systems for their high resolution and ability to read ...

EEF Manufacturing conference: security, smart cities and Brexit
At this year’s EEF Manufacturing conference it is safe to say, the day did not disappoint. With a lot riding on the consequences to UK industry and companies with Brexit looming, the largest number of people to date attended the day to hear answers and truths about what the professionals and our Government think it will happen.With speeches from Liam Fox Secretary of State, and Leader of the opposition Jeremy Corbyn, there was a definite fe...
Power-on-Package system enables higher XPU performance
A new Power-on-Package (‘PoP’) ChiP-set has been announced by Vicor Corporation to include Modular Current Multipliers (‘MCMs’) for high performance GPU, CPU, and ASIC (‘XPU’) processors.PoP MCMs multiply current and divide voltage from a 48V source in close proximity to XPUs to enable higher levels of XPU performance.
British Science Week aims to tackle plastic pollution with drones
For some time now, plastic pollution has been at the forefront of the environmental news agenda, but it’s only in the last few years where governments, corporations and the everyday consumer have come together to ramp up their efforts and face this problem head on. Most recently, restaurant chains and supermarkets have confirmed their commitment to reducing the level of plastic in their products, while governments have urged people to recyc...
The increasing need for security throughout an IIoT system
At Embedded World, Real-Time Innovations has announced a live demo of Connext DDS Secure to highlight the increasing need for security throughout an IIoT system. The demo features Connext DDS in a Healthcare application, specifically a secured integrated clinical environment (ICE). This security architecture can easily extend to other markets, such as autonomous vehicles, smart grid/energy, and aerospace and defense.
