Complete IoT design platform features ConnectCore
A global provider of machine-to-machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity products and services, Digi International, has announced the immediate availability of the ConnectCore for i.MX6UL Development Kit.
Smart hardware can improve IoT efficiency
The Internet of Things (IoT) will use distributed sensors to build more intelligence into the world around us. By sensing chemicals, moisture, temperature and other environmental variables, IoT systems will be able to tune conditions inside buildings to be more comfortable, make factories more productive, and enable distribution to be more effective by keeping the goods under optimum conditions at all times.

Board products feature Atom-based SoC options
Provider of SWaP-optimised embedded computing solutions and board products,DFI Tech, has released a product line of Pico-ITX boards featuring Atom-based SoC and ARM-based processor options.The first in the Pico-ITX series is a 6th Generation Intel Atom SoC processor with up to 8GB of DDR3L memory.
Cable goes mobile – or is it the other way round?
It seems almost laughable now to think that voice was the driving force behind the development of the original telecommunications services.How surprised those early pioneers of telephony and telegraphy, Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Edison and Guglielmo Marconi, would be to find teenagers wandering around, mobile phone in hand, downloading and watching videos as they go.
COM Express Mini module offers more than any module before
congatec has released the conga-MA5, the next generation of low-power modules for the industrial and extended temperature range in the credit card sized COM Express Mini form factor. The new COM Express Type 10 Computer-on-Modules are equipped with the latest Intel Atom, Celeron and Pentium processors (code name Apollo Lake) and impress with 30% more processing power and 45% more graphics performance on a very small COM Express Mini module.
Visual stimulation may be latest treatment for Alzheimer’s
Using LED lights flickering at a specific frequency, MIT researchers have shown that they can substantially reduce the beta amyloid plaques seen in Alzheimer’s disease, in the visual cortex of mice.This treatment appears to work by inducing brain waves known as gamma oscillations, which the researchers discovered help the brain suppress beta amyloid production and invigorate cells responsible for destroying the plaques.
Bringing smart IoT applications to homes and small businesses
The availability of LoRa multi-band picocell reference design for a variety of indoor applications has been announced by Semtech Corporation. Consumer and enterprise equipment manufacturers are currently testing the LoRa picocell reference design, using Semtech’s SX1308 picocell gateway IC coupled with a SX1255 or SX1257 LoRa RF transceiver, and are expected to help bring low cost LoRaWAN networks to market for consumers and private enterpr...
Intel embedded platforms support the IoT
Advantech unveils its new comprehensive range of embedded computing platforms with the latest IntelAtomProcessor E3900 series, IntelCeleronProcessor N3350 and IntelPentiumProcessor N4200 (formerly Apollo Lake).
Mini-ITX and Pico-ITX boards feature security enhancements
The conga-PA5 Pico-ITX single board computer and the conga-IA5 Thin Mini-ITX motherboard, two industrial-grade, long-term available computing platforms featuring the latest Intel Atom, Celeron and Pentium processors, has been introduced by congatec. System engineers can immediately deploy them to upgrade existing Pico-ITX and Mini-ITX designs and benefit from approximately 30% more processing power and 45% more graphics performance compared to th...
Smallest magnifying glass shows chemical bonds between atoms
For centuries, scientists believed that light, like all waves, couldn't be focused down smaller than its wavelength, just under a millionth of a metre. Now, researchers led by the University of Cambridge have created the world's smallest magnifying glass, which focuses light a billion times more tightly, down to the scale of single atoms.In collaboration with colleagues from Spain, the team used highly conductive gold nanoparticles to make the wo...
