Steve Rogerson looks at some of the recent news that may have missed the front page.

The startup LuxAI was created following a project at the Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust of the University of Luxembourg, funded by the Luxembourg National Research Fund under its Proof of Concept scheme. The business model of LuxAI is developing and constructing so-called social robots. Such robots can be used, for example, in the educational or health system, where they would support trainers and therapists in their...

NXP Semiconductors and eSSys have announced that they will be technology partners in Korea’s next gen Cooperative Intelligent Transportation System (C-ITS) project promoted by the Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. NXP will supply eSSys with its RoadLINK V2X chipset, a vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2X) communication and security solution which will be test-operated on an 87.8km route between Sejong C...

Smart machines – such as autonomous vehicles – are driving the current phase in the evolution of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).

The combination of connectivity, automation, plus shared vehicle ownership and use has the potential to make car travel greener and cheaper, cutting energy use and helping accelerate the introduction of low carbon vehicles.

Oxford-based technology company, Oxbotica, is launching a Selenium mobile autonomy software solution with a purpose built concept vehicle at Culham Science Centre in Oxfordshire.

Physics student Darius Merk has used an insect-inspired algorithm to develop a drone that can navigate around obstacles. His research could prove particularly useful in a natural disaster. How do you send a drone on a reconnaissance mission in a hard-to-reach area without it getting stuck in the rubble? The drone could of course be remotely controlled, but you could lose contact with the device if it went behind a wall.

It has been announced by Synopsys that its TetraMAX II Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG) tool delivering 10 times faster run time and 25% fewer test patterns, is now certified for the ISO 26262 automotive functional safety standard. SGS-TÜV Saar GmbH, an independent accredited assessor, formally certified TetraMAX II, following an in-depth functional safety tool qualification.

Science fiction is inching closer to reality with the development of revolutionary self-propelling liquid metals - a critical step towards future elastic electronics.While building a shape-shifting liquid metal T-1000 Terminator may still be far on the horizon, the pioneering work by researchers at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, is setting the foundation for moving beyond solid state electronics towards flexible and dynamically reconfig...

The automotive industry was born ­- and thrived - in the industrial age. Now automakers are poised to become leaders in the digital age as they build increasingly intelligent, connected vehicles for running ADAS, dynamic cockpit information systems and, ultimately, autonomous vehicles capabilities.
