The Road Of Tomorrow Is Electric
Consider a future where trucks and buses are continuously supplied with electric power without carrying large batteries. Instead, power lines are built into the surface of the road. This could be a future solution for long-distance trucks and buses running on electricity.
Non-Destructive Testing - how far should you go
Every day millions of components are produced around the world to help build everything from a simple toy to fighter jets. For every manufacturer involved in the process, a decision must be made on how to test the component to ensure it meets the design criteria. For the vast majority, batch inspection and testing is sufficient, however, where high precision engineering is involved the testing must be exhaustive and comprehensive.

The Future Of Machines
While our modern economy couldn’t function without it, the potential of machine-to-machine communications is far from exhausted; only a fraction of the available data is currently used and it holds the potential to provide deeper insights in the future. By Jürgen Hase, Vice President M2M Competence Center, Deutsche Telekom AG.
The Electric Vehicle Business: New Developments
Electric vehicles (EVs) are a large, growing market with new sectors being added all the time such as the pure electric, multi-rotor volocopter that spawned a new regulatory category in German aviation this year. IDTechEx find that pure electric car sales in 2013 will be 70,000 vehicles rising to 2 million in 2023, versus 2 million hybrid vehicles this year rising to 7.6 million in 2023. Of course, the big unit numbers come at the small end - mos...
