Foremost Electronics has been appointed as a distributor for Fibox, and kicked off the agreement by unveiling the new ARCA cabinet range which provides control systems with ultimate protection in demanding environments. ARCA cabinets are available in 14 different sizes form 300x200x150mm to 600x800x300mm and are simple to customise during system manufacture or on site, with no specialist tools required, leaving no possibility of rust on the worke...

Ophir Photonics Group has announced an update to its StarBright compact, feature-rich, handheld laser power/energy meter. Displaying measurements from picowatts to kilowatts and picojoule to hundreds of joules, StarBright measures power, single shot energy, repetitive energy, frequency and beam size with Ophir's wide range of thermal, pyroelectric and photodiode laser sensors.

The zigzag trajectory of knuckleballs through the air has bamboozled goalkeepers and batsmen the world over. Scientists have been puzzled too by these strange shots and pitches, which are delivered at relatively slow speeds with little or no spin and yet travel in such an unpredictable way.

A team of scientists from Oxford University has shown how the natural movement of bacteria could be harnessed to assemble and power microscopic 'windfarms' - or other human-made micromachines such as smartphone components. The study, published in the journal Science Advances, uses computer simulations to demonstrate that the chaotic swarming effect of dense active matter such as bacteria can be organised to turn cylindrical rotors and provide a s...

Experiments conducted under the leadership of a Stanford University School of Medicine investigator have succeeded, for the first time, in restoring multiple key aspects of vision in mammals.

Baltimore Ravens Offensive Lineman and published mathematician, John Urschel, is teaming up with Texas Instruments to explore the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) behind sports, in a new series of activities designed to inspire next-gen problem solvers and critical thinkers. STEM Behind Sports kicks off with Field Goal for the Win! a fun, free activity designed for the TI-84 Plus family of graphing calculators.

Imec Florida, a new entity focusing on photonics and high-speed electronics IC design based in Osceola, Florida has been announced by imec. Imec Florida kicked off with the signing of a collaboration agreement with the University of Central Florida (UCF), Osceola County and the International Consortium for Advanced Manufacturing Research (ICAMR), that is setting up fab facilities for the development and production of highly innovative III-V-on-si...

The Matrix MXE-5500 series, featuring 6th gen Intel Core i7/i5/i3 processors (code name Skylake), and delivering outstanding performance with robust construction, rich I/O, and easy device access, all in a compact package.

Technological wearables are becoming ever more common in society; starting from their humble beginnings with the Bluetooth headset, branching out to the more eclectic and fashionable, like pet wearables and the Apple watch. Though while wearable tech is becoming more diverse, from goggles to earpieces, there’s one anatomical location more suited for a hands-on approach to tech.

At the Cybathlon, 74 athletes from 25 countries will be showing how robotic technology helps them in their daily lives. In 100 days, the starting gun will be fired on the world’s first trial of bionic strength. The Swiss public broadcaster Schweizer Radio und Fernsehen (SRF) will incorporate the Cybathlon into a day of themed programming and broadcast the unique competition live.
