The trials of legacy equipment in data-driven manufacturing
It’s entirely natural to want the latest and greatest technology. From consumer smartphones to industrial automation, research and development is constantly pushing technology towards the next big innovation. This need for progress drives the modern world, but it can leave businesses operating legacy technology in its wake. Here, Neil Ballinger, Head of EMEA at EU Automation, discusses the ups and downs of operating legacy technology in the...
Are touchscreens transforming our approach to healthcare?
The healthcare sector is constantly changing – and there is no time this has been truer than now. Touchscreens are a key part of how this change is occurring in the healthcare sector; here Zytronic has looked at some of the major ways touchscreen technology is impacting healthcare and discovered the following.
Unify LED Linear continuous lighting brings simplicity
Goodlight has launched Unify LED Linear, a continuous-row lighting system with pre-assembled trunking and click-in luminaires for the ultimate creative and functional lighting solution. Luminaires are fitted flexibly around a pre-wired multifunctional trunking base, to deliver lighting effects and can subsequently be re-positioned for supreme versatility.
Direct microwave synthesis DAC with 26GHz output bandwidth
Teledyne e2v is moving ever closer to its goal of bringing about a major overhaul of the signal chain - through the availability of its latest performance-redefining Digital-to-Analog Converters (DACs).
Stellar automotive MCUs for multiple applications
STMicroelectronics has revealed further details of its Stellar automotive microcontrollers (MCUs) to show how the devices ensure reliable and deterministic execution of multiple independent real-time applications.
XGS CMOS image sensors enhance industrial imaging
ON Semiconductor has expanded their XGS family of CMOS image sensors with high performance, low noise products that offer 12-bit image quality at a high frame rate. The new offerings include the XGS 45000, the XGS 30000 and the XGS 20000, which provide detailed imaging with up to 45 Mp for resolution critical applications and up to 60 fps in 8K video mode.
Wired or wireless: which is best for sensor deployment?
Taking sensor measurements from real world processes has always been fundamental in data acquisition systems. Some would even argue that defining the points to be measured was the starting point from which systems were defined, and ultimately dictated what the deployed systems could and could not do. By Paul O’Shaughnessy, Channel Sales manager, Advantech IIOT
AEC-Q200 qualified capacitors withstand THB testing
A new series of Automotive Grade DC-Link metallised polypropylene film capacitors optimised for high humidity environments has been introduced by Vishay Intertechnology.
The broken promises of plastic substitutes
From paper straws and cotton bags to paper composite drinks cartons and glass bottles, environmental concerns have driven several changes in the food and packaging industry, in recent years.Many of these shifts have emerged as a knee-jerk reaction to consumer anti-plastic sentiment, but these abrupt alterations are not as environmentally-sound as they might first appear. Here, Dr Ashlee Jahnke, Research Director ofbiodegradable bioplastics develo...
AR to usher in an era of interactive construction
There will be 3.5 billion augmented reality (AR) users by the year 2022, according to Digi-Capital. Construction is one of the many industries adopting this immersive technology, which is now changing the way that companies design, model and build. Here Ian Barnes, Head of Business at SITECH, discusses three ways that AR is creating an era of interactive construction.
