Ultraleap and Prophesee  have joined up to develop a system using event sensors and hand tracking in AR devices. The development utlises Ultraleap’s computer vision and ML models and Prophesee’s  GenX320 event-based Metavision sensors. Reducing power consumption enables an always-on AR device that can track user’s hand interactions natively for longer. The new Ultraleap models for event sensors are also ...

Quantum Power Transformation (QPT) has opened its first funding round on Crowdcube with a target of £500,000 and is eligible for EIS. Lead investor is GaN Systems founder Geoff Haynes (pictured). “There is an old saying invest in what you know,” says Haynes, “GaN has been my passion for decades and my frustration as it hit the brick wall of ...

Siemens Digital Industries Software is working with  sureCore and Semiwise to develop  cryogenic CMOS circuits capable of operating at temperatures near absolute zero required for quantum computing systems.. The key to unlocking the potential of quantum computing  lies in the availability of control electronics capable of operating at cryogenic temperatures. “The critical storage element and the bit cell must essentially ...

ONiO, the Norwegian energy-harvesting MCU specialist, and Epishine, the Swedish pioneer in printed organic solar cells, have partnered to deliver self-powered IoT devices – i.e 100% batteryless IoT devices that can eliminate the environmental effects of disposable batteries. ONiO’s MCUs are joining forces with Epishine’s indoor solar cells to create  sustainable devices that eliminate the need for battery replacement and ...

NXP’s  cloud-connected EasyEVSE EV charging station development platform provides hardware configuration instructions and example software to quickly set up a secure connection between a simulated electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) and a cloud-based application. The modular, scalable platform can be used as the foundation to start building differentiated EVSE systems that support device-to-cloud and cloud-to-device communications, accurate energy billing and ...

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has added Atlanta, Georgia and  Strafford County, New Hampshire to its patent outreach office network. The creation of the new offices is part of the Unleashing American Innovators Act of 2022 (UAIA). Selection of new regional offices is based on: The number of patent-intensive industries near the site. How many research-intensive institutions, including ...

Power Integrations is sampling a family of plug-and-play gate drivers for 62 mm  SiC MOSFET and silicon IGBT modules rated up to 1700 V, with enhanced protection features to ensure safe, reliable operation. SCALE-2 2SP0230T2x0 dual-channel gate drivers deploy short-circuit protection in less than two microseconds, protecting the compact SiC MOSFETs against damaging over-currents. The drivers include advanced active clamping ...
