Safer landings promised

UAV Navigation has enhanced the internal algorithms of its autopilot during the landing phase to include differential braking control of the undercarriage for fixed-wing UAVs.

Platform One

Iterative ECUs tester

NI has created a unified test system architecture that allows engineers to move iteratively between data replay and hardware-in-the-loop (HiL) testing.

Platform One

Navigation by neural net

Researchers in Belgium have developed the first UAV navigation architecture to fuse an event-based camera and a frequency modulated continuous wave radar.

Listening out for sirens

Microphones from Infineon Technologies are being used to detect the sirens of emergency vehicles to ensure that autonomous cars move out of their way.

Platform One

SDR resists interference

Atlas has developed a software-defined radio (SDR) module for UAVs with a reliable anti-interference mode. The 3W radio module supports frequency hopping as a key part of the anti-jamming algorithm in UAVs. It measures 31 x 37 x 4 mm and weighs only 7 g.

‘SuperGPS’ for urban roads

Researchers have developed an alternative positioning system using mobile phone networks and an atomic clock that is more robust and accurate than satnav in urban settings.

Wi-fi loophole warning

Researchers in Canada have developed a UAV that can use wi-fi signals to see through walls. The device, nicknamed Wi-Peep, can fly near a building and identify and locate all the wi-fi-enabled devices inside it in a matter of seconds.
