Find the latest electronics industry news covering new electronics components releases in various electronics domains such as embedded, power electronics, analog, digital, IoT and Automotive industries.
Researchers have reportedly created a low-cost biosensor at Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS), Hyderabad campus. Their biosensor is said to cost only ₹15 to make. What it offers is a way to detect health markers without needles, bypassing traditional blood tests. In a span of five minutes, it can detect chemical compounds called metabolites from blood, sweat, urine, and cells.…
China’s National University of Defence Technology (NUDT) created a mosquito-sized drone, roughly 1.3 centimeters long, tailored for stealth tasks like intelligence gathering for the military. The tiny size makes for easy camouflage in any environment, allowing it to remain close to invisible in covert missions. The drone has insect-like wings that flap to mimic natural movement.

Infineon has introduced its radiation-tolerant memory portfolio. These are important for space use, specifically in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) missions. LEO satellites are closer to Earth, where the severity of radiation is less, and hence these COTS components offer cost-effective and time-efficient solutions.
The current release includes three types of memory chips: F-RAM (Ferroelectric…
Rob Grenier became paralyzed after a car accident in 2022. He very recently received a Neuralink brain implant in June 2025 and shared this captivating experience on X, calling it “absolutely amazing”. He was able to move a cursor and play video games using only mental commands.
The technology fundamentally is a small implantable chip that’s designed to form a direct communication path…
YouTuber soiboi soft upgraded his robot modelled after a salamander. The project is bio-inspired, copying designs and behaviors from the amphibian. The robot uses soft actuators and rolling diaphragms, making it flexible and allowing for clean and natural movements. The diaphragm pumps and solenoid valves controlled by an Arduino make up the electrofluidic system.
The legs are inspired…
Nordic Semiconductor is acquiring Neuton.AI’s core technology and IP. Neuton.AI specializes in automating Tiny ML processes, making it easy for non-experts to build AI models. Nordic plans to integrate Neuton.AI’s platform with its own nRF54 Series chips. These are chips that use very little power, with popularity among battery-operated devices. The combination should allow for smarter devices…
Researchers from MIT and elsewhere have developed a new way to combine two types of chips: gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon-based CMOS chips into a single chip. The solution is cheaper, scalable, and more energy-efficient. Gallium nitride chips are not cheap or easy to work with, but they are faster and better at handling power. Silicon chips, on the other hand, are cheap and common but lack…
Max Imagination has published the making of a DIY spherical robot that moves by rolling inside a transparent plastic ball. It’s meant to entertain pets, explore tight spaces, and be driven via smartphone, like an FPV drone that rolls on the floor. The project uses an XIAO ESP32S3 Sense from Seeed Studio, which includes Wi-Fi, a 2MP camera, a mic, and a microSD slot.
Two geared motors…
Cadence and Samsung Foundry have entered a new multi-year agreement, continuing their current collaboration. The partnership is directed towards developing AI-driven chip design solutions for AI data centers, automotive technologies, and next-gen wireless/RF connectivity. Cadence is to provide memory and interface IP for Samsung’s advanced chip manufacturing processes: SF4X, SF5A, and SF2P.…
Cyient Semiconductors and MIPS have announced a strategic collaboration to develop ASIC and ASSP solutions using MIPS Atlas processor IP. They aim to deliver domain-optimized solutions for automotive, industrial, and data center applications. The companies believe that their collaboration will allow for the development of next-gen semiconductor solutions that use embedded intelligence, real-…
A maker built a real-life transformer robot that switches from a car to a robot, just like in the movies. The build is designed for someone to ride, much like a toy car. The robot uses Gimson Robotics 99.5:1 gearhead motors with additional 3D-printed two-stage gear reductions. Six motor assemblies power all leg joints.
It uses AS5047 magnetic encoders to track joint positions, allowing…
A deeptech startup, Leumas, has raised $2.2 million in seed funding to expand its modular robotic manufacturing systems for the pharmaceutical and wellness industries. The company was founded in 2016 by Subhajit Biswas and Nitesh K and is headquartered in Bengaluru. The system uses AI, robotics, and vision-based quality control to enable flexible, traceable, on-demand production. Its…
