FUJITSU Components has developed a super-small and powerful wireless module based upon the Nordic Semiconductor nRF52 SoC. FUJITSU, well known as a major IT company, has developed its expertise in wireless communication over years. This has resulted in top class modules for wireless communication.

Fujitsu has announced the addition of an expert consulting service for the use of AI technology at design and manufacturing sites to its MONOZUKURI Total Support Solutions, which support customer manufacturing. This service will be available in Japan starting October 2016. As its platform, the service will use the MONOZUKURI AI Framework to systemise functions for incorporating AI into manufacturing locations.

A field trial carried out by Fujitsu, in partnership with Intel, is visualising manufacturing processes at Shimane Fujitsu, which primarily manufactures notebook PCs. The field trial linked the FUJITSU Cloud Service IoT Platform with the Intel IoT Gateway.

A technology that has been developed by Fujitsu Laboratories that can rapidly analyse damage status after a cyber attack has been detected on a specific organisation.

Fujitsu Laboratories announced that it has developed a portable breath sensor that can extract and quickly measure the concentration of only specified gas components, such as ammonia, that are included at low concentrations in people's breath and are suggested to be correlated with lifestyle diseases. This sensor makes it easy to identify molecules that previously could only be identified using large analysis instruments.

Fujitsu Laboratories announced that it has developed a technology that generates synthesised 3D panoramic screens to fully understand conditions throughout a worksite for on-site maintenance, inspection and other work. Using time series images taken from a worker-side camera, when combined with augmented reality (AR) technology, remotely supporting operators can use that image to provide precise, omnidirectional instructions to field workers.

Fujitsu Laboratories and Fujitsu R&D Centre has announced the development of a software platform that enables the centralised and stable management of operating status for a variety of sensors, devices and gateways, as well as the condition of the network that connects them.

Expanding its D3313-S Mini-ITX board family, Fujitsu has announced that sixth version of the board is equipped with a powerful Quadcore SoC with 2.4GHz. The D3313-S6 is particularly suitable for use with graphics-intensive applications, for example in the field of digital signage and medical technology. As an industrial motherboard the product is designed for 24/7 continuous operation and an extended temperature range from 0 to +60°C.

Acting as a Global Value Added Distribution Partner since January 1, 2016, Fujitsu Electronics Europe (FEEU) announces the extension of its line card portfolio by FPGA Boards and FPGA Mezzanine Cards (FMCs) from the Japanese company Tokyo Electron Device (TED). Typical FPGA applications include hardware simulation, support and tooling for design, testing and debugging purposes as well as complex high-performance systems featuring multiple interfa...

Fujitsu is launching the 'industry’s first' Quad SPI FRAM product MB85RQ4ML, offering an ultra high speed and compact nonvolatile memory solution for networking, industry computing and HMI applications. MB85RQ4ML incorporates 4Mbit FRAM (Ferroelectric Random Access Memory) and Quad SPI interface.

Fujitsu Laboratories and Fujitsu Laboratories of America have announced development of the world's first encryption technology that can match IDs or attribute values in information sources, such as classified or private data from multiple organisations, that are encrypted with different keys, without decrypting the information.

For customers with a need for very small systems, Fujitsu introduces two industrial boards of the Skylake family at the Embedded World from February 23rd to 25th 2016. In Hall 2 at booth 110, the company presents the D3433-S and the D3434-S. Both models support the 6th generation of Intel Core processors and feature powerful DDR4 memory, which can be upgraded up to 32 GB.

Tokyo Institute of Technology and Fujitsu Laboratories has announced that, in an effort to further enlarge the capacity of wireless equipment, they have developed a CMOS wireless transceiver chip that can process signals at high speeds with little loss across a broad range of frequencies, from 72 to 100GHz. They also developed technology to modularise it.

Fujitsu Laboratories and Socionext have announced that they have developed the world's lowest power-consuming transceiver circuit that achieves communications speeds of 56Gbps per channel. Compared to previous levels, this essentially doubles the speed of data transfers between semiconductor chips, used in servers and switches and optical modules.

Fujitsu Limited and Fujitsu Laboratories have announced the development of a GaN High-Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) power amplifier for use in W-band (75-110GHz) transmissions. This can be used in a high-capacity wireless network with coverage over a radius of several kilometers.

Fujitsu has transformed its European semiconductor business into a distribution business. Fujitsu Electronics Europe (FEEU) has been trading as a global distributor since the beginning of 2016. Previously doing business as Fujitsu Semiconductor Europe (FSEU), the company now operates from offices in Langen (near Frankfurt), Munich, Milan, Budapest and Istanbul after changing its name and realigning its strategy.

Fujitsu Laboratories has succeeded in the real-time detection of early signs of storm sewer system overflows during torrential downpours, thereby obtaining data for effective analyses. The data was collected in a sensing system field trial initiated in July 2015 with the City of Koriyama in Japan's Fukushima Prefecture.
