Six-dimensional force sensors are core components for humanoid robots to achieve precise force control, capable of measuring three force components in three-dimensional space (Fx/Fy/Fz) and three torque components (Mx/My/Mz), widely used in key parts such as robot wrists and ankles, aiding in achieving complex functions like gait balance and fine manipulation. According to data from … Read more
How do foldable smartphones sense folding force? How do smartwatches capture heart rate pulses? How do diabetic insoles provide early warnings for foot ulcers? The answer lies in flexible thin-film pressure sensors. Unlike traditional rigid sensors, these devices can be integrated into various fields such as daily life, healthcare, and automotive, making them key sensing … Read more
In underground coal mines, a highly toxic gas is silently spreading, while a group of loyal “electronic sentinels” vigilantly guards the safety of miners 24 hours a day. During the mining process,hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) is a dangerous gas that is highly toxic, flammable, and has a rotten egg smell, posing a significant threat to mining … Read more
Sensors are the bridge connecting the physical world with digital systems. They perceive environmental parameters (such as position, pressure, light, etc.) and convert them into processable electrical signals, supporting modern industrial automation control and intelligent decision-making. Below are the technical analyses of several core sensor types used in industrial automation: 1. Object Detection and Position … Read more
In the pursuit of reliability, “Three防” is a core indicator. However, when this term appears in both “rugged computers” and “industrial three防 computers,” there are essential differences in the meanings, implementation methods, and usage scenarios they express. Differences in “Three防” The “Three防” of rugged computers mainly targets climate and chemical corrosion, including salt mist, mold, … Read more
Click the blue text Follow us The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has proposed charging semiconductor patent fees based on “value” rather than a fixed fee, a proposal that has raised many questions. The USPTO has suggested that the application fee for semiconductor patents will no longer be a fixed amount, but will … Read more
Samsung Electro-Mechanics has sold out its semiconductor substrate inventory for two years. The capacity utilization rate of semiconductor packaging substrates continues to rise. With the sharp increase in demand during the era of artificial intelligence (AI), it is expected that within the next two years, the capacity for the next generation of substrates— Flip Chip … Read more
A counterintuitive data point reveals the golden three years for storage chips. Did you know? The HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) market, which was only $3 billion in 2023, is expected to skyrocket to $53 billion by 2027, a 17-fold increase that far exceeds AI computing chips! Even more surprisingly, DRAM prices have risen for six … Read more
The laser chip industry has made significant progress in recent years, particularly in the fields of communications, laser processing, beauty, and displays. Many domestic and international companies have begun to focus on the research and development and market of laser chips. Let’s take a look at the characteristics of companies from both domestic and international … Read more
The recent U.S. congressional hearing brought the “export control loopholes” and “China’s stockpiling of equipment” to the forefront: U.S. lawmakers and former officials emphasized that China still has shortcomings in the most advanced processes (such as EUV/3nm), while being wary of China’s ability to cut off the U.S.’s influence in the basic electronics market through … Read more
