Mobile eyes and ears on modern battlefields
The advancement of military technology in the past 20 years has reshaped the battlefield. From unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for aerial surveillance and air strikes to unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) for remote reconnaissance, modern warfare is seemingly shifting from primarily ‘boots on the ground’ operations to battlefields being dominated remotely. Here, Martin Frederiksen, Managing Director of land defence embedded system specia...
Ensuring robust networks in demanding applications
Whether used for on-board entertainment on trains or video feed transmission from military drones, connectivity is becoming an important factor in non-commercial applications. As more embedded systems adopt networked architectures, Ethernet switches play an increasingly crucial role. Here, Mark Jeffrey, Technical Director ofRecab UK, explains how to select Ethernet switches for demanding operating environments.
Deterministic Ethernet in military front lines
In military and defence applications, speed is crucial. Whether that is the response time of deployed soldiers or the speed at which information is communicated from the field to outposts or command centres. This is wheredeterministic Ethernet comes into play.
The growing importance of Ethernet switches
Whether you refer to it as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) or simply as industrial networking, there is no doubt that connected field systems are becoming increasingly valuable across industries. One of the main components underpinning this connectivity is the Ethernet switch. Once exclusively used in IT environments, these switches now find themselves commonly used in harsh rail, marine, industrial and military environments. Here, Marti...
Improved microendoscope brings cervical cancer into focus
Rice University researchers have added a clever spin—a rotating grating that removes out-of-focus light—to a cutting-edge, minimally invasive fibre-optic microscope that lets oncologists and surgeonszoom in on cancer tumors prior to surgery.The research is published online in the Early Edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
High-speed 3D surface profiling
The new MPLS180 sensor from Armstrong Optical Ltd of Northampton is now available allowing the fast, high-resolution 3D scanning of surfaces for all types of applications - ranging from wrinkles on skin to complete, populated, printed circuit boards.
