The International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) will be held online due to the corona crisis and will run January 11-14 this year. For the first time, CES will take place online this year. It has always been the leading trade fair for global consumer electronics, with exhibits ranging from small chips to large airplanes and yachts. The fair covers almost all consumer electronics products and the world’s largest companies typically present their latest products and show their latest technologies here.

Purolite Announces Expansion to Address the High-demand for Pharmaceutical Products
Purolite Corporation is expanding its manufacturing capabilities to address and fulfill the increasing global demand for its pharmaceutical and life science products. The new facility will include two new cleanrooms to manufacture active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and excipients and an agarose manufacturing facility equipped with proprietary jetting technology for the capture and purification of (mAbs) monoclonal antibodies sold under the Praesto® brand.
Electronic Textiles Remotely Control Home Appliances
Electronic textiles could allow a person to control household appliances or computers from a distance simply by touching a wristband or other item of clothing — something that could be particularly helpful for those with limited mobility. Now researchers, reporting in ACS Nano, have developed a new type of electronic textiles that is self-powered, highly sensitive and washable.
Graphene Foam Sculpted into Conductive 3D Carbon Blocks
Rice scientists are making 3D laser-induced graphene (LIG) foam through an automated process that begins by turning the top layer of a polyimide (PI) sheet into graphene (top), stacking another layer on top (center) with ethylene glycol (EG) as a binder and then burning the top layer’s PI into graphene as well (bottom). The process is repeated as necessary. Courtesy of the Tour Group
Thin-Film Transistors Made Easy with AHPCS Shearing Blade
A flexible, durable and solvent-resistance inorganic polymer. (Allylhybridpolycarbosilane or AHPCS) was used to fabricate the microstructured AHPCS shearing blade. The wet-ability of the AHPCS micropillar surface is tunable. By controlling the shearing rate and the substrate temperature, crystal growth can occur along the moving blade.
Dialog Semiconductor Enters Growing Haptics Market
Dialog Semiconductor, a provider of highly integrated power management, AC/DC power conversion, charging, and Bluetooth® low energy technology, today unveiled the DA7280, a new Haptic Driver Integrated Circuit (IC). The device is capable of driving both ERM (Eccentric Rotating Mass) and LRA (Linear Resonant Actuators) motors
Center for Neovation in Neocity
Intensely focused on the future, the Center for Neovation, formerly known as the Florida Advanced Manufacturing Research Center (FAMRC) was designed and constructed in 24 months.
Semiconductor Manufacturing Facility Expansion
ON Semiconductor Corporation (Nasdaq: ON), driving energy efficient innovations, is excited to announce the expansion of their manufacturing facility in Rochester, New York. The site develops and manufactures image sensor devices for commercial, industrial and professional imaging applications, including machine vision, surveillance, traffic monitoring, medical and scientific imaging and photography.
New Superconductor Design allows for better control at the nanoscale
New Superconductor Design presents a better superconductor with geometric frustration. Superconductors contain tiny tornadoes of supercurrent, called vortex filaments, that create resistance when they move. This affects the way superconductors carry a current. A new superconductor design creates potential making them better for applications.
New Semiconductor Assembly Process
UCLA scientists and engineers have developed a new semiconductor assembly process. The advance could lead to much more energy-efficient transistors for electronics and computer chips, diodes for solar cells and light-emitting diodes, and other semiconductor-based devices.
Evolving Flexible Screen Technology
Researchers have demonstrated large-scale fabrication of a new type of transparent conductive electrode film based on nanopatterned silver. Smartphone touch screens and flat panel televisions use transparent electrodes to detect touch and to quickly switch the color of each pixel.
