An ultra-durable, remote-operated mini-tank originally created to neutralize improvised explosive devices in combat zones for the U.S. Army has been re-imagined as a firefighting robot. Created by defense contractor Howe and Howe Technologies, Thermite is designed for fire suppression in areas that are deemed too dangerous for humans. The mini-tank is equipped with HD video … [Read more...]
Thin Cavity Fluidic Heat Exchanger
Third Millennium Engineering has released a Thin Cavity Fluidic Heat Exchanger, a small volume, high performance method for cooling critical electronic devices at the chip, board, module, and system levels. Its high thermal performance originates from a very high velocity air flow, a very thin boundary layer, and high air utilization. It can efficiently and reliably cool … [Read more...]
Thermoelectric Air Conditioners with Heat Exchanger Mode
TECA Corp. has introduced two thermoelectric air conditioner models with a heat exchanger mode. They are designed to cool high-heat electronics such as military embedded systems. The heat exchanger mode switches on as the enclosure temperature rises through 25C. and uses 83% less energy than in the active cooling mode. Active cooling and heating is achieved with the use of … [Read more...]
U.S. Navy Incorporates New Test Equipment Products
National Instruments announced that Lockheed Martin will integrate NI PXI modular instrumentation and platform products into the U.S. Navy’s electronic Consolidated Automated Support System (eCASS) automated test equipment family. The eCASS test stations replace the existing CASS program as the U.S. Navy’s core test system for on-ship and onshore electronic subassembly … [Read more...]
Researchers Improve Infrared Detectors
A team of researchers from Peking University, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Duke University is harnessing the remarkable properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) to create highly sensitive, “uncooled” photovoltaic infrared detectors. This new type of detector may prove useful for industrial, military, manufacturing, optical communications, and scientific … [Read more...]
