The startup company Byland develops automatic watering systems for green outdoor spaces, planters, and urban green facilities. Their solution combines rainwater collection with plant watering. Read how Byland made their watering solution smarter by integrating IoT sensors so that their customers easily can monitor and plan their watering activities.

Denmark has a proud tradition within space electronics and is experiencing an increased focus on new space and nanosatellites, which can be sent in orbit around the earth. The tendency is that nanosatellites will be built at speeds never imagined before, should be inexpensive, and at least twice as reliable as previous iterations. This is a serious challenge that calls for extreme test.

How do you standardise technology that is constantly evolving? This report gives a good overview of what is happening in the field of standardisation, e.g. within IoT, cyber security, EMC, drones, metrology, and acustics. Read, for example, how legal interpretation of texts has had the effect that 151 published standards only has led to 5 harmonised and ratified standards.

If we are going to be independent of fossil fuels in the future, the amount of green energy has to be substantially enhanced. Wind energy will be an important contributor. However, noise restrictions for land wind turbines put a limit to the amount of energy, that can be produced. The DecoWind project will investigate noise from wind turbines and develop modulation tools for global use so that more energy can be produced without generating more noise.

When electronic equipment is to be used in areas with a high risk of earthquakes, the equipment's resistance to earthquakes must also be taken into account. In this short article, we summarise the most important conditions to consider in earthquake testing.

Automotive and industrial applications typically require stringent testing to ensure
semiconductor and IC thermal behavior and reliability at wider operating temperature
ranges. To mee this need DELTA Microelectronics, the European leader in complete ASIC manufacturing and supply chain solutions, has expanded its semiconductor test services to include extremely high and low operating temperature testing.
