Encryption techniques protect cloud-based machine learning
A novel encryption method devised by MIT researchers secures data used in online neural networks, without dramatically slowing their runtimes. This approach holds promise for using cloud-based neural networks for medical-image analysis and other applications that use sensitive data.Outsourcing machine learning is a rising trend in industry.
Transcranial stimulation for OCD cleared in US
The FDA has permitted marketing of the Brainsway Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation System for treatment of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD).“Transcranial magnetic stimulation has shown its potential to help patients suffering from depression and headaches,” said Carlos Peña, Ph.D., M.S., director of the Division of Neurological and Physical Medicine Devices in the FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health.
World's first 4D printing for ceramics
A research team at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has achieved a ground-breaking advancement in materials research by successfully developing the world's first-ever 4D printing for ceramics, which are mechanically robust and can have complex shapes. This could turn a new page in the structural application of ceramics.Ceramic has a high melting point, so it is difficult to use conventional laser printing to make ceramics.
Mobile robots put manufacturing on the move
An Autonomously Guided Vehicle (AGV) equipped with a robot arm has been developed by Mitsubishi Electric and Mirage, making it possible to deploy the same robot at multiple workstations. The system has been designed to give flexibility to assembly lines and boost plant productivity.
10kW 3-phase 3-level grid tie inverter reference design
This verified reference design provides an overview on how to implement a three-level three-phase SiC based DC/AC grid-tie inverter stage. Higher switching frequency of 50KHzreduces the size of magnetics for the filter design and enables higher power density. The use of SiC MOSFETs with switching loss ensures higher DC bus voltages of up to 1000V and lower switching losses with a peak efficiency of 99%. This design is configurable to work as a tw...
Shielding and filtering are not independent of one another
In this article, Keith Armstrong, FIEE/IET, Senior MIEEE, ACGI, EurIng(Gp1), on behalf of EMC Standards, outlines some of the issues he has encountered after having been asked to fix EMC problems, and how designers can learn to ensure that filtering and shielding are compatible.
POL regulators support wide array of functions
Power by Linear LTM46xx µModule power products from Analog Devices, are a series of point-of-load (POL) regulators designed to reduce solution size and deliver reliable power circuit performance. The LTM46xx µModule regulators support step-down (buck), step-up (boost), and step-down and step-up (buck-boost) conversion with a wide array of function and feature combinations.
Parker Solar Probe will fly into The Sun’s atmosphere
NASA has launched a bold mission to fly directly into the sun’s atmosphere, with a spacecraft named the Parker Solar Probe, after solar astrophysicist Eugene Parker. The incredibly resilient vessel, vaguely shaped like a lightbulb the size of a small car, was launched early in yesterday morning from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Its trajectory will aim straight for the sun, where the probe will come closer to the solar surfac...
The robust transformer in a connector
The new M12 Magnetics from HARTING is an industrial connector which combines a robust transformer and an RJ45 Ethernet socket in an IP65/67 protected unit containing all the necessary components that would otherwise have take up extra space on the circuit board, all in the same size socket as before.
Strategic pan-European partnership with Advanced Energy
Acal BFi has further enhanced its power portfolio to include high-voltage solutions in a new strategic partnership with Advanced Energy. The agreement between the two technology leaders provides customers across Europe with access to Advanced Energy’s (AE) full portfolio – including the high-voltage UltraVolt and HiTek Power product lines – with direct customer technical support from Acal BFi’s expert engineers.
