Companies are increasingly using the internet and AI to create new retail experiences, discovers Caroline Hayes. Shoppers are already familiar with using the internet to help them navigate a store or direct them to special offers. Retailers also use the internet to keep the shelves stocked and deliver goods to customers. The next step is to use edge computing, image ...

With the SensorShield-EVK-003, ROHM is offering a new sensor shield with eight sensor boards

BMP388 is a digital barometric pressure and temperature sensor from Bosch. The 24-bit device measures from 300hPa to 1250hPa, while consuming 3.4 µA at 1Hz “It features a best-in-class temperature coefficient offset between 20 and 65°C, the BMP388 delivers accurate altitude measurement over a broad temperature range,” said Mouser, which is stocking the device, and foresees it being used for altitude ...

Imec and Arm have developed a new ultralow-power radio for IoT applications which combines Imec’s latest transceiver frontend, operating from a nominal supply as low as 0.8V, with Arm’s qualified and silicon-proven Cordio Bluetooth low energy 5 digital baseband. Designed for IoT applications demanding very low power consumption, such as leave-behind sensors or wearables, the solution demonstrates industry compatibility of these ...

A software-only change to the Bluetooth specification could add distance measuring with 30cm accuracy, according to Belgian research lab Imec.

Panasonic believes the growth of IoT will depend on two wireless technologies, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, writes Pascal Meier.

A multi-band RF front-end allows coverace of sixteen LTE bands from a single tranceiver, acording to Swiss module maker U-blox, “which can vastly simplify diverse deployments worldwide”, it said. Called SARA-R410M-02B, and part of a family (see below), it also has software-based configuration within a single version of firmware, allowing LTE bands to be enabled or disabled based on changing ...

Arm has added the highest level of physical security to a Cortex-Mx processor yet, to create the Cortex-M35P. Protection is included against invasive attacks (based on chip de-packaging), and non-invasive attacks like power and electromagnetic side-channel monitoring. The aim is to bring “smartcard levels of security to emerging applications such as smart metering, door locks and automotive”, said Arm v-p of ...
