eMMC (Embedded MultiMediaCard) is a compact flash storage solution that packs NAND flash and a controller onto a single chip. It provides reliable, power‑efficient storage for laptops, tablets, Chromebooks, embedded systems, and other portable devices. Nothing flashy, but it gets the job done in tight spaces where power draw matters. Compact and Space-Saving eMMC puts […]

HEBI Robotics has been awarded a Phase I contract from NASA’s Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program to develop compact robotic actuators for use in small satellites and other space missions. The project will focus on designing miniature actuators that can generate high levels of force while remaining small enough for spacecraft where space and […]

The humanoid robotics industry is transitioning from prototype development and demonstrations toward structured pilot deployments and early commercial adoption. The new IDTechEx report Materials for Humanoid Robots 2026-2036: Technologies, Players, Forecasts expects 2026-2027 to represent key transition years, with more players moving from pilot testing toward production readiness and early-scale rollout. A major component at the […]

Tacta Systems has unveiled a robotics platform designed to bring human-like dexterity and touch to industrial automation, with the company targeting applications in electronics, AI infrastructure and automotive manufacturing. The company’s first product, TactaBot, combines a robotic hand, a wearable skill capture system and an artificial intelligence engine that it says enables robots to perform […]

Choosing the wrong primary compression technology can leave a large manufacturing facility with avoidable energy costs, limited turndown, and an inflexible compressor-room configuration for years. Plant designers commonly compare a dynamic centrifugal air compressor with a positive-displacement rotary screw system. The right answer depends less on the size of the factory itself and more on […]
