Google launches Flutter 1.0, a mobile UI toolkit for creating embedded graphic components for both iOS and Android

AMS is to create a camera 1mm across for space-constrained industrial and consumer designs, intending to add imaging to products such as smart toys and home appliances. Called NanEyeM, the business end is 1 x 1mm has a 100kpixel sensor with a 10bit digital readout. Inside is a multi-element lens, claimed to reduce distortion compared to similar cameras with a single-element ...

Mems oscillator from has announced devices that can achieve 5ppb (parts/billion) frequency accuracy, and shun both thermal variation and vibration. The devices are based on 100ppb parts released two years ago and, despite now including an oven, measure 7 x 9 x 6.5mm. The firm is aiming frequency provision in 5G infrastructure, where many mini-basestations will be spread across the ...

Image compression technology in the PowerVR PVRIC4 IP block enables random access, visually lossless image compression for bandwidth and memory savings for DTVs, smartphones and tablets, says Imagination Technologies. Claimed to halve memory bandwidth and footprint, the IP block targets SoC development for consumer applications to meet the needs of the higher resolution demanded by 4K and 8K displays, as ...

German research organisation Fraunhofer IMS has developed a platform-independentl feed-forward artificial neural network, written in C. “By using standard libraries based on the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) and a source code reduced to a minimum, even integration including learning algorithms on a microcontroller is possible,” said the organisation. “The artificial neural network is superficially not focused towards big-data processing, but ...

In a bid to advance AI and robotics, Arrow Electronics will offer Nvidia’s latest Jetson Xavier AI computer. The computer is designed to create autonomous machines in industrial settings. According to Nvidia, the collaboration with Arrow and its customer database will “open the door to the development and deployment of AI solutions for manufacturing, logistics, smart cities, healthcare and more”.  The Jetson Xavier ...

Bridgetek has introduced a series of entry-level development modules to support its BT815 and BT816 advanced graphics controller ICs which are being ramped into volume production. Supporting a range of different display configurations, the 54.1mm x 85.60mm VM816C modules each feature a BT816 device. Through these items, engineers will be able to utilise the functionality offered by the latest generation of ...
