Event Summary: Autonomous Ships Expo 2022

IDTechEx has seen at Autonomous Ships Expo 2022 that autonomy in ships is a fast-developing area. There are some key areas that are emerging as early adopters and deployers of autonomous technology, while others are developing and gaining confidence in the technology. This premium article covers some key learnings from the Autonomous Ships Expo 2022, highlighting which applications are likely to adopt first, who the key players are, and what selection of sensors are needed.

The Next Stage in Thermal Materials for 5G

Whilst much of the "5G" infrastructure is a moderate upgrade on existing 4G technology, there is still plenty of scope for higher frequency deployment such as mmWave devices and very different station types such as small cells. Each of these new developments presents its own technological evolution and with it, thermal challenges.

Smart Implants to Monitor Healing

Spinal fusion—fusing two vertebrae together—can treat a wide variety of spinal disorders. Often, surgeons will use a cage to provide support where the disk once was between the vertebrae. But what if those cages could support the spine's healing in more ways than one?

Wearable Chemical Sensor is Good as Gold

Researchers created a special ultrathin sensor, spun from gold, that can be attached directly to the skin without irritation or discomfort. The sensor can measure different biomarkers or substances to perform on-body chemical analysis. It works using a technique called Raman spectroscopy, where laser light aimed at the sensor is changed slightly depending on whatever chemicals are present on the skin at that point. The sensor can be finely tuned to be extremely sensitive, and is robust enough for practical use.
