LIDAR sensor line joins Mouser’s global network
Mouser Electronics has added LIDAR sensors and modules to its portfolio by signing a global distribution deal with Benewake.
European police choose SkyWall net capture drone
SkyWall Patrol was operated in a live urban environment in a series of tests. These tests were conducted at the end of 2019 as part of the Internal Security Fund - Police project SKYFALL, an EU-funded programme. The system was then down selected as part of a formal evaluation, due to SkyWall Patrol’s unmatched range and performance, while providing a low collateral damage and physical defeat of the target drones.
Wind River Studio powers mission-critical intelligent systems
Wind River hasdebuted Wind River Studio, a cloud-native platform for the development, deployment, operations, and servicing of mission-critical intelligent systems where security, safety, and reliability are required. This first release of Studio enables the flexible and efficient deployment, management, and operations of intelligent 5G distributed edge clouds through one single pane of glass.
Differential pressure sensors for industrial applications
Superior Sensor Technologyhas announced differential pressure sensors for industrial applications that support up to seven selectable pressure ranges in one device. Designed for a wide range of applications, the company’s newND Seriessensors support pressure ranges as low as 62.5 Pa/0.25” H2O to as high as 345 mBar/5 psi with an accuracy within 0.05% and Total Error Band (TEB) of less than 0.15% FSS.
Impedance-matching simplifies portable GNSS receivers
STMicroelectronics’ BPF8089-01SC6 RF front-end forGNSS receivers (Global Navigation Satellite System) have simplified design and saved real-estate by integrating the impedance-matching and electrostatic-discharge (ESD) protection circuitry typically implemented using discrete components.
How the uptake of robotics will change workforces
UK General Sir Nick Carter has suggested that a quarter of the British army could be robots by the 2030s. However, the armed forces isn’t the only industry that’s facing an increasing number of robot employees. Here Stewart Goulding, Managing Director ofElectro Mechanical Systems (EMS), explains how the rise of robotic workers poses promise, not a threat.
Agriculture 4.0: reaping the benefits of technology
Food production must increase to feed an extra two billion people by 2050 -but how can this be done with limited land and workforce? Here Stewart Goulding, Managing Director ofElectro Mechanical Systems (EMS), explores how technology can boost the productivity of agriculture.
Drone swarm show enabled by u-blox technology
u-blox has announced that it supplied the high-accuracy technology that made it possible to fly a large drone swarm. The reportedly record-breaking simultaneous flight of 2198 miniature UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) was launched into the night sky over Saint Petersburg, Russia, on September 3rd. The ten-minute long drone show included a flying dove with a wingspan of 600 meters, which was visible from three kilometers away.
Empowering sustainable energy with decentralisation
The energy system is undergoing unprecedented transformation, fuelled by factors such as technological developments, geopolitical shifts and environmental concerns. According to the World Economic Forum, decentralisation is one of the key trends that will accelerate the transition to sustainable energy supply.
