Why Anti-Tamper Sensors Matter: Delivering A Comprehensive Security Solution


If your device processes valuable data, controls a critical function, or connects to a wider network, it’s a target. Attackers don’t just try to break software; they increasingly physically tamper with hardware: probing, fault injecting, or opening enclosures to bypass protections and extract secrets. The consequences range from IP theft and fraud to orchestrated downtime across fleets ... » read more

Unlocking The Potential Of Ultra-Wideband Radar Technology


Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a short-range wireless communication technology that was once intended for military applications. In 2002, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) exempted its license and made it available for public use. Since then, UWB technology has evolved over time, transforming the way devices interact by offering secure ranging and precision sensing capabilities. With... » read more

Research Bits: June 24


In-sensor visual processing Researchers from the University of Massachusetts Amherst created silicon-based in-sensor visual processing arrays that can both capture and process visual data in the analog domain to reduce the latency between sensing and identification. The team created two integrated arrays of gate-tunable silicon photodetectors that share bipolar analog output and low-power o... » read more

Next Level Inductive Sensing For New Metallic, Waterproof And Robust HMI Touch Designs


The need for advanced and improved human machine interfaces (HMIs) is increasing due to increasing digitalization trends including Industry 4.0, the Internet of Things (IoT), the Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT), and more.

New Package Solutions for Automotive Optical Sensors


This article introduces the development of a new optical ball grid array (OBGA) packaging platform designed for automotive applications, with a focus on platform development and compliance with the Automotive Electronics Council (AEC) AEC-Q100 Grade 2 reliability standard. The proposed packaging solution extends beyond traditional cavity OBGA packages, which have been primarily utilized for mic... » read more

Research Bits: May 20


Smart t-shirt with sound waves Researchers at ETH Zurich developed a smart textile that uses acoustic waves passed through glass fibers to measure touch, pressure, and movement. The researchers said that using acoustic waves rather than electronics makes measurements more precise with low power consumption and the textiles lighter, more breathable, and easier to wash. It also uses readily avai... » read more

Overview Of Printed And Flexible Electronics: Technology Fundamentals, Design And Practical Applications

Abstract "Printed and flexible electronics (PFE) have emerged as the ubiquitous solution for application domains at the extreme edge, where the demands for low manufacturing and operational cos... » read more

Wearable Connectivity, AI Enable New Use Cases


The sensing and processing technology used in smart phones, watches, and rings is starting to be being deployed in a wide variety of wearable devices, ranging from those that fill the gap between sports and med tech, to haptic devices to assist the visually impaired and AR/VR glasses. Emerging applications include payment, building, and factory wearables. Most of these devices process signal... » read more

Med Tech Morphs Into Consumer Wearables


Doctors have been using advanced technology for years, but the growing trend is for consumers to use devices at home and have direct access to their data. Watches and rings that were once primarily used for counting steps or registering sleep patterns can now read blood pressure, heart rate, blood oxygen, body temperature, and other early signs of illness. Meanwhile, various patches are under d... » read more
