A new optical sensor that can check the presence of contaminants in milk and produce a detailed reading in five minutes, is set to dramatically reduce costs, wastage and antibiotic use linked to the production, quality control, and processing phases in the dairy industry.

It has been announced that Synopsys was selected by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) for the Posh Open Source Hardware (POSH) program to create new innovation in analog mixed signal verification as part of its Electronics Resurgence Initiative (ERI), in partnership with Lockheed Martin and Analog Devices, using Synopsys’ ZeBu emulation technology.

MACOM Technology Solutions (MACOM), will showcase its smart solutions supporting 5G, Cloud Data Centers, Client Access and Metro/Long Haul Applications with its PAM-4, Silicon Photonics and 64 GBaud products and solutions at ECOC 2018, Booth #579 in Roma, Italy, 23rd to 27th September.

Just as 20th Century engineers relied on electric motors, 21st Century engineers are turning to lasers and fibre optics to create machines and technologies that will change the world and redefine life as we know it. Here, Gerard Bush of motion experts INMOCO explains how the precision optical systems required are pushing the boundaries of drives and controls.

Ghent University (UGent) and imec have announced the incorporation of Sentea, a spin-off from their world leading Photonics Research Group. An initial €1.6m in funding was raised from Fidimec, Finindus, PMV and QBIC II and the founders. Sentea will develop and market advanced silicon photonics based fibre optic sensing solutions.

Swiss technology firm known for its breakthrough Dynamic PhotoDiodes (DPDs), ActLight, has announced that it has signed an agreement with a top semiconductor company for the integration and licensing of the DPD into their Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) for vital signs monitoring, to be used in the next generation of wearable devices.

It has been announced by MKS Instruments that Ophir Photonics has received ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation for its Jerusalem, Israel Calibration Laboratory. ISO/IEC 17025 is given to calibration laboratories who have achieved the highest standards of quality, administration, and technical operations.

A group of EU-funded researchers are incorporating VCSEL laser sources with silicon photonics to develop long wavelength, high capacity communications for the very first time, paving the way for light-speed metropolitan connectivity, and powering new ‘smart’ services like future gaming and on-demand TV.

It has been announced that LASER World of PHOTONICS INDIA is returning to Bengaluru this year from 26th to 29th September at Bangalore International Exhibition Centre, where participants will benefit from more technologies on display, as well as experience learning and networking programs.

MIT engineers have united the principles of self-assembly and 3D printing using a new technique, which they highlight today in the journalAdvanced Materials.By their direct-write colloidal assembly process, the researchers can build centimeter-high crystals, each made from billions of individual colloids, defined as particles that are between 1nm and 1μm cross.
