It could be argued that the Montgolfier brothers' hot air balloon, presented in 1783, was the first unmanned aircraft. However, the flight of an unmanned balloon without a tether connecting it to the ground is determined solely by the wind.
In 1892, Thomas Edison demonstrated a wire-guided torpedo, and Nikola Tesla exhibited his radio-controlled boat in 1898. Several decades later, the first remotely controlled unmanned vehicles and aircraft reached the market. Today, applications range from toys to autonomous, remotely guided, or remotely controlled unmanned vehicles, operating in the air, on land, or underwater.

Heating and cooling account for approximately 50% of global energy consumption, with 30% of that consumption coming from industrial heating. Since the vast majority of industrial heating processes use fossil fuels to generate heat, these processes are responsible for approximately 25% of global emissions.

This article presents the RZ/V2H MPU, which enables both vision AI and real-time control capabilities.
As the working-age population shrinks due to declining birth rates and a growing elderly population, advanced artificial intelligence (AI) processing, such as environmental recognition, action decision-making, and motion control, will be necessary in various aspects of society, including factories, logistics, healthcare, service robots operating in cities, and security cameras. Systems will need to handle advanced AI processing in real time across a variety of programs.

According to the IEA’s 2023 roadmap update, carbon capture technologies, more efficient refrigeration equipment, and clean energy transitions are cornerstones for achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 and limiting global warming to 1.5°C. Emerging technologies using metal-organic framework (MOF) materials for carbon capture, refrigerant recovery, direct lithium extraction, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning equipment, and other chemical separation and purification processes may usher in disruptive next-generation technologies essential for industrial decarbonization.

The sourcing of materials and components is becoming an increasingly debated topic across multiple sectors. IDTechEx forecasts that electric vehicle sales will quadruple over the next 10 years. Much of the discussion focuses on battery materials, but the rare earth elements used in electric motor magnets are another key concern.

Achieving lower energy consumption while simultaneously reducing the size of power supplies or devices are challenges that designers commonly face. Gallium nitride (GaN) promises to address these needs thanks to its low conduction resistance and faster switching capacity compared to silicon-based devices.

A busbar is essentially a metal component with very low ohmic resistance used to transmit large amounts of energy as efficiently as possible. When we talk about large amounts of energy, we can refer to very high currents (ranging from 200 A to 5 kA) or very high voltages.
The materials used to create a busbar are usually copper or aluminum with plating treatments of nickel, tin, silver, or gold, depending on the application requirements.
Based on the manufacturing process and performance characteristics, busbars can be classified as flexible, rigid, or laminated.
