5G test tools fly on drone-based network coverage
Test and measurement specialist Rohde & Schwarz has supplied mobile network testing tools used in drone-based network coverage, performance and operation tests managed by Ericsson. The procedure enables 3D accessibility, positional accuracy and repeatability of the testing.
How are drones transforming mining operations?
Percepto will be presenting at Smart Mining 2.0, to share how mining operations around the world are harnessing its multi-mission Drone-in-a-Box (DIB) solution to improve monitoring, inspection, security, safety and compliance. The event which focuses on transformational technologies in the mining sector takes place in Toronto on 19th to 20th September.
Meeting the demand for vehicular protection against hostile drones
Addressing the increasing demand for protection of vehicles and convoys against hostile drones, Elbit Systems is introducing ReDrone Vehicular Tactical System, a vehicular configuration of the company’s operational anti-drone protection and neutralisation system.
DSEI 2019: RAF selects Leonardo for anti-drone programme
At the DSEI 2019 exhibition, Leonardo announced that it has been selected by the UK’s Royal Air Force (RAF) to support the next stage of their research and development programme. The study will explore the current threat posed by hostile drones and how this is likely to evolve in future, as well as evaluating a range of technologies that could form a future RAF counter-drone capability.
eGan FET wins AEC Q101 qualification
EPC has been achieved successful AEC Q101 qualification of its 15V EPC2216 eGaN FET. It is designed for lidar applications where increased accuracy is vital such as in self-driving cars and other time-of-flight (TOF) applications including facial recognition, warehouse automation, drones and mapping.
Key considerations when it comes to designing security devices
In 1880 the first movie cameras were developed by Thomas Edison and William Dickson. The seed for video surveillance had been planted.During World War 2, miniature portable cameras appeared, making covert surveillance possible for the military.Shortly after, Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) was first used in Germany to monitor the launch of V2 rockets.And the rest, as they say, is history.But the history of surveillance is far from over.
Adding high-performing motor drivers to MikroElektronika Fusion boards
STMicroelectronics has collaborated with MikroElektronika, an authorised ST Partner, to create four Click boards that extend the advantages of STSPIN motor drivers beyond STM32-based designs to users of MikroElektronika prototyping boards, as well as other systems containing a mikroBUS socket.
