1+ week, 10+ hour ago  (419+ words) February 20, 2026 By RFrank In addition to improved performance from individual sensing technologies, including radar and light detection and ranging (LiDAR), other ongoing advances for sensor fusion are required for more complex advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and to achieve the highest…...

1+ week, 1+ day ago  (316+ words) February 19, 2026 By RFrank The size of a radar system, including its aperture (the antenna's opening that transmits and receives microwave energy), is directly related to its performance'larger apertures result in higher resolution. Different designs provide increased apertures. Existing medium-range radar…...

1+ week, 2+ day ago  (687+ words) These user-facing components at the heart of most remote controls have many technical subtleties. As a result, as I suspect is the case with many of you, I also have a collection of infrared (IR) remote controls. Some of them…...

1+ week, 2+ day ago  (354+ words) The wearable audio industry is undergoing a major transformation. While the market is booming, consumers want smaller, more integrated devices. MEMS (Micro-Electrical-Mechanical-Systems) speakers are at the center of this shift. MEMS are now enabling mainstream consumer electronics companies to rethink…...
