With increasing use of the IoT in healthcare and medical applications, the internet of medical things is emerging to operate alongside the IoT in logistics, industry and consumer products, says Tomohide Yamazaki. The internet of medical things (IoMT) market is expected to grow significantly in the future, rising from $113bn in 2021 to reach $341.17bn by 2028, according to Global ...
DigiKey is launching Season 1 of its MedTech Beyond Video Series, produced in conjunction with NXP Semiconductors and Recom Power. The distributor’s latest series – it has also covered automation, Smart Cities and supply chains, for example – explores the evolving landscape of medical devices. “As healthcare needs and technology both rapidly advance, DigiKey is proud to support the needed ...
The European Space Agency (ESA) has awarded Tyvak International a €4.5 million ($4.7 million) contract for a “proximity operations and in-orbit servicing mission” that will deploy a nanosatellite spacecraft from Space Rider. This is the planned European uncrewed robotic laboratory. Tyvak – specifically, the Italian corporate entity of the organisation – will be the prime contractor for the project that ...
Rocket Factory Augsburg (RFA), the Bavarian rocket company, has announced a partnership with Yuri and ATMOS Space for the launch of ‘Eva’, an end-to-end service for microgravity life science research and product development. ATMOS Space Cargo develops reusable and modular return space capsules designed for scientific payloads, experiments, and equipment, while Yuri develops modular bioreactors and incubators to be used, ...
CUI Devices has announced a line of medical buzzers compliant with IEC 60601-1-8 alarm signal requirements. There are four CPIM-4410-80x buzzers, with a letter replacing the ‘x’ depending on function: C for the cardiovascular tone, T for the general tone, V for the ventilation tone and Y for the oxygen tone. Each has a stand-by (silent) mode and three alarm ...
Kontron has released an ATX server-class motherboard designed to bring Intel’s 4th and 5th generation Xeon scalable processors to embedded applications. Called K9051-C741, it has Intel’s C741 chipset, and an LGA4677 socket for processors up to 350W. DDR5 RDIMM memory is supported up to 768Gbyte and 5600Mtransfer/s. 10G Ethernet is supported through two RJ45 ports and there are six SATA ...
Nexperia has announced a series of 500mA dual bipolar transistors that include base resistors within the 2 x 2 x 0.65mm package – there is a choice of SOT1118 (DFN2020-6) or AEC-Q101 automotive qualified versions in SOT1118D (DFN2020D-6) with wettable flanks. There are 12 devices, giving every combination of: package, NPN+NPN, NPN+PNP or PNP+PNP pairing and 1 or 2.2kΩ series ...
XP Power has created a family of PCB mount ac-dc power modules for BF (body floating) medical applications such as surgical, patient treatment, patient monitoring and dental equipment. Named MCE, there are four types of single-output PSU in the family: 3W MCE03, 10W MCE10, 20W MCE20 and 40W MCE40. “All the units are specifically designed for medical applications and carry ...
ODU has introduced high-voltage variants into its medical connector range. Medi-Snap High Voltage are designed for “transmission of high pulse and continuous voltages together with simultaneous provision of high pulse currents and sensitive signals in a compact design”, according to the company. “Both pure high-voltage connectors and combinations of up to 5kV peak together with signals in a hybrid configuration ...
Compact embedded AI technologies are creating new possibilities for medical device manufacturers, says Peter Marek. The advent of big data, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) has enabled medical researchers to gain deep insights by analysing vast amounts of patient data. These insights can help doctors to take better decisions, diagnose more precisely and treat patients with fewer side ...
