DragonFly 2020 is a 3D printer that can print PCBs, including flexies, from Israel-based Nano Dimension. Due to be available later this year, the printer uses a combination of nano-particle conductive and dielectric inks and can print multi-layer PCBs. Most recently, it filed a patent on a way of printing conductors with printed shields to cut …

Cloud-based FPGA design is the focus of a tie-up between Xilinx and IBM. IBM’s cloud service will host the Xilinx SDAccel development environment which will allow developers to describe their algorithms in OpenCL, C, and C++  and then compile directly to Xilinx FPGA-based acceleration boards. This is an open access cloud service, called SuperVessel,  which can …

Xilinx and IBM put big data FPGA design in the cloud

Nvidia is suing Qualcomm in London for killing Icera – the Bristol wireless start-up bought by Nvidia for $352 million. Four years after buying Icera, Nvidia closed it down. Nvidia alleges that the Icera closure was brought about by Qualcomm’s illegal practices which amounted to an abuse of a dominant market position. Qualcomm’s practices led, …

The poor wretched IoT didn’t need this. Hardly out of its pram, the struggling infant has taken a kicking from Google. Google subsidiary Nest has pulled support for its Revolv home hub and, in so doing, has caused a media hoo-ha of considerable proportions. That’s because the Revolv hub doesn’t work without continuing Google support. …

IoT Gets A Kicking

Leti, the French semiconductor tech centre, is working with ARaymondlife, a device manufacturer for the IVD industry, to develop medical devices, especially in the field of microfluidic cartridge analysis. The aim is to create portable bio-med systems which can reduced the cost of sample analysis. Leti CEO Marie Semeria, writes: “This partnership combines our competencies …

You can now select from two additional deployment policies, immutable and rolling with additional batch, when deploying application code using AWS Elastic Beanstalk. This is in addition to the two existing deployment policies that Elastic Beanstalk currently supports (i.e. rolling, all at once). You can now select one of these four deployment policies when updating your applications. Elastic Beanstalk also lets you perform DNS-based blue/green updates in addition to the four deployment policies.

AWS IoT is now available in the EU (Frankfurt) region.
