The Heart Rate 4 click board from MikroElektronika is now in stock at Mouser Electronics. It measures the oxygen saturation in a person’s blood through pulse oximetry. The click board incorporates the Maxim MAX30101 pulse oximeter and heart-rate sensor.

Robots generally need a gripper that adapts to three-dimensional surfaces. Such a gripper needs to be soft to adapt to a great variety of geometries, but not too soft, as it will detach easily and not be able to bear weight for very long. Researchers working with Metin Sitti at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart developed a membrane equipped with microscopic fibres inspired by the fine hairs on a gecko's foot and attach...

4D Systems has announced the launch of the gen4 CAPE series of TFT LCD display capes designed specifically for use with the BeagleBone Black single board computer. The series comprises 4.3, 5.0 and 7.0" models, each equipped with a 30-pin robust FPC cable that plugs into the supplied gen4 CAPE adapter board.

Microchip has announced a Digitally-Enhanced Power Analogue (DEPA) buck controller for DC/DC power conversion which offers more flexibility than any other analogue control architecture on the market today. The single-chip MCP19122/3 solution controls DC/DC converters and is capable of accepting a high-voltage input up to 42V while simultaneously regulating a wide output voltage range of 0.3V to 16V without any external components or drivers.
