As more and more capabilities are added to roads instead of simply covering a country with extra roads, they are starting to make their own electricity, notably as solar road surface but then with added silent wind turbines, photovoltaic verges and barriers and more.

For now, electricity for road systems is provided by very expensive infrastructure to the grid except for a few solar/ wind street lights in China and Korea for example. However, as more and more capabilities are added to roads instead of simply covering a country with extra roads, they are starting to make their own electricity, notably as solar road surface but then with added silent wind turbines, photovoltaic verges and barriers and more.

Poor air quality is a growing threat to the public health. It has caused more deaths annually than HIV/AIDS and malaria combined. Recent data from UK government shows that air pollution diseases cost the NHS £20 billion a year. The problem of air pollution is becoming a growing concern for the public.

IDTechEx will be hosting a free webinar on Tuesday 5 June titled Transparent conductive films and materials: Major trends shaping the industry's past, present and future.

Autonomous mobility, in the general public's eye, is now synonymous with cars. Whilst this might be the largest ultimate prize, it is by no means the only commercial manifestation of this technology. Indeed, as the IDTechEx Research report New Robotics and Drones 2018-2038: Technologies, Forecasts, Players demonstrates, numerous autonomous mobile robots are being commercialized in applications where there is (a) a clear commercial purpose and (b) a more structured and predictable environment.

Born out of the research labs of TU Delft with over 20 years of experience in the synthesis of aerosols, the VSP-G1 nanoparticle generator provides researchers with the possibility to perform ground-breaking research within the field of nanomaterials without the limitations of common generation methods and materials.

PyzoFlex® is a printable sensor technology that can be implemented on an industrial scale.

IDTechEx will be hosting a free webinar on Thursday 24 May titled Robots and drones: How everything is changing.

If your company serves the electronics industry you owe it to yourself and your company to explore your opportunities at Printed Electronics USA - the world's largest event dedicated to printed, flexible and hybrid electronics and all its applications.

There is an increasing demand for monitoring environmental air conditions both indoors and outdoors, as poor air quality is a growing threat to the public health.
