A licensing agreement has been announced between UltraSoC and Movidius, under which Movidius will incorporate UltraSoC’s semiconductor IP into its next-generation low-power machine vision Systems-On-Chip (SoCs).Movidius will combine UltraSoC’s monitoring and analytics Intellectual Property (IP) and tools, with its own MoviDebug technology, to create a powerful chip-wide debug and communications infrastructure that will support its end...

Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institutes for Optronics, System Technologies and Image Exploitation IOSB in Karlsruhe and for Industrial Engineering IAO in Stuttgart are collaborating with their colleagues at Volkswagen Group Research, Bosch, Visteon and other companies as part of the "Intelligent Car Interior" project, or InCarIn for short. Together, they are developing a system designed for the vehicle interior.

The wireless data transmission via mobile communication is reliable and affordable. However, data volume per user is rising exponentially. Causes are not only the continuously growing number of smartphones, but also trends as V2V or M2M communication – cars and machines need to communicate in high speed with each other. From 2020 the 5G mobile standard is aiming to transmit data rapidly and energy-efficiently.

Jaguar Land Rover’s multi-million pound Autonomous all-terrain driving research project envisages a self-driving car that can navigate both on-road and off-road as well as in difficult weather conditions. The project has used Cohda Wireless MK5 On-Board Units and software stacks and applications to deploy its V2X (vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure) systems.

Using the latest cutting edge technology in elite sports is something that has been well documented, and here at Electronic Specifier we have covered a variety of stories from an early warning system used in rugby to assist in detecting and avoiding concussions to football coaches using drones to give them an alternative view of training sessions.

A software suite for multi-disciplinary design and engineering has been released by solidThinking.This model-based development technology suite drives innovation through simulation by uniquely combining maths, signal-based, physical and 3D modeling technologies for concept studies, control design, system performance optimisation and controller implementation and testing.

Early examples of the “potential” of the Internet of Things (IoT) patently failed to inspire enthusiasm worthy of (what has been rightly termed) the fourth industrial revolution. Prefixing everyday items with “smart” quickly became ubiquitous, with “smart” toasters and kettles negating the apparently now unacceptable effort of journeying far into one’s kitchen and manually flicking a switch.

Researchers have used CRISPR to convert cells isolated from mouse connective tissue directly into neuronal cells.In 2006, Shinya Yamanaka, a professor at the Institute for Frontier Medical Sciences at Kyoto University at the time, discovered how to revert adult connective tissue cells, called fibroblasts, back into immature stem cells that could differentiate into any cell type.

Open air is getting crowded. Signals streaming back and forth from smart devices stretch existing fourth-generation wireless networks almost to their limits.As demands on these systems increase, University of Wisconsin–Madison engineers aim to open new frontiers in cutting-edge wireless communications. Their research is part of a National Science Foundation (NSF) initiative announced to develop the next-gen wireless technologies.

The global vendor of power supply systems and provider of industrial power supply and renewable energy solutions, AEG Power Solutions, has announced that it was awarded a contract to supply equipment that will be insuring uninterrupted power supply for the Yamal LNG Project (Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Area, Russia).
