Project aims to boost Europe as a production location
A project aiming to make manufacturing jobs more attractive in order to boost Europe as a production location has been launched by the VIRTUAL VEHICLE Research Center in Graz. Five European research partners from eight countries are part of this project, named FACT4WORKERS.
VDK speeds software development for Freescale S32V200 MCUs
Synopsys has announced the availability of its VDK for Freescale's S32V200 family of MCUs. The VDK uses the S32V234 virtual prototype as an embedded target for early and more efficient software development, integration and test of ADAS.
Robotics growth 'not at the expense of humans'
“The growth of robotics as a way to automateelements of the supply chain and improve efficiencies will not be at theexpense of humans,” states Jon Gibson, Head of Logistics, Crimson & Co, who believes thatautomation could actually lead to humansenhancing their skills, ultimatelyenabling them to perform their job functions better.
Intelligent platform offers intuitive UI experience
Qualcomm will preview a series of next-gen mobile experiences at MWC 2015 through the power of the Qualcomm Zeroth platform, Qualcomm’s first cognitive computing platform designed to enhance on-device user experience. The Zeroth platform will be optimised for premium mobile devices based on Qualcomm's next-gen premium tier SoC, the Snapdragon 820 processor.
Compact scanner simplifies mobile network optimisation
Rohde & Schwarz has unveiled an autonomous mobile network scanner at Mobile World Congress 2015 in Barcelona (March 2-5). Unlike previous scanner models, the R&S TSMA features an integrated high power processor and does not require an external PC, making it compact, lightweight and independent.
NASA hands over the reins to amateur asteroid hunters
Thanks to NASA’sAsteroid Data Huntercontest, the public can play with a software application that has the potential to increase the number of new asteroids discovered. The application is based on an algorithm which proved a 15% increase in positively identifying asteroids between Mars and Jupiter during testing.You don’t have to be a NASA scientist to work the application - it can be used by amateur astronomers and citizen scientists.
