Electrical engineers from the University of California have created a new ultra-thin metamaterial that could provide a cloaking device and make UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) invisible. The new material creates invisibility and leaves no electronic, infrared or visual signatures for enemies to detect. The new design uses “an ultra-thin Teflon substrate, studded with … [Read more...]
Woman Claims Wi-Fi Causes Illness; French Court Grants Disability Allowance
A French court has granted Marine Richard, a woman who claims she is ‘allergic to Wi-Fi,’ £500 a month (about $764 U.S. dollars) in disability allowance. Richards claims she suffers from electromagnetic sensitivity and that exposure to Wi-Fi, mobile phones and televisions cause her extreme pain. According to Richard’s lawyers, she has been living away from society in a barn in … [Read more...]
RF Filter Ideal for Use in Intelligent Transport Systems
CTS Electronic Components, Inc. introduces a new surface-mount RF Bandpass Filter for use in Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) such as V2v, V2I, V2X and 802.11p. The filters were designed for use in Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments (WAVE) and Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DRSC). The CTS TCB001A Bandpass Filter is small in size and supports 2 … [Read more...]
3D Printing Can Add Circuitry
Researcher Michael Perrone is currently testing a prototype of one of the world’s most advanced 3D printers, which was built by a startup company known as Voxel8. The 3D printer is not on the market yet, but it can produce small objects out of plastic while simultaneously adding circuitry to them. The printer was produced last month in a lab at Harvard University. During … [Read more...]
Parents Sue Boarding School over its Wi-Fi Signal
Parents are suing Fay School, a boarding school in Southborough, Mass., over claims that the school’s Wi-Fi signal is making their 12-year-old son sick. According to the Worcester Telegram & Gazette, the parents claim their son has ‘Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Syndrome’ and has suffered from nausea, nosebleeds and headaches since the school activated a stronger … [Read more...]
SMD Ferrites Expanded; Company to Showcase EMC Components at Symposium
Würth Elektronik eiSos GmbH & Co. KG will showcase its new range of SMD ferrites, known as the WE-MPSB-SMD Ferrites, at the IEEE EMC Symposium in Dresden. The SMD ferrites are suitable for temporary peak current loads and for use in power supply lines. They can withstand 20 times their specified rated current load – which is 55 percent higher than other components on the … [Read more...]
Company Introduces New Amplifiers at Symposium
TMD Technologies will introduce a new wide range of travelling wave tube amplifiers (TWTAs) for EMC HIRF testing at the IEEE EMC Symposium in Dresden. The TWTAs are compact, lightweight, affordable and offer high field strength. The amplifiers are ideal for use in numerous EMC testing and intermodulationg (PIM) testin applications as well as telecommunications, electronic … [Read more...]
Report: Data can be Hacked Via Sound Waves
A security expert has reported that data can be hacked and transmitted by using sound waves. “Attackers could make use of the physical elements of common input/output circuits - not only in computers but in printers, aircon units, and all kinds of other devices - by vibrating them at a pre-decided frequency. Effectively, they would be turned into radios,” Reuters reported. … [Read more...]
Electromagnetic Catapult Successfully Installed on Aircraft Carrier
The Navy’s new electromagnetic catapult, the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System, (EMALS) has successfully been installed on the USS Gerald R. Ford, replacing the steam catapults previously used to launch aircraft. Because EMALS yields less maintenance, more control, more reliability and a lighter weight, the Navy decided it will be used on all future aircraft carriers in … [Read more...]
EMI/EMC Power Filter Line Expands
API Technologies has expanded its power filter family with the introduction of new two-line, two-stage, EMI/EMC power filters designed for use in ground-current-sensitive applications. The filters offer a rated voltage of 250(50/60Hz) and an operating temperature range of -40 to +85 degrees Celsius. Other features include “withstanding voltage is 4000V AC or 1500V AC for one … [Read more...]
