Graduation of the charter class of engineers in its Path to Programmable training program has been announced by element14.com. The program, sponsored by Avnet and Xilinx was designed to accelerate the adoption of programmable logic devices in electronic hardware design.

Specialised Imaging’s Lightweight Optical Motion Analysis (LOMA) system has been used to optically track an aircraft for several kilometres while simultaneously capturing the thermal signature of the aircraft over the same distance.

In 2018, only robotic vehicles could claim to possess in-car AI. The associated computing market, driven by computers equivalent to what is found in datacenters and associated with rather low volumes, brought the computing market to $156m in 2018. Over the next ten years, with the development of robo-taxis and shuttles, this market will remain the main revenue generator for AI in automotive.

The Swarm Technology are not just any ordinary unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). They fly together. Better still, they swarm together, for any Star Trek fans out there. They can also team up with a manned aircraft and act like a force multiplier. This kind of unmanned aircraft can bring significant improvements to almost every area of national and homeland security, from enhanced surveillance to missile defence.

For years, the only way scientist had to monitor the health of wild whales, was to get as close as possible on a boat, hold out a pole, and hope that they managed to snag a sample as the whale shot spray out of it’s blowhole. However, thanks to advancements in technology, this cumbersome and invasive method is being replaced, as scientists have successfully deployed drones to gather samples.

For decades, autonomous vehicles have been heralded as a new technology that could change the way we live our lives. ‘Driverless: Who is in control?’ is opening on 12th June 2019 at the Science Museum will explore how close we are to living in a world driven by thinking machines.

Cypress has introduced a USB-C Power Delivery solution designed to reduce the e-waste resulting from the estimated one million tons of power adapters produced per year1. The EZ-PD Barrel Connector Replacement (BCR) solution has the potential to replace the myriad of barrel connectors used in power adapters that consumers are currently burdened by. It can also replace all legacy USB micro-B connectors that provide only 7.5W, which is not nearly en...

Supplier of high performance sensor solutions, ams, has introduced the AS6500, a new high-resolution time-to-digital converter (TDC) featuring CMOS inputs and compact packaging for use in space- and cost-constrained applications. TDCs from ams can measure time intervals as short as five nanoseconds with 10ps precision.

High precision positioning, low power wide area (LPWA), short range mesh networks, and edge intelligence promise to extend the range of applications for the IoT in the food sector and beyond. If data is a primary driver of industrial digitalisation, the technologies used to gather, transmit, store, and process it are its key enablers.This is also true in the food sector.

The next generation of innovators met TeenTech patron HRH The Duke of York KG at Buckingham Palace to share their bold inventions, designed to make life ‘better, simpler, safer or more fun’ using the power of science and technology. Ideas include drones to detect and absorb pollutants, an app that calculates a safe way home from school and a suitcase that provides everything for the stressed commuter, with room for clothes, a workspac...
