The flexibility of Automotive Ethernet makes the simple twisted-pair network technology ideal for an ever-increasing range of in-vehicle networks. The new IEEE 10BASE-T1S standard expands the range of applications supported by Automotive Ethernet to include integrating simple devices into the network. With the first compliance test solution available for testing device-compliance to 10BASE-T1S, Rohde & Schwarz continues to lead the way as the test and measurement supplier for automotive Ethernet standards.
It is an inevitable must for the Dutch government to rapidly start adjusting the system architecture alongside the Dutch motorways. Necessary choices need to be made if the Netherlands wishes to keep benefiting from the fast technological developments in the automotive industry. “The moment that the use of hydrogen technology will become a commodity instead of the regular use of gasoline, is getting closer and closer,” says Guido Gerritsen CEO of APM (Automotive Parts Manufacturing) in Haaksbergen (NL). “We need to look ahead and anticipate.”
Aerotech, provider of high-performance motion control and positioning systems introduces the AGV-SPO, a new high-performance Galvo Scanner. It offers a larger field of view than conventional 2D scanners, reduces laser spot distortion, and is flexible enough to accommodate a wide range of laser wavelengths thanks to a large variety of mirror surfaces. As a result, the laser scanner is suitable for a wide range of applications, from additive manufacturing to medical devices.
