The new RE2 embedded computer: High performance, very low power demand and a minimal footprint
The RE2 board from Blue Chip Technology represents a significant advance in embedded computing. It leads the new wave of ARM Cortex A8 embedded computers, due to its OMAP 3 processing core which also integrates a C64x up to 520 MHz DSP. This architecture gives the RE2 the market edge in performance per watt, and a compact design optimised for graphics and computationally intensive tasks.
A Mine of (Noise) Information
Managing environmental impact, whilst growing operations and keeping down costs, is one of the mining industry's key concerns. As public perception of exceeded noise levels can lead to complaints, Bruel & Kjaer has created its Noise Sentinel Mining system, which enables mine operators to meet the challenge of expanding their projects, but keep within acceptable noise limits - often defined as only 5 dB above background levels.
Undervoltage Release switch for operator safety
UP1 – 2-pole appliance switch with built-in undervoltage trip release prevents uncontrolled restarts under conditions of intense voltage drops or with temporary losses of voltage
Movea Sees Success with Miniaturised 9-axis Inertial Measurement Unit
Movea has created a wireless, miniaturised, Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) that uses MEMS sensors to accurately measure 9 Degree-of-Freedom (DOF) motion with a PCB module that is about the size of a small wristwatch. The MotionPod is a patented hardware solution for motion sensing that incorporates a 3-axis accelerometer, a 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis magnetometer in fully integrated package complete with software and wireless interface. The...
