  • Exploring transfer learning for deep learning applications

    Transfer learning is the process of applying knowledge gained from solving one problem to another problem that is related but distinct.

  • Yokogawa provides remote operation/monitoring system and video monitoring solution for Japan's largest wind farm

    The remote operation and monitoring system includes a video system for the monitoring of all the offshore and onshore wind power generating facilities at this wind farm.

  • Device allows for real-time tracking of the cold chain

    The new device allows for real-time tracking of perishable shipments by providing temperature, humidity, light, shock and location data.

  • Online platform brings satellite-captured ET data down to Earth

    Researchers conducted a multi-model, large-scale accuracy assessment of an operational satellite-based data system to compute evapotranspiration (ET).

  • HENSOLDT launches its new Cockpit Voice and Flight Data Recorder (CVFDR)

    Sensor solution provider HENSOLDT has launched its new product dubbed the Cockpit Voice and Flight Data Recorder (CVFDR).

  • Team trains robot to read braille at double the speed of humans

    The team created machine learning algorithms to teach the robotic sensor to swiftly slide over lines of braille text, reading at an estimated 315 words per minute with roughly 90% accuracy.

  • Social robots engaging patients at Paris hospital

    The Heriot-Watt University's National Robotarium Socially Assistive Robots in Gerontological Healthcare (SPRING) trial was conducted at the Assistance Publique Hôpitaux de Paris.

  • This fuel cell draws clean power from dirt

    The design harnesses naturally occurring soil microbes to generate electricity and power sensors to monitor soil moisture.

  • Personal AC on industrial vehicles is a safety essential, not a luxury

    The Cabin Cool system directs cool air onto vehicle operators without limiting their movement, disturbing their line of or otherwise interfering with their normal activities.

  • Data acquisition recorder line expanded with new modular solution

    B&K Precision, a manufacturer of test and measurement instruments, has announced the expansion of its Data Acquisition Recorder line with its DAS1800.

  • This robot toasts marshmallows, folds clothes and dances

    MagicBot is being eyed for assorted applications including search and rescue missions, sports, entertainment, industrial automation, logistics, transportation and more.

  • A plant-wearable monitors pesticide levels on surfaces of fruit, vegetables

    The plant-wearable is composed of cellulose acetate, which is an ingredient derived from wood pulp, making it a sustainable alternative that has little impact on the environment and that disintegrates entirely in 340 days or less.

  • Taking comfort in companion bots

    Follow along with GlobalSpec as we examine some of the most recent companion bot iterations.

  • Slimline swiveling-rotary modules for large workpieces

    These modules offer an efficient and space-saving solution for typical movement sequences that occur in handling and assembly technology, such as turning, swiveling, screwing, rolling or coiling.

  • CO2Meter multi-sensor safety alarm adds oxygen capabilities

    The oxygen sensing solutions are designed to meet safety standards for cold storage applications and more.

  • New IKO cam followers allow mounting freedom in tight spaces

    A unique mounting structure solves space limitations that often exist on the stud side of the assembly region.

  • This monocycle robot rolls, balances on 2 tiny legs

    The monocycle robot prototype can reportedly move entirely without a human, thereby potentially paving the way for the development of a driverless mode of transportation in future cities.

  • Video: Final flight for the Mars Ingenuity Helicopter

    The mission of the first aircraft to fly on another planet ended on January 18, 2024.

  • Non-intrusive load monitoring for smart homes

    Such monitoring makes it possible to track energy consumption without resorting to more intrusive measures that involve installing numerous sensors on individual appliances or devices.

  • Paving the way for sustainable AI innovations of the future

    Artificial intelligence (AI) is the transformative technology of our time. Here, we look at how Infineon enables, powers and uses AI for the benefit of all.
