Duo provide debugging technology for autonomous cars
Manufacturer of microprocessor development tools, Lauterbach, and QNX, have been working together to provide JTAG debugging capabilities for the QNX Version 7.0 software platform. The development team behind QNX 7.0 regards it as the most advanced and secure embedded operating system (OS) for the automotive industry. QNX Software Development Platform 7.0 (QNX SDP 7.0) is a 64-bit OS that builds on the proven reliability of QNX technology and rais...
Autonomous car test solution debuts at EuMW
At European Microwave Week NI unveiled the Vehicle Radar Test System (VRTS). Engineers can use the VRTS to test 76–81GHz radar technology from the R&D lab through high-volume production test and from individual radar sensors to integrated advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).
Microcontroller family brings autonomous driving a step closer
TheAURIXmicrocontroller family from Infineon Technologies helps realise automated driving by using a critical safety compute element and vehicle interface for the NVIDIA DRIVE PX 2 AI car computing platform.
Seeing the light
Steve Rogerson discusses whether LIDAR can continue its journey to become a sensor technology of choice for autonomous vehicles.LIDAR is not new. The light equivalent to RADAR uses pulsed laser beams and measures their reflections to determine the distance of objects, and it has been around since the 1960s. It was originally used for gathering information about clouds and shot to fame in 1971 when the Apollo 15 mission used it to map the surface ...
Optoelectronics works without glass
Researchers at ETHZurich have developed the first opto-electronic circuit component that works without glass and is instead made of metal. The component, referred to as a modulator, converts electrical data signals into optical signals. It is smaller and faster than current modulators, and much easier and cheaper to make.Optical components for microelectronics must be made of glass.
The importance of the UX in automotive innovation
Held at the World Conference Center in Bonn, Germany, the international VDI Congress ELIV (Electronics In Vehicles) defines new trends and establishes the main basis for decision making in the automotive industry. ELIV is the most significant networking event for professionals in automotive electronics. Daisy Stapley-Bunten reports.
UltraSoC selected for safety applications across ARM platforms
UltraSoC has announced that ELVEES has licensed UltraSoC’s embedded analytics technology for use in its next-gen video processing offerings. The new ELVEES System on Chip (SoC) product will provide advanced capabilities for a broad range of applications, from automotive safety and ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), to facial recognition, augmented/virtual reality and vision based IoT systems.
The latest in commercial vehicle technology
Everything we eat, drink and wear depends on road delivery. That's why road haulage is essential for the people and businesses of the UK.With 2.2 million working in the haulage and logistics industry, it's the UK's fifth largest sector. Cy Wilkinson, Managing Director at Pailton Engineering, looks at the latest technology available in the commercial vehicles, which is helping this thriving industry meet growing demand.
Six-axis robot turns 3D printing into an art form
There is a current project underway at the Centre for Fine Print Research (CFPR) which is looking at 3D printing from a totally different angle - where the emphasis is placed on meaningful expression, rather than the accurate reproduction of digital data, and at the centre of the project lies a flexible Mitsubishi Electric MELFA RV-7FLM articulated arm industrial robot.
Pack it in! Memory packaging market growing steadily
The total memory market is expected to increase at a nine percent CAGR 2016-2022, reaching about $135bn by 2022, with DRAM and NAND constituting almost 95% market share. Moreover, a supply-demand mismatch is pushing memory device ASP, resulting in big memory IDMs reaping record profits. According to Yole Développement (Yole), the total 2016 memory packaging market is estimated at about $20bn with a 4.6% CAGR until 2022. Therefore, memory d...
