How did COVID-19 impact the MEMS Industry Commercialization Report Card?
The MEMS Industry Commercialization Report Card has been conducted annually since 1998 by Roger Grace, President of Roger Grace Associates. Using a Delphi approach by soliciting input from a limited number of industry insiders and experts, the report provides valuable insight into the MEMS industry. Responses that he received for the 2020 report card took […]
Has non-contact thermal sensing improved since COVID 19 started?
Temperature sensing was the initial COVID-19 detection process to isolate people with a temperature who may have had the virus from others. Healthcare facilities including doctor’s offices and other locations frequently used and continue to use noncontact thermal sensing as a precautionary step to prevent the spread of the virus. In April 2020, the US […]
How has remote health monitoring changed in the COVID Twenties?
No roaring in this century’s twenties, just the fallout from COVID. However, some changes are for the better. Wearables for digital health and wellness were increasing before COVID but now digital healthcare, digital social activities, digital mental health support, and home-based fitness have even greater momentum. “Monitoring Health & Wellness Remotely: A Roadmap to Healthy […]
5G and COVID-19 changed semiconductor test
In this video, 5G Technology World spoke with Marvin Test CEO Steve Sargeant about how the company adapted to mass production of mmWave devices and how the pandemic changed its methods of technical support.
Robust stainless-steel switch designed for indoor or outdoor public use
SCHURTER brings optical sensing to conventional switching, with its new TTS Touchless Switch. The TTS is a robust stainless-steel switch, designed for indoor or outdoor public use to prevent the spread of pathogens. The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly raised awareness about the transmission of viruses and bacteria via surfaces, particularly as it relates to man […]
Can the AgeMeter help you?
Developed by Centers for Age Control, the AgeMeter takes user data and physiological biomarker tests to calculate functional age and provide other age-related feedback to users. Since it tests physiological biomarkers that decline with age, the AgeMeter can validate aging reversal as well as anti-aging therapies for healthcare practices, researchers, fitness programs and consumers. Intended […]
IMS2021: Live event was never in doubt
While the International Microwave Symposium will also hold a virtual conference, exhibitors insisted on a live event albeit with COVID-19 restrictions.
How has wastewater detection of COVID-19 changed in one year?
Within a few months of the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, researchers started investigating how wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE), extracting data from urine and feces transported through sewers, could be used in the fight to isolate, contain and prevent the virus from spreading. At the first company in the world to commercialize data from sewage, Biobot Analytics, […]
