An experienced embedded systems developer Sergey Antonovich has developed a business card that integrates a Linux operating system with a functional drum kit interface. The design is based on an F1C100s system-on-chip running Linux and incorporates touch-sensitive pads using the TTP229 sensor. A USB Type-C connector supplies power while a standard headphone jack…
VinFast, the Vietnamese electric vehicle manufacturer is set to begin operations in India as its new plant in Thoothukudi nears completion. According to industry sources, 90 percent of the plant construction is complete and production is expected to start within the next two to three months. This development positions Thoothukudi as Tamil Nadu’s fourth major…
Mural is a DIY wall-drawing machine that uses markers to create wall designs. The creator wanted a cheaper wall plotter that could turn walls into canvases. So, he built Mural as an open-source project that costs less than $100 and is easy for anyone to make and use. Mural runs on an ESP32 microcontroller with Nema 17 stepper motors, a servo motor for pen movement, and a USB-C power delivery…
India’s semiconductor ecosystem is poised for significant growth following a series of initiatives announced by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology. The government is working closely with over 300 organizations including 250 academic institutions and 65 start-ups to create a robust infrastructure for chip design. These efforts form part of the…
A YouTuber has shared his latest project, Legion Mark I, a robot that can both crawl like an insect and drive like a car. It’s powered by an Arduino Nano for movement control and an ESP32-CAM for live video streaming. The robot moves using 12 servo motors for crawling and four DC-geared motors for wheeled movement, all managed by a 16-channel PWM servo driver and an…
Squirrels are incredible at jumping and balancing, effortlessly landing on the narrowest of branches. Squirrel’s that level of control is pretty impressive, and researchers wanted to see if they could teach a robot to do the same. That's how researchers came up with Salto.
Salto is a small, one-legged robot developed by a team of biologists and engineers at UC Berkeley. This robot…
Semiconductor Laboratory (SCL) of Chandigarh organized a handover ceremony for the first production lots of two 32-bit microprocessors designed for space applications. The event was attended by Dr. V. Narayanan, Secretary and Chairman of ISRO and Shri S. Krishnan, Secretary of MeitY. Developed in collaboration between Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC) and SCL, the…
u-blox, a global leader in positioning and wireless communication technologies has signed an agreement to transfer its cellular IoT module business to Trasna, a semiconductor and IoT solutions provider. In this transaction, u-blox will transfer its cellular module technology. This transfer includes intellectual property, workforce, sites and product portfolio. The…
A YouTuber has shared his Plasma Portal project, a high-voltage electrical engineering demonstration that combines a Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) driver circuit, a custom flyback transformer, and a 3D-printed frame to generate plasma arcs. The ZVS circuit, built using IRFP260 MOSFETs, resistors, diodes, and capacitors, efficiently oscillates current through the…
German semiconductor firm Infineon Technologies is set to double its India workforce by 2030, focusing on research and development rather than manufacturing. Currently employing 2500 professionals in India, the company plans to increase its headcount to 5000. Chief Marketing Officer Andreas Urschitz confirmed the initiative during a media roundtable, emphasizing that…
NVIDIA has unveiled Isaac GR00T N1, the world’s first open humanoid robot foundation model, designed to bring advanced reasoning and general skills to robots. This fully customisable model aims to accelerate the development of humanoid robots capable of performing various tasks in industries facing labour shortages. Alongside GR00T N1, NVIDIA introduced new simulation frameworks and synthetic…
