Winding electromagnetic coils by hand is a slow and challenging process, especially when you're trying to achieve neat, consistent turns for motors or actuators. To solve this problem, creator BubsBuilds designed an open-source automated coil winding machine that can produce custom coils based on specific project requirements. Originally built to support the…

South Korea's Seoul Semiconductor is evaluating plans to establish a manufacturing facility in India, with discussions underway with multiple state governments, including Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Gujarat. The optoelectronics company is assessing possible sites as India sharpens its pitch to global electronics and semiconductor-linked manufacturers under the next phase of its chip and…

Raghu Vamsi Aerospace Group (RVAG), a Hyderabad-headquartered precision manufacturing and deep-tech company serving the aerospace, defence and energy sectors, announced on July 20, 2026, that it has raised $40 million, approximately ₹400 crore, in its latest funding round. The round was led by Norwest and Skegen Asset Management, with participation from Indus Bridge Ventures, GJNX Ventures and…

Researchers from the Pennsylvania State University have developed a paintable on-skin dry electrode that sticks comfortably to the skin and reads biological signals with impressive stability. Because the sensor starts as a liquid paint, it flows into the microscopic lines, wrinkles, and pores of your skin before it dries. This creates a perfect, seamless bond that…

BrainCo, a brain-computer interface company, unveiled a Brain-Controlled Robot AI Platform at the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) in Shanghai on July 17, 2026, according to the company. The platform allows users to direct a robot through neural signals picked up by a lightweight EEG headset, with AI algorithms decoding the signals to identify motor or control intent before…

Skyroot Aerospace launched Vikram-1 from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota on July 18, 2026, with the upper stage reaching its planned 450-kilometer low Earth orbit 15 minutes after liftoff. The mission, called Aagaman, made Skyroot the first Indian private company to place a rocket into orbit on its maiden attempt, putting India among a small group of nations alongside the United…

The Union Cabinet, chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, approved Semicon 2.0 on July 15, 2026, with a total budget outlay of ₹1,27,500 crore. Electronics and Information Technology Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said the program covers the entire value chain of the semiconductor ecosystem and rests on six pillars: chip design, manufacturing of machines and materials, fabrication plants,…

Ashok Tinkering Labs, based in Ahmedabad, India, is preparing to launch Soan Papdi, an FPGA development board aimed at beginners, on the crowdfunding platform Crowd Supply. According to the company, the board comes with onboard LEDs, switches, and GPIO headers, and is designed so users can begin digital design work without additional hardware setup. The listing states the project is currently…

Vimag Labs, a Bengaluru-based deep-tech startup, secured its fifth Indian patent on July 8 for an electric motor that operates without rare-earth permanent magnets, according to multiple industry reports. The patent, titled "A Robust Rotating Transformer Excited Synchronous Motor and Its Control," covers the core architecture of the company's Virtual Magnet Synchronous Motor (VMSM) platform,…

Munich, Germany – 15 July 2026 – Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) introduces the RIC70115, a radiation-hardened (rad hard) gallium nitride (GaN) high-electron mobility transistor (HEMT) driver designed for satellite and high-reliability space applications where power conversion performance and long-term operational integrity are critical requirements. The RIC70115 supports…

Long before today's advanced motion capture systems became commonplace, Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) developed an ingenious hardware solution known as the Dinosaur Input Device (DID) for Jurassic Park. Instead of animating dinosaurs frame by frame with a mouse, animators manipulated a physical dinosaur puppet embedded with magnetic rotary encoders at every…

We've seen drones that fly and underwater robots that swim, but combining both into a single machine has remained a major engineering challenge. Researchers at MIT's Department of Mechanical Engineering have now developed a bio-inspired robotic bird capable of flying through the air, diving into water, swimming beneath the surface, and taking off again. Inspired by…
