Look up the Auto Update Expiration date on Chrome OS devices you’re shopping for—or already own—to avoid security risks
Paris has long lagged behind its European peers for VC investment. Now, the city is flush with unicorns.
When a tiny piece of space junk cut a 5mm hole in the International Space Station’s (ISS) robotic arm last year, it came as little surprise. The near-Earth space environment has become so clogged with defunct orbiters and scraps of wreckage orbiting at up to eight times the speed of a bullet that NASA estimates half a million dangerous pieces of debris the size of a marble or larger (1cm plus) pose a constant threat to working satellites, whose number is growing rapidly as well.
TEWKSBURY, Mass., Feb. 28, 2022 — Avery Design Systems, a leader in functional verification solutions, today announced its PCI Express Verification IP (VIP) has been selected by Fungible Inc., a data center infrastructure company, to ensure compliance and connectivity of its Fungible Data Processing Unit (DPU). The Fungible DPU is an industry-first and addresses the most challenging requirements in hyperscale data centers running data-intensive applications and delivers radically improved performance and cost efficiencies.
Intrinsic ID, a provider of Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) security IP, has entered into a sales representative agreement with Jupiter Semi to market, sell and support Intrinsic ID’s products in China.
Machine learning algorithms have opened up a realm of possibilities to enable vision embedded in products that make our home, workspaces and the places in between safer and more efficient. To truly realize the potential of smart vision in more use cases, developers need more power-efficient, and more flexible embedded solutions that can operate on batteries, be easy to install and maintain, and still deliver the vision performance required to provide effective and intelligent sensing of the things we want to detect and monitor. New advances in ML modeling and processing hold the key to widespread adoption of smart cameras.
Have you thought about where your old devices — smartphones, laptops, watches — end up if you toss them in the trash? The landfill.
A report from the World Economic Forum finds the U.S. and Europe, alone, contribute to almost half of the 44.7 metric tons of e-waste generated around the world each year. Back Market, an e-commerce company, wants those devices diverted from the municipal dump and back in consumers’ hands as refurbished products.
Image sensors convert light into electrical signals. Scientific and industrial cameras used to rely on charged coupled device (CCD) detectors – and there still are areas in astronomy and scientific imaging where CCDs are used – but now most machine vision cameras will integrate a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) detector.
The semiconductor shortage has been bad news for consumers and all kinds of manufacturers, but it has been a clear boon for chip investors. Since the start of 2020, chip stocks are up 82%, easily beating the 54% gain for the Nasdaq Composite. Big names like Advanced Micro Devices and Nvidia have gotten much of the attention, but a little known chip maker has beat them all: San Jose, Calif.–based Synaptics.
What are hardware roots of trust, and why does your enterprise need them?
Securing the enterprise is more challenging than ever. The number and sophistication of attacks have grown exponentially, while the defenses against them have not.
