Free IoT seminars focus on sensors and networking
Forecasters say the Internet of Things (IoT) market will be worth between $7trn and $9trn by 2020. That is exciting chip makers and their distributors. Rutronik is keen to promote its activities on behalf of its suppliers and is rolling out a series of one-day seminars which will embrace networking with sensor developments, two technologies driving many developments related to the Internet of Things (IoT).
HEVC IC offers real time 4K encoding on a single chip
Socionext has started sampling the world’s first HEVC/H.265 - compatible encoder IC, the MB86M31, along with an evaluation board, the MB86M31-EVB, and SDK for drivers and applications. The device is capable of real-time encoding of 4K/p60 video with the latest video compression technology. HEVC achieves the transmission of realistic 4K video at half the cost of the preceding H.264 technology without a loss of quality.
