Researchers have created a Self-Powered Bionic Droplet Electronic Skin (DES) that enhances how robots interact with liquids. This new technology mimics human skin, offering better perception and control.
Traditional electronic skins struggle to detect liquid movement accurately, making it challenging in environments like military operations, rescue missions, and industries. The…
PocketPD is a tiny USB programable power supply created by Vincent Nguyen, along with Martin Axelsen and Ryan Trissel. The PocketPD is designed to be an ultra-portable bench power supply, utilising the power delivery standard. As we know most of our devices support power delivery, and this standard enables us to use the very same charger for all of our devices. Because of this, we don…
A new technology has emerged, drawing inspiration from biological organisms that adapt through self-amputation and regeneration, like lizards. This innovation allows robots to shed limbs and fuse together, offering unprecedented adaptability and survival capabilities. Inspired by creatures like lizards and crabs, these robots can self-amputate their limbs to escape entrapment. Similarly,…
Infineon Technologies AG has introduced its new PSOC™ Control microcontroller (MCU) series, engineered for cutting-edge motor control and power conversion applications across diverse sectors including home appliances, power tools, renewable energy, industrial drives, and lighting. Featuring the Arm® Cortex®-M33 core, the PSOC Control MCUs offer enhanced on-board…

Microchip Technology has launched the dsPIC33A Core family of Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs), designed for complex embedded control algorithms in motor control, power supply, charging, and sensing systems. Featuring a 32-bit CPU with a 200 MHz speed, the dsPIC33A includes a Double-Precision Floating-Point Unit and DSP instructions for precise real-time control.…
Qualcomm will remain the leader in automotive connectivity, capturing about half of the market by the end of this decade, while MediaTek will gain share in the near-term with its early mover advantage in automotive 5G RedCap chipsets.
The global automotive connectivity module and chipset market is projected to grow at a 13% CAGR…
Adam Wilk, creator of the Zerowriter—a Raspberry Pi Zero-based e-ink typewriter—has launched a Crowd Supply campaign for an upgraded version called Zerowriter Ink. This campaign, in collaboration with Soldered Electronics, introduces an open-source e-paper word processor featuring a low-profile mechanical keyboard and an Inkplate 5 display. With enhanced readability and extended battery life,…
SMIC achieved No. 3 spot in Q1 2024 foundry revenue, driven by China’s demand recovery in CIS, PMIC, IoT, and DDIC applications.
The global foundry industry’s revenue declined about 5% QoQ but grew 12% YoY in Q1 2024, claims global researchers. The sequential decline in the industry revenue in Q1 2024 was not solely due to seasonal…
