Smaller and more energy-efficient electronic chips could be made using molybdenite. EPFL's Laboratory of Nanoscale Electronics and Structures (LANES) published a study showing that this material has distinct advantages over traditional silicon ...
Computer engineers at North Carolina State University have developed hardware that allows programs to operate more efficiently by significantly boosting the speed at which the ‘cores’ on a computer chip communicate with each other. The core, or...
In what could only be described as ‘fervent scientist madness’, researchers at Georgia Tech have developed a transistor with excellent stability and performance for use on plastic electronics. In addition, it can be manufactured at relatively low tem...
Researchers have invented a technique that uses inexpensive paper to make ‘microfluidic’ devices for rapid medical diagnostics and chemical analysis. Current lab-on-a-chip technology is relatively expensive because chips must be specifically designed...
Taiwan-based handset ODM Compal Communications recently unveiled Robii, its first smart robot designed to accompany children aged 5-10, for sale under its own brand UrRobot, according to the company. Robii integrates image/voice recognition, sensors ...
The world of computing is in transition. As chips become smaller and faster, they dissipate more heat, which is energy that is entirely wasted. By some estimates the difference between the amount of energy required to carry out a computation an...
Semiconductor Research Corporation and researchers from Stanford University have developed a novel combination of elements that yields a unique nanostructure material for packaging. This advance should allow longer life for semiconductor device...
Bonjour, Vous cherchez comment réduire le coût de votre système embarqué utilisant un module Bluetooth certifié ? Les modules RN4870 / RN4871 (BLE) ou RN4678 (DUAL MODE) permettent d'implementer rapidement une solution bluetooth grace à leu...
The quantum computers of tomorrow might use photons to move data according to NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology). The new NIST papers address one of the many challenges to a practical quantum computer: the need for a device that pr...
United Microelectronics Corporation has recently announced that the company has produced customer Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) sensor products, with volume production scheduled for this year. As MEMS sensor applications become increasingly...
Later this year, Hewlett-Packard researchers say, they expect to deliver to the U.S. Army a working prototype of what they're calling a "*** Tracy wristwatch" — a lightweight, wearable device that soldiers in the field can use to view digital ...
One hundred years after superconductivity was first observed in 1911, a research team from Oxford, Germany and Japan observed conclusive signatures of superconductivity after hitting a non-superconductor with a strong burst of laser light. The materi...
Quantum applications, from cryptography to computation, all benefit from the use of entangled particles, (photons.) Creating and manipulating these photons is generally pretty straightforward, but storing them is not, which makes the issue of p...
British defense tech firm BAE Systems is developing an active ‘e-camouflage’ system that will employ a form of electronic ink to project imagery of a vehicles surrounding terrain, rendering the vehicle somewhat invisible to potential attackers....
A few unassuming drops of liquid locked in a very precise game of “follow the leader” could one day be found in mobile phone cameras, medical imaging equipment, implantable drug delivery devices, and even implantable eye lenses. Researchers at ...
It was only a matter of time before science and alcohol were combined to create something great. Who knew that drinking and finding new ways to create superconductors would go hand-in-hand? It turns out a Japanese scientist took the time to con...
Bi-focals have been around since the dawn of mankind and haven’t changed much since they were invented by Benjamin Franklin. However a company called PixelOptics has gone ahead and re-invented them with state of the art technology. Their new em...
Bonjour, Vous êtes possesseur d'une carte EXPLORER16 ? Vous vous demandez à quoi sert le connecteur USB inutilisé ??? Ces 2 liens montrent comment : 1/ Programmer le PIC18F4550/LF4550 qui se trouve sur la carte EXPLORER16 pour int...
The Embedded Systems Conference, along with chowder (pronounced chow-dah) and Fenway Park, is one of the better reasons for visiting Boston. Traditionally the first day of the show is reserved for half-day tutorials and the main block of conference ...
ARM MCU should have an external parallel bus interface to be connected to the graphics controller.Please visit http://www.colibrigraphics.com/ to see a list of ARMs with this peripheral.
Looking for faster & free embedded GUI design ? The Graphics Display Designer tool enables graphical design of the user interface and generates C code which can be directly compiled into libray calls using the free Microchip compilers.Code c...
Free Epson S1D13781 Configuration Utility generates an initial code for the graphics controller. It can be downloaded from http://www.colibrigraphics.com
