Autonomous vehicle stakeholders are banking on LiDAR* to perceive objects in the environment in real time. However, there are currently no standards for LiDAR sensors and their performance can vary wildly, making them incompatible with the requirements of the target applications. Transdev, a major public transportation operator, turned to Leti and IRT Nanoelec to evaluate […] >>

The CEA has already come quite a way on its journey toward building qubits using CMOS technology. Now the CEA will have a formidable ally going forward in Australia-based SQC, which is developing a quantum computer leveraging the technologies developed at UNSW*, renowned internationally for its quantum computing research. The university has a large patent […] >>

On September 6, Grenoble Institute of Technology’s Phelma engineering school hosted a seminar to inaugurate an Anritsu network analyzer that is unique in France. The four-port analyzer covers a range of frequencies from continuous up to 145 GHz. It is used to characterize circuit components like amplifiers, couplers, dividers, and diplexers for 5G telecommunications, IoT, […] >>

On October 11–13 Maison MINATEC will host the eleventh Parvis des sciences science fair. The capacity of the event was increased this year to accommodate growing numbers of requests from schools. More than 1,500 schoolchildren (300 more than in 2017) from 31 elementary school and 28 high school classes are expected on the Thursday and […] >>

In July, around ten students from Pennsylvania in Grenoble for their research under the GIIP* took part in an innovation and fast-prototyping workshop. The students are developing innovative materials for emergency shelters as part of the French-American REACT (Research and Education in Active Coatings) partnership funded by the US National Science Foundation and French National […] >>
