New VARAN uncrewed ground vehicle tackles missions where GPS fails
VARAN is capable of planning routes onboard without the need for an operator link, enabling it to resume missions even when GPS signals are unavailable or communications are disturbed.
-
The quantum communications revolution
Quantum communications networks are coming, but still face large technical and infrastructure hurdles before they’re widely adopted.
-
New radar system detects high-speed drones around ports and ships in harsh conditions
The IRIS OTM at Sea is an expansion of the company’s IRIS On-The-Move (OTM) capability and is designed to strengthen counter-UAS protection for shipping lanes, naval operations and coastal assets.
-
New US Army technology enables accurate engagement of drones during movement
The technology incorporates the U.S. Army’s “Gunslinger” fire-control technology with a Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station (CROWS), enabling ground vehicles to engage fast-moving aerial targets without hesitation.
-
New defense drone reaches 219 mph to intercept hostile targets
The K100XR interceptor can detect and engage target drones in real time, promising to one day replace the expensive missiles and other munitions currently used to down enemy unmanned aerial vehicles.
-
Lightweight 22 lb robot seeks to enhance bomb squad operations
According to its developers, the TOM 50 RE weighs just 22 lbs, which makes it easy to carry and to be operated by an individual soldier.
-
Altech E-Stops feature rugged construction and easy assembly
These pushbutton control devices come in 22- and 30-millimeter mounting sizes and are designed for easy assembly: installation typically requires only a screwdriver.
-
Enable precise movement in limited space using high-flex rg-58 SMA cable assemblies
These assemblies are ideal for automation, communication systems and radio frequency (RF) laboratory environments.
-
Laser fingerprints offer rapid device authentication
The KAUST team created a system that employs tiny laser devices to produce unique digital fingerprints.
-
IHI furthers its multi-sensor space constellation goals
The Japanese vendor signed a collaboration with Finnish hyperspectral satellite vendor Liva Space.
-
Samtec cable-to-cable interconnects support high-density AI architectures
The cable system balances density and performance with designated signal mapping and staggered row-to-row spacing, which reduces crosstalk.
-
Software-defined modular instruments
In a modular instrument, the host computer rather than the instrument itself stores user-defined software, which specifies the instrument's capabilities.
-
Challenges in testing the terahertz frontier
If a way to achieve a Tbit/s communication rate without using air interface technology is needed, THz communication is a great choice.
-
The industry’s smallest fixed attenuators
Housed in an ultra-compact two-lead, 1 mm × 1 mm quad flat no-lead (QFN) package, these attenuators enable significant PCB space savings for next-generation high-density designs.
-
Enhance high-frequency system performance with 2.92 mm cable assemblies on 0.141-inch conformable cable
These rugged 2.92 mm assemblies on 0.141-inch conformable cable deliver excellent mechanical stability and power handling up to 20 GHz.
-
Vishay Intertechnology standard-level 40 V MOSFETs prevent false triggering and reduce noise in motor control circuits
The high minimum gate-source threshold voltage of the devices prevents false MOSFET triggering induced by the gate in motor control circuits.
-
Surface mountable 5 mm glass fuse holders
These devices allow standard 5 mm x 20 mm glass cartridge fuses to be mounted directly onto the surface of a printed circuit board.
-
Broadband suppression of electromagnetic interference with high permeability
These nanocrystalline cores provide broadband suppression of conducted electromagnetic interference, high temperature stability and exceptionally high permeability.
-
New robotic gripper handles fragile items while lifting up to 55 lbs
Weighing roughly 4 pounds, the Mimic Hand M1 is capable of maintaining a steady cylindrical grip on payloads of more than 55 lbs.
