Now that embedded world 2021 has moved to the digital space, Infineon have decided to take full advantage of the virtual possibilities. Under the nameEmbedded Solutions Conference (ESC) 2021, Infineon has created an exclusive virtual booth at embedded world DIGITAL, for informative demos and presentations, inspiring expert talks, and virtual tours.

In military and defence applications, speed is crucial. Whether that is the response time of deployed soldiers or the speed at which information is communicated from the field to outposts or command centres. This is wheredeterministic Ethernet comes into play.

ACEINNAhas announced thatGeosunhas selected ACEINNA to supply the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensors that are critical for highly accurate mobile positioning and navigation. Geosun is integrating ACEINNA’s OpenIMU330BI and IMU383 IMU’s into their various LiDAR Scanning Systems that are used to help navigate and guide airborne drone systems, especially those used in a variety of construction planning and mapping operations.

Solar vehicles and boats are now mainstream, some never plugging in. The technology of the most advanced ones is being licensed to others, a robot shuttle being next up.

igus has released a cost effective, lightweight, plug & play gearbox kit consisting of gearbox, encoder, controller, force control system and motor for collaborative robotics.The potential for service robotics is growing fast: in hospitality, medical care, agriculture and logistics, lightweight robots help to automate monotonous tasks. To show that using service robots can be easy and low cost, igus will present a modular, configurable gearbo...

EPC has announced the introduction of an eToF laser driver that integrates a 40V, 10A FET with a gate driver and low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) logic level input in a single chip fortime-of-flight lidarsystems used in robotics, drones, augmented reality, and gaming applications.

element14 is celebrating the fourth birthday of its popular monthly Project14 design competition on March 26, with the launch of its “Attack of the Drones” competition. The competition is a homage to Sci-Fi and its influence on drone technology.

In 2017, after four years of setbacks and crashes, Alphabet shut its project flying solar-powered fixed-wing drones in the upper atmosphere to beam the internet to those cut-off. Facebook then exited its similar project, but the Chinese aerospace industry, Airbus, Boeing, and NASA are progressing them very well.

TDK has announced the introduction of 20A 300W rated models to the TDK Lambda brand i7C series of non-isolated DC/DC converters. The output voltage of these latest step-up and step-down converters is adjustable from eight to 24V, and they are optimised to operate from a wide range input voltage of nine to 36V. The converters transition from buck to boost mode operation without disruption in performance.

URLLC applications have stringent requirements for latency and reliability. This means we need to understand their performance envelopes to ensure their correct functioning and successful deployment in the field. To characterize the application’s performance, a wide range of conditions need to be tested, including testing extreme and rare events.Pavol Polacek, Wireless Specialist fromAnritsu explains more.
