The factors that need to be considered when selecting a touch solution, and how haptic feedback may be changing the user interface. By Tom Houston, Aito.

Designed to streamline the creation of “user experience” (UX) designs for physical user interfaces based on SEP touch technology, the UX Design Studio development tool has been released by Aito. The software is aimed at both product designers, concerned with the operation and response of touch controls, and the embedded hardware and software engineers who will implement the design.

Future Electronics has added to the development boards on its FTM Board Club website. The latest offering is the capacitive sensing evaluation kit from Cypress Semiconductor now available free to design engineers.The CY3280-MBR3 CapSense MBR3 Evaluation Kit helps designers to evaluate the third generation of Cypress Semiconductor’s capacitive-sensing technology. It can be used to develop CapSense button designs, and to implement proximity s...

A recent report from IDTechEx, "Unmanned Aerial Vehicles: Electric UAVs 2014-2024", has been tracking changes in the market, none quicker than the adoption of pure electric quadcopters. The starting point for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles is rarely military; it is at the other extreme with toy helicopters and predating professional UAV helicopters and so on.

Mouser Electronics is shipping the Freescale Semiconductor’s Freedom Development Platform for Xtrinsic Sensors. This small Arduino‑compatible development board from is a cost-effective platform for evaluating Freescale's digital gyroscope, accelerometer, magnetometer, and position sensors.

A series of easy-to-use,Arduino-compatible, development platforms has been introduced by FTDI Chip.The VM800P series (where P signifies PLUS) furnishes engineers with everything necessary to implement more effective HMIs – including not only display, audio and touch elements, but data processing aspects too.

Conrad Business Supplies is working exclusively with Berlin based start-up company relayr (iThings4U GmbH) to support the development and launch of the innovative and groundbreaking Open Source ‘Internet of Things’ (IoT) starter kit known as ‘WunderBar’ that was launched in March this year.

Future Electronics is making the new range of STM32 Nucleo prototyping boards from STMicroelectronics available free via its FTM Board Club website for design engineers. The Nucleo boards are compatible with ARM’s mbed application development platform. They also include ST Morpho extension headers to allow access to all of the microcontroller’s on-chip peripherals, and Arduino headers which accept shields from the extensive Arduino ec...

Farnell element14 and Atmel have launched the SAMA5D3 Xplained evaluation kit, a low-cost fast prototyping and evaluation platform for microprocessor-based design. The board, which is based on Atmel’s SAMA5D3 ARM Cortex-A5 processor-based MPU, comes with a rich set of ready-to-use connectivity and storage peripherals, along with Arduino shield-compatible expansion headers for easy customisation.
