electronica 2016 saw the launch of u-blox’s SARA-N2 Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) module, which the company claims is the world’s first cellular radio module compliant to the 3GPP Release 13, Narrowband IoT (LTE Cat. NB1) standard.

MTA presents atElectronica 2016 its full range of dashboards and control units developed with MTA Studio, a softwaretool that allows customers to easily customise the units.Today the range includes the Spot, Quik and Quik Plus, Revo and Revo Plus dashboards, whosedifferent display sizes, dimensions, shapes and specifications meet many requirements of vehiclemanufacturers.

Tyre pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) are now available to customers in the agricultural sector via a joint partnership between agriculture and groundcare specialist, Spaldings, and tyre pressure monitoring specialist, TyrePal. The TPMS can be attached to tractor or trailer tyres to help farmers increase safety, as well as reduce down-time and the risk of an expensive tyre blow out.

If you’ve ever splattered paint on a canvas or sprayed a cookie sheet with oil, you likely created — aside from a minor mess — a shower of droplets, ranging from dime-sized splotches to pencil-point specks.Such droplet sizes may seem random, but now engineers at MIT can predict a liquid’s droplet size distribution, including the likelihood of producing very big and very small droplets, based on one main property: the liqui...

Now available in a 12-pole version, the recently introduced HEC (Harsh Environment Connector) from Binder is known as series 696, and the HEC connector is protected to IP68, IP69k, and can withstand high-pressure washing.The connector also has resistance to UV, temperature fluctuations, acid rain, salt spray, ozone and other pollutants.

Nick Lethaby, IoT Ecosystem and TI-RTOS Product Manager, Texas Instruments (TI), discusses the challenge of achieving energy efficiency and power management in future applications for IoT nodes.

Wastewater treatment plants across the United States may one day turn ordinary sewage into biocrude oil, thanks to new research at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.The technology, hydrothermal liquefaction, mimics the geological conditions Earth uses to create crude oil, using high pressure and temperature to achieve in minutes something that takes Mother Nature millions of years.

A global distribution agreement signed by Digi-Key and SPEC Sensors covers a range of ultra-low-power sensors. SPEC Sensors specialises in low profile, ultra-low-power gas sensors that enable the integration of high performance gas sensing.

Increasing its stock of Hurco machining centres to seven, toolmaking and subcontract CNC machining manufacturer DSM-NE, Newton Aycliffe is including a large 3-axis model and an even bigger 5-axis machine, the company’s first, which was installed in October last year (2015).

Relying on many different technologies, the farming and agriculture sector will become increasingly technical as it strives to increase productivity and meet the demands of a growing world population. Distributing electrical power around farms brings some special requirements, which enclosure manufacturer Spelsberg is well equipped to address.
