    The HBK FUSION DAQ hardware provides all-round measurement for developing, qualifying and certifying new products.

  • APCON selects DPI engine from Rohde & Schwarz for intelligent traffic filtering in data center networks

    Real-time application awareness from R&S PACE 2 enables the IntellaView HyperEngine network visibility solution from APCON to address traffic visibility challenges while augmenting network performance and security.

  • Renesas unveils new automotive radar transceivers

    The new transceiver monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) is especially suited for imaging radar, long-range forward-looking radar and 4D radar.

  • Video: Building the world’s largest radio telescope

    Construction is now underway to erect the Square Kilometer Array, the world's largest radio telescope.

  • Stretching the utility of strain sensors for medical and industrial use

    A new stretchable strain sensor detects minute changes in strain with a greater range of motion than previous technologies.

  • Smart meat thermometer returns readings with "lightning" speed

    The smart meat thermometer can return temperature readings in just one second — reportedly the fastest response time on the market — and with pinpoint accuracy using a built-in thermocouple probe.

  • Video: Robot performs dental implant surgery with less pain, faster healing times for patients

    The precision and accuracy of the robot, according to its developers, was made possible thanks to haptic feedback, audio cues and intuitive visualization.

  • Shrinking the footprint of IR photodetectors

    A miniaturization process for infrared (IR) spectrometers based on a quantum dot photodetector can be integrated on a single chip.

  • Three-limbed bot designed for space tasks

    Ahead of a space-qualified iteration of MARM being developed, the researchers will test the MARM prototype in a physical simulator arrangement.

  • New gelatinous robot crawls in response to temperature changes

    Inspired by the inchworm, the robot is able to move according to the swelling and shrinking of the gel — and in the absence of batteries, wiring and external power of any kind.
