The incorporation of touch as a sensing modality for robots may lead to more reliable manipulation skills. Currently, the tactile sensors available are far from ideal because they are flat or have an exceptionally narrow field of sensitivity. This means they transmit very low-resolution signals. OmniTact is a multi-directional high-resolution tactile sensor that has been…

A team of nanoengineers at the University of California San Diego recently developed a safety feature that keeps lithium metal batteries from overheating and catching fire in the case of an internal short circuit. A small tweak was made to a distinct battery part known as the separator. The component works as a barrier between…

The engineers at the University of California, Riverside, recently published a study that discusses the damaging effects of fast-charging on electric car batteries. According to the team’s research, fast-charging stations subject electric car batteries to high resistance and temperatures that may cause leakage, cracks, and lower storage capacity. The research team — led by Mihri…

Analog Devices‘ new AD-FMCLIDAR1-EBZ is an FMC compatible modular hardware platform for LIDAR prototyping. It offers flexibility to simplify the complexities of LIDAR development, meet individual design needs, and narrow down the time to market. The platform has an open-source software framework that can integrate into customer designs and wrappers for Python and MATLAB. Additionally,…

A team of MIT researchers has reported success in using a soft robotic arm that “understands” its configuration in three-dimensional space. To do so, the robot leverages position and motion data from its own “sensorized” skin. Soft robots are recommended as more resilient, adaptable, safer, and bio-inspired alternatives to more conventional rigid robots. The soft…

IBASE Technology Inc. recently unveiled its MAF800 industrial-grade AI computer series. The new product line is ideal for factory and machine vision automation facilities that use automation for deep-learning based defect inspection and shop floor processes. Typically, such facilities either use VGR (Vision-Guided Robotics) or AOI (Automated Optical Inspection) for such purposes. Features A compact…

Schneider Electric, a global specialist in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, announced the expansion of the PowerLogic ION9000 series power meter range with the PowerLogic ION9000T. Based on the PowerLogic platform, the new ION9000T adds high-speed transient capture capabilities, helping critical facilities avoid outages, equipment damage, failures, and interruption of operations. Originating…

Intel took a massive lead in network transformation by announcing a sweeping set of hardware and software products for 5G networks. The highlight: the new Intel Atom P5900, a 10nm System-on-Chip (SoC) for typical wireless base stations. “As the industry makes the transition to 5G, we continue to see network infrastructure as the most significant…

Electronics are now part of our everyday portables and used in phones, iPads, and laptops. They’re also becoming something we wear, such as those wearable health trackers and watches. However, to some extent, the capabilities of such wearables has been limited by battery. Larger, stronger batteries would be required to do more. However, bigger batteries…

Intel Labs recently released a research paper at the 2020 International Solid-State Circuits Conference in San Francisco, which discusses the major technical aspects of Intel’s new cryogenic quantum control chip, Horse Ridge. Horse Ridge offers impressive technical capabilities, essentially taking care of all of the issues that pertain to the design of a powerful quantum…

Renesas Electronics Corporation, a supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, recently announced the industry’s first single-chip synchronous buck and low dropout (LDO) regulator targeting low-power FPGAs, DDR memory and other digital loads for spaceflight payload applications. The ISL70005SEH is the only point-of-load (POL) power solution that reduces size, weight, and power (SWaP) by integrating a synch…

A team of researchers from United College London and the Chinese Academy of Sciences recently had an interesting breakthrough. They were able to come up with a bendable graphene supercapacitor that charges at an extremely quick speed and securely stores high volumes of energy. The new supercapacitor is definitely worthy of its name. It has…

A team of MIT engineers recently developed a process that may become the key to stretchable electronics. They finally found a way to get over the rigidity of computer chips located in the core of all electronic devices. The aim is to make flexible, more multi-functional electronic devices. The new process is known as “remote…

A team of engineers from the University of New South Wales, Australia recently found a new way to create more stable quantum chips. It is done by increasing the stability of artificially produced atoms over silicon chips. This results in the production of more consistent quantum qubits or bits. The new research takes roots in…

Arm recently announced significant additions to its artificial intelligence (AI) platform, including new machine learning (ML) IP, the Arm Cortex-M55 processor and Arm Ethos-U55 NPU, the industry’s first microNPU (Neural Processing Unit) for Cortex-M, designed to deliver a combined 480x leap in ML performance to microcontrollers.
