Article #3 of Innovations in Electric and Autonomous Vehicles Series: 3GPP intends to use 5G in vehicle-to-everything (V2X) applications with significant advantages over current dedicated short-range communication or other cellular-V2X proposals.
Article #1 of Innovations in Electric and Autonomous Vehicles Series: With so much emphasis on electrification, advancements in autonomous driving seem to have taken a backseat. Let’s take a look at the changes required to reach the point where cars drive around without needing any manual intervention.
While babies have a natural mechanism for alerting their parents that they need a diaper change, a new sensor developed by researchers at Penn State could help workers in daycares, hospitals and other settings provide more immediate care to their charges.
PCB Panelization is a PCB manufacturing technique. It involves the grouping of several small printed circuit boards to form a single array, which is known as a panel. Panelization is commonly employed in PCB manufacturing because it saves time and cost. This article discusses the conditions, design considerations, methods, types, and benefits of PCB panelization.
