Meet Arduino Opta – the secure, versatile micro PLC built to make industrial and building automation smarter, simpler, and more accessible.

STMicroelectronics’ IIS2DULPX industrial MEMS accelerometer combines machine learning, power saving, and capability to operate at high-temperature, facilitating intensive sensorisation for smarter, data-driven operations and decision making in asset tracking, robotics, and factory automation, as well as industrial-safety equipment and healthcare devices.

Sculpteo announces the launch of PA12 Blue food grade, an innovative plastic material designed to meet the requirements of industrial environments where hygiene, traceability, and safety are priorities.

TDK introduces the stray-field robust Micronas HAL/HAR 35xy* 2D Hall-effect position sensor family for automotive and industrial applications. Building on the success of the HAL/HAR 39xy series, the new sensors offer enhanced features and capabilities to meet the growing demand for stray-field robust 2D position detection in linear and angular applications.

Moxa has announced the launch of its next-generation 64-bit Arm-based computers UC-3400A and UC-4400A Series featuring industry-leading dual-wireless, 5G/LTE and Wi-Fi 6, connectivity.

We are still miles away from truly autonomous robots that are able to navigate through a complex and changing environment. New approaches using artificial intelligence may help to translate this idea into reality to some extent. At the University of Klagenfurt, Jan Steinbrener is experimenting with drones that attempt to do just that.

The FORTEC Group has announced the launch of the SBCPRO-X51, a 3.5” single board computer engineered at our FORTEC branch in Germany to deliver powerful, efficient computing in demanding industrial and IoT environments.

The use of imaging technology in industrial inspection has changed substantially over the years. Traditionally, manual inspection dominated quality control, which meant manufacturers were relying heavily on human effort to assess product defects, misalignments, or other issues.

NVIDIA has introduced a significant performance upgrade for its Jetson Orin Nano and Jetson Orin NX System-on-Modules (SoMs). With the latest software update, additional performance reserves are unlocked, providing developers with new possibilities. Syslogic’s rugged embedded computers also benefit from this advancement.

According to the International Energy Agency, industrial energy consumption makes up nearly one-third of global energy demand.
