Automatic control of microgrids leads to efficient power management
At this year’s Hannover Messe, intelligent software provider RTSoft will be presenting AMIGO (Advanced Microgrid Optimisation), a vendor-independent and fully scalable network management software for the automatic and optimised control of individual microgrids in medium and low voltage structures.
Embedded World:1000Base-T1 test solution aids ECU development
The R&S RTO-K87 option, the first compliance test software on the market for automated testing of IEEE 1000Base-T1 interfaces was released by Rohde & Schwarz at Embedded World in Nuremberg. Fast data transmission within automotive Ethernet networks is critical for driver assistance systems as well as for autonomous driving applications.
Technique protects robot teams’ communication network
In the latest issue of the journalAutonomous Robots, researchers from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory and their colleagues present a technique for preventing malicious hackers from commandeering robot teams’ communication networks. The technique could provide an added layer of security in systems that encrypt communications, or an alternative in circumstances in which encryption is impractical.
Multiple networking technologies converge in autonomous car demonstration at Mobile World Congress
Mobile World Congress is beginning more and more to look similar to the Detroit Auto Show, apart from the obvious elements of the weather, the food, the drinks, the scenery, the architecture and the culture. Guest blog byCharlie Ashton.
CMOS RADAR technology platform aids autonomous driving
Analog Devices announced the Drive360TM 28nm CMOS RADAR technology platform that builds on its established ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), MEMS, and RADAR technology portfolio used throughout the automotive industry. Analog Devices is the first to offer automotive RADAR technology based on a 28nm CMOS process and the new Drive360 RADAR platform brings RF performance to advanced safety and autonomous driving applications.
Autonomous driving state-of-the-art solutions presented
More than 100 international stakeholders representing OEMS, autonomous driving experts, map providers, system providers, ADAS experts, sensor system experts and others met at the 6th Open Auto Drive Forum to discuss standardisation, tests on public roads, high precision maps and the legal implications of vehicle automation.
Compact sensor identifies EMI sources
A compact sensor has been announced by Kanazawa University and Hitachi, capable of identifying the source of electromagnetic interference (EMI) that causes malfunction in components for autonomous operation. The realisation of the compact sensor will not only allow multiple sensors to be embedded in vehicles such as automobiles and trains but also, by configuring it with several antennas, enable the direction of this low-frequency electromagnetic...
It’s all about Industrial IoT at Embedded World 2017
Making an appearance at Embedded World 2017this week, Wind River with the theme top of mind for most is overwhelmingly Industrial IoT. Guest blog byGareth Noyes.
Exploring applications of robots outside manufacturing
Dystopian literature often refers to robots one day taking over the world. Ray Kurzweil predicted over a decade ago, in The Singularity is Near, that robots would reach this stage of intelligence by the year 2030. The increased processing power in the PLCs and industrial PCs used to provide logic in robots, has led to them being used in a number of industry sectors.
Eliminating cyber threat to autonomous cars
Trillium Inc announced the successful closing of its Series A financing round with investments by lead investor Global Brain, Mizuho Capital and DBJ Capital. Trillium designs and provides custom, multi-layer adaptive cyber-security systems, focused in the near-term on automotive needs - but applicable to the entire IoT spectrum. "With funding now in place, we are set to move quickly to market with a robust and urgently needed solution," said Davi...
