The new release extends the market-unique tool’s capability to enable on-device learning of AI models for anomaly detection inside intelligent sensors. Designers can now use NanoEdge AI Studio to distribute inference workloads across […]
Multi-range pressure sensor for sleep apnea devices
Superior Sensor Technology introduced a new dual low-pressure sensor product series for continuous PAP (CPAP), bi-level PAP (BiPAP) and automatic PAP (APAP) products used for sleep apnea and other breathing sleep disorders. The CP Series is the industry’s first dual, multi-range pressure sensor that integrates a differential pressure sensor and a gage pressure sensor into one solution. […]
From the smallest housed camera with C-mount over 10GigE to AI
From precise monitoring to picking and automation, there are countless applications that benefit from reliable image information. However, what can be done when there is only a tight budget for the realization of such an application? With the introduction of uEye XCP, uEye XLE, and Ensenso S, camera specialist IDS proves that industrial-grade image processing […]
How to design an effective telehealth system
By Marcel Consée, Mouser Electronics Healthcare can be deeply personal, and direct contact between patients and medical personnel remains vital. However, taking the relationship between doctors and nurses out of the equation can sometimes make sense. Medical crises such as the global COVID-19 pandemic accelerate the adoption of telehealth methods, even though the original idea […]
Reliable detection of multipacks
The new dynamic reference diffuse sensor DRT25C.R from Leuze detects various film-wrapped bottles and cans fault-free. It uses the conveyor as a reference, and because the detection does not rely on objects, no adjustments are required when changing products. Leuze is expanding its range of dynamic reference diffuse sensors with the DRT 25C.R container sensor. […]
