The availability of Nvidia’s Jetson Thor redefines what’s possible for humanoids and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) by fusing physical intelligence and real-time reasoning through robotics foundation ...

There is another analog compute-in-memory solution for math-heavy AI workloads, which is capacitor-based and achieves power efficiency above 40 TOPS/W. Analog AI accelerator startup EnCharge is ...

There is a lot of demand for the tiny speaker in smart glasses and smartwatches to be even smaller and lighter. However, the century-old micro-speakers built around a dynamic driver, coil, and ...

Ultrasonic time-of-flight (ToF) sensors come to rescue indoor sensors, which often fail to detect and avoid barriers like plexiglass walls, translucent doors, and glass windows. Here is how ToF ...

3D sensing—now widely used in autonomous driving, AR/VR, healthcare, industrial automation, robotics, and surveillance—employs depth sensing as a major building block to facilitate real-time object ...

What’s the sensing aspect of quantum technology, and what potential it promises within the quantum computing domain? How can engineers create production-ready quantum sensing products? Where do ...

You are undoubtedly familiar with those rubbery membrane keypads, formally called elastomeric keypads, which are often used in low-end remote controls as well as other applications. They offer many ...

We’re all familiar with static electricity and its many “appearances.” It can be an annoying spark when you walk across a rug; allow you to stick a balloon against a wall after rubbing it across your ...

Trying to troubleshoot a fault or malfunction in many of today’s consumer-electronic devices is a challenge. For nearly all portable products and many non-portable ones, this is due to several reasons ...

Is the system-on-chip (SoC) model that emerged in the semiconductor industry more than two decades ago seeping into the analog world? It seems like that when you take a closer look at onsemi’s ...

A new position sensor, aiming to simplify automotive brake pedal sensing, integrates two position-sensing ICs and a wake-up switch isolated in a single package. It can be powered directly by the 12-V ...

Two new chip capacitors upend to the 800-V bus voltage amid the arrival of electric vehicles (EVs) operating at this voltage. TDK has added these 900-V devices to its CeraLink capacitor series B58043: ...
