Season 3 - Episode #1 - The future of drone delivery in urban areas
In a bid to realise the future of autonomous airborne delivery, Airwayz is taking part in a two-year pilot programme that will see drone delivery tested above and beyond any other scheme of its kind. In a world-first, drones will operate in mesh networks in Hadera, just north of Tel Aviv, to validate the safe and efficient integration of drone deliveries in urban environments.
Ensuring robust networks in demanding applications
Whether used for on-board entertainment on trains or video feed transmission from military drones, connectivity is becoming an important factor in non-commercial applications. As more embedded systems adopt networked architectures, Ethernet switches play an increasingly crucial role. Here, Mark Jeffrey, Technical Director ofRecab UK, explains how to select Ethernet switches for demanding operating environments.
How will food be made in the future?
From free-range chicken to food miles on alfalfa, eating ethically is becoming more and more of a head-scratcher. Even for vegans, there are the questions of how sustainably agave was sourced, or whether environment-damaging pesticides were used to grow kale - and all that is without even considering how the food tastes.
