Dear Readers, after the summer break, in this new Feature on Open Source Semiconductors, we share with you how an ecosystem with open source hardware can contribute to the innovative revolution in semiconductor research and production. We also show how smart sound sensor technology can help improve product quality and reduce recall costs in food manufacturing. In addition, we will be showcasing our solutions for increased safety and comfort in and outside of transportation with non-contact vital sign measurement in vehicle interiors and environment sensing with our 3072-pixel LiDAR camera. You can get to know both solutions this week at the IAA Mobility. In addition, you can get inspired by our solutions at the upcoming industry and medical trade fairs, or visit us in Duisburg at the 57th annual conference of the German Society for Biomedical Engineering, at our CMOS Imaging Workshop and at the Fraunhofer career event »Science connects«. We look forward to meeting you in person, and until then, we hope you enjoy reading this issue. |
