Development of Fast Response DC/DC Converter IC by Fujitsu
As consumer audio visual equipment are featuring multi-functional capability as well as their ability for advance video compression, forcing the IC manufacturer of such equipment to design ICs capable of handling high-speed with multi-functional features making the power supplies for these type of ICs to handle the large currents and fast transient response. In response to these needs, Fujitsu Microelectronics has developed a new two-channel DC/DC converter IC capable of fast transient response targeted to be used in digital consumer electronics.

Development of Multi-functional Bed-shaped Robot by Panasonic
Aging society in Japan has been one of the contributing factors in success or should I say revival of Robotic application by helping individuals with limited mobility to lead an independent life. One such Robot is a newly developed Robotic bed which can transform itself into a wheelchair and vise versa with a command of the user eliminating any needs for moving between bed and wheelchair and helps from any care givers resulting in an increase in user’s activities such as joining the family meal without any need for assistance form other people. Panasonic has incorporated human- robot interface technologies in facilitating easy operation of the robot with no requirements for training. Read more
