ACEINNA hasannounced its new OpenIMU300RI. A rugged, sealed-package, open-source, nine-Degree-of-Freedom (9-DoF) Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) for autonomous off road, construction, agricultural and automotive vehicle applications. This new open-source IMU, allows engineers to easily optimise an attitude, navigation or other algorithm for their vehicle/application and run it in on the IMU.

The PST-360 from PIHER, now available from Rutronik UK, is a slimline, 12 mm height, package solution sensor mounted directly into the shaft, with no gears. Completely contactless, the position sensor provides excellent repeatability, accuracy, resolution, linearity and high stability even under harsh environmental conditions.

Graphene Flagshippartner, Emberion, is launching a new VIS-SWIR graphene photodetector at Laser World of Photonics on 24th to 27th June in Munich, Germany. Showcased in Hall A2 at stand 113/3, the linear array can enable on-site analysis of food and agriculture products using infrared detection - at a lower cost than existing indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) infrared sensors.

Biomass could play a pivotal role in heat decarbonisation and help the UK meet its renewable heat targets, according to AMP Clean Energy. Around six percent of heat in the UK currently comes from renewable sources, but EU targets require it to double to 12% by 2020.

Power is always an interesting topic as it is a necessity in life, but after visiting my first ever PCIM show this week it has opened my eyes as to how big the automotive power sector is, and how much it is expected to grow.Of course the big players in the automotive industry continue to innovate, but PCIM this year saw more companies starting to become involved in automotive power, whereas before they stuck to the more energy and industrial side...

The cost of IoT sensors continues to fall annually allowing more and more organisations in industries that operate across large areas, such as agriculture and utilities, to roll out remote IoT and M2M deployments. To ensure these projects achieve strong ROI, hardware has to tough it out in harsh conditions with minimal maintenance. Andy Bird, Managing Director of GTT Wireless, discusses the requirements for antennas selected for rugged wireless d...
