ETN

The second ETNdigi special magazine of 2024 has been published. Once again the magazine is a solid package of information about electronics. The topics cover artificial intelligence, low-power microcontrollers, precise real-time positioning and much more. You can read the magazine for free.

The new ETNdigi magazine explores the latest innovations in electronics, with a particular focus on embedded systems and emerging artificial intelligence. The issue highlights, for instance, the role of the LUMI supercomputer in the development of AI models in Finland. Alongside news coverage, the magazine features several in-depth articles diving into various technologies.

At the ECF24 conference, discussions centered around new embedded solutions such as COM modules and single-board computers, which accelerate product development and comply with new EU regulations. These modules enable faster design processes and enhance cost-efficiency.

With the introduction of the EU’s AI legislation, the use of biometrics, such as facial recognition, in surveillance is expected to become more widespread. The new regulations aim to ensure that surveillance systems are secure and functional, paving the way for potential real-time recognition capabilities in Finland in the near future.

The magazine also delves into the electrification of the aviation industry, focusing on how traditional hydraulic systems are being replaced by electric power management solutions. This shift is part of a broader transition towards a greener and more efficient future for aviation. Electric actuators offer significant advantages, such as reduced weight and higher efficiency, helping the aviation sector meet stricter environmental standards while improving aircraft performance. This development aligns with the global effort to reduce carbon emissions.

Additionally, the issue covers innovative solutions for automotive safety, such as SiTime’s new Chorus Automotive clock system, which provides an integrated safety solution for vehicle timing systems. This technology enhances vehicle safety, particularly in applications involving autonomous driving.

Healthcare transformations are also featured, with a special emphasis on remote monitoring. Wireless and real-time remote patient monitoring enables continuous tracking of vital signs, revolutionizing patient care and leading to better treatment outcomes.
