An automotive radar microcontroller (MCU) has been announced by NXP Semiconductors. The NXP S32R27 will deliver the features and performance required for making safe, automated driving a reality. An estimated 50% of all car radar modules shipped in 2016 will utilise NXP radar processing and front-end technology.

Two proven technologies have been combined to create a promising new technology that could meet future navigational challenges in deep space. It also may help demonstrate -- for the first time -- X-ray communications in space, a capability that would allow the transmission of gigabits per second throughout the solar system.The new technology, called NavCube, combines NASA's SpaceCube, a reconfigurable and fast flight computing platform, with the ...

VeriStand 2016, the latest version of software used by embedded software test engineers to build and run hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) verification systems has been released by NI. Today’s engineers face increasingly compressed, shifting schedules and constantly changing requirements driven by the emergence of the connected car and autonomous vehicles.

When planning an Agile software development project for a hardware product design, project design strategy can be greatly simplified by choosing a development environment that is designed for use with your industry standards. It is even more important when the product safety is a key concern, requiring compliance with a range of strict safety related standards.

Electronic Specifier Editor Joe Bush talks to Steve Glaser, SVP Corporate Strategy & Marketing at Xilinx about the most recent changes at the company that have brought about its latest product offering.
