A VPX system is a high-performance embedded computing architecture. Designed for rugged, mission-critical applications that demand high bandwidth, reliability and long-life operation. VPX is the evolution of legacy VMEbus systems. Firstly, it introduces modern serial fabrics such as PCIe, Ethernet, RapidIO …
As industrial automation evolves, more organisations are looking for ways to integrate field data directly into software systems, cloud platforms, and IIoT architectures. This shift has created growing interest in a new class of devices known as REST API I/O Modules. …
As embedded systems become smaller, smarter, and more power-efficient. Engineers face increasing pressure to integrate precise sensor measurement into devices with extremely limited space and power budgets. Traditional analogue signal conditioning can introduce noise, complexity, and longer development cycles. Especially when …
Early-age concrete behaviour directly affects the safety and performance of structural elements. Such as foundations, pile caps, rafts, and deep footings. Their reliability depends on understanding how concrete gains strength and responds during curing. For geotechnical and foundation engineers, critical decisions …
When engineers design underwater thrusters or electric propulsion systems, testing often shows problems not seen during regular bench runs. On the surface, everything looks perfect. Motors spin, controllers respond, current draw appears steady, and the system seems ready for deployment. But …
As drones become increasingly critica. Especially, in defence, inspection, emergency services, agriculture and industrial operations. The reliability of their airframes is more important than ever. A drone may look intact after a crash or hard landing. However, internal structural damage can …
Across Australia, organisations are exploring new ways to reduce emissions, stabilise energy costs, and shift away from traditional HVAC systems. One emerging solution gaining momentum internationally is the combination of solar generation with borehole thermal energy storage (BTES). Dewesoft recently showcased …
