Now in its 8th year, the 2016 Future of Wireless International Conference will turn its attention to the boardroom and explore how industry leaders are planning to transform and build new business models to harness a world with ubiquitous wireless. With headline speakers from the likes of Deutsche Telekom, McLaren and Magna International, the conference will focus on how wireless technology is pushing the boundaries across a number of industry se...

Nordic Semiconductor announces it has launched its latest 'nRFready Smart Remote 3' reference design that is said to make the development of advanced Bluetooth smart remotes as easy as clicking on a list of check box options and so minimising time-to-market and unnecessary design risk.

When Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy needs to diagnose an ill member of the Starship Enterprise, he simply points his tricorder device at their body and it identifies their disease. Similarly, when Capt. Kirk beams down to an alien world, his tricorder quickly analyses if the atmosphere is safe to breathe. Much like them,Stanford engineers are using microwaves and ultrasound to create a safe and portable way to detect hidden objects.

Silicon Labs has revealed broad support for ARM mbed OS within the energy-friendly EFM32 Gecko MCU portfolio based on ARM Cortex-M processors. Silicon Labs’ Giant Gecko, Happy Gecko, Leopard Gecko and Wonder Gecko MCUs running mbed OS along with mbed power management APIs provide best-in-class energy efficiency, design simplicity and security technology for embedded developers creating battery-operated, ARM-based connected devices for the I...

Lattice Semiconductor announced that its MachXO3 FPGA and USB 3.0 sensor bridge reference design are integrated in a USB 3.0 camera module from Leopard Imaging. The MachXO3 FPGA and the USB 3.0 sensor bridge reference design work together to convert the subLVDS video signal from the image sensor used in the module to a parallel format that can interface with the camera’s USB 3.0 controller.

ARM is continuing its support for China’s expanding IoT industry by providing a new cloud-enabled education kit for universities. The ARM IoT Education Kit will teach students how to use the ARM mbed IoT Device Platform, create smartphone apps and control connected devices such as a robot or a mini weather station to gather temperature, humidity and air pressure data.

Microsemi has announced a unique series of patented, ultra-low capacitance power Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) diode products. The devices provide protection of high speed data lines and other applications where the threat requirement’s magnitude greatly surpasses the capability of other typical low capacitance TVS devices for Ethernet protection and other data interfaces with speeds up to 500Mb/s.

igus has launched a stronger, more robust version of its twisterband rotary motion cable management system – twisterband HD. Developed to give operational and functional reliability to rotating applications that require mixed services, for example, power, data, air or fibre optics, with high loads and small installation space, twisterband HD supports up to 20 turns around its own axis.

The availability of Boundary Scan integration into SPEA’s multi-core ICT (In-Circuit-Test) platform has been announced by Goepel. With the level of integration provided for the SPEA3030 ICT, execution of interactive Boundary Scan tests is now possible on all cores of the ICT (up to four). This results in maximisation of parallelism and productivity.

Researchers at Monash University have designed a solar fuel generating device that has established arecord in energy efficiency for the production of solar fuels. The device can produce hydrogen fuel at 22% energy efficiency, breaking the previous record of 18%. Lead researcher Professor Leone Spiccia, School of Chemistry, Monash explained that the process of hydrolysis generates hydrogen and oxygen by passing an electric current through water.
