| Adaptive Signal Amplification With Dynamic Gain Control |
This demo compares the MCU’s dynamic gain operational amplifiers (op amps) against a traditional discrete op amp setup. As you press on the pressure plate, the onboard LEDs respond in real time, demonstrating how the PIC16F17576 seamlessly adjusts gain levels on the fly to maintain signal clarity across a wide input range. |
| ASA-ML ADAS Zonal Aggregator |
This demo showcases multiple ADAS cameras aggregated in a zonal architecture using ASA Motion Link (ASA-ML) to enable highly flexible and modular IVN designs. Zonal architectures enable wiring harness simplification and coaxial cable weight reduction. Each camera uses our VS775S single-port ASA-ML serializer. The zonal hub uses our VS776Q quad-hub ASA-ML solution. The ECU uses our VS775S ASA-ML deserializer. Video data is transported over ASA-ML from the cameras to an NVIDIA® Jetson™ Orin™ platform. |
| Compact ECG Mixed-Signal and Digital Processing Reference Design |
The compact ECG mixed-signal and digital processing reference design optimizes bio signal quality through a series of critical components. This design enables ECG signal acquisition, utilizing a mixed-signal front-end for amplifying and filtering raw ECG signals and digital signal processing for precise filtering, real-time analysis and an improved signal-to-noise ratio. |
| Fast, Flexible Leak Detection for Embedded Applications |
This demonstration showcases a real-time, interrupt-driven water detection and response system leveraging the PIC18F56Q24 microcontroller (MCU) and the MTCH9010 capacitive liquid detection IC. Upon contact with water, the system immediately activates a visual alert using a 4 × 4 RGB LED matrix (WS2812), an audible alert via a buzzer module, or a combination of both, depending on the selected operational mode. |
| Inductive Position Sensors for Smart Actuators |
Rotate, slide and interact with linear and rotary inductive position sensors and see how their position is read by a host processor. The inductive position sensor ICs provide high-performance solutions for high-reliability and safety-critical automotive position sensor applications. Our magnetic field sensors provide accurate position measurements, are immune to stray magnetic fields and don’t require a magnetic target. This specific demo also highlights the functional safety capabilities of our sensor designs. |
| Lenovo® ThinkPad® X1 Fold—Foldable OLED with Knob-on-Display™ (KoD™) Technology |
Experience our latest high-performance maXTouch® technology featuring the new M1-generation product family on a flexible OLED panel, integrated with the innovative Knob-on-Display™ (KoD™) technology. This cutting-edge solution is designed primarily for the automotive market, delivering advanced user interaction and sleek design flexibility. Its versatility also makes it an excellent fit for industrial applications looking to elevate their Human-Machine Interface (HMI) experience. |
| Machine Learning Predictive Maintenance |
Predictive maintenance allows factories to monitor the performance data on key assets and predict when a failure may be imminent. By fixing or maintaining machinery during planned shutdowns, they can save millions per year due to unplanned shutdowns. |
| maXTouch Rugged Outdoor Touchscreen Solutions |
We're showcasing a fountain rain simulation on a rugged 15.6" outdoor touch display that delivers flawless performance with no false touches, even in wet conditions or when using gloved fingers. This demo features a firetruck control panel GUI powered by our Graphics Controller (GFX) module, highlighting the rain and moisture immunity of our capacitive touch solution through a robust 6 mm IK10-rated cover glass. The setup includes a maXTouch 15.6" display, MPU32 SAM7AD65 with UFX6000 board, and power adapters—all designed to meet the demands of harsh, real-world environments. |
| Multi-Link Bluetooth® Gateway |
This demo showcases multi-link Bluetooth® LE connectivity and control using the PIC32CZ CA MCU, paired with PIC32CX BZ2 Bluetooth LE modules. Acting as a central Bluetooth LE device, the PIC32CZ CA + RNBD451 setup simultaneously connects to and controls three WBZ451 Bluetooth LE peripheral devices—demonstrating robust, concurrent wireless communication, which is excellent for smart, connected applications. A WINC1500 Xplained board can also be connected to the PIC32CZ CA Curiosity board to configure the application as a Wi-Fi® access point and control the peripheral devices via a web interface. |
| Radiant Heating—Efficient Heating for Electric Vehicles |
How can electric vehicles be heated efficiently, without waiting for the engine to warm up, to deliver faster comfort in cold weather? The answer is radiant heating, which provides rapid warmth exactly where it’s needed. We offer a low-cost solution that goes a step further by enabling capacitive touch sensing through the same heating element—no additional sensing components required. |
| Secure Firmware Over-the-Air (FOTA) Updates with TrustMANAGER |
This demo illustrates how our TrustManager in-field provisioning enables secure FOTA updates for connected devices. The EV89U05A kit, with the ATECC608 secure element, securely connects to the Kudelski IoT keySTREAM cloud platform and is provisioned with the necessary keys and certificates, including a public key, forms a public-private key pairing created in keySTREAM. A firmware update is loaded into keySTREAM and signed using the private key. Once triggered, the device securely downloads the signed firmware image and verifies the signature using the private key before loading the firmware into the bootloader. There are two kinds of firmware in this demo. One for sensing temperature and the other for sensing light. Using a tablet, you can trigger either the temperature or light firmware to load on the device where the data will be shown on a small LCD screen of a microbus kit mounted on the EV89U05A. |
| Secure Telehealth/Remote Monitoring Reference Design |
The secure telehealth/remote monitoring reference design board collects pulse oximetry and temperature data. This data can be transferred through the cloud to an approved and authenticated remote user such as a doctor or other medical professional. In a final regulatory-approved medical device application, the physician or medical professional on the other end of this link can securely view and analyze the patient’s vital signs data to diagnose and prescribe treatment. The patient data can also be viewed via a Bluetooth connection from this board. |
| Smart Home Automation/Security Touchscreen Panel With Camera Feed |
This Smart Home demo offers homeowners a centralized platform to manage home security and control smart appliances like thermostats, lights, fans, robotic vacuum cleaners and coffee machines. It provides real-time access to security sensor statuses on doors and windows, along with live camera feeds. Homeowners can also apply presets for different modes, such as daytime, nighttime and vacation, for seamless home automation. |
| Smart Transport Solutions |
This Smart Transport Solutions demo showcases Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) networks to implement sensors in a commercial vehicle, such as tire pressure, temperature and fan control. This is accomplished using the Multi-Role and Multi-Link features of Bluetooth LE, where devices can play central and peripheral roles, and host eight separate links. The resulting network allows for seamless integration with smartphones. |
| Steering Wheel With Low-Cost Heating and Hands-off Detection (HoD) |
Driver assistance systems are now standard in nearly every new vehicle, with features like lane-keeping assist becoming increasingly common. While these systems support the driving experience, they aren't fully autonomous, which allows the driver to take control at any moment for overall safety. Our cost-effective, integrated heating and Hands-off Detection (HoD) solution leverages the steering wheel’s existing heating element for capacitive sensing, which eliminates the need for a separate HoD sensor. |
| Ultra-Low-Power Analog Monitoring |
This interactive demo uses a temperature sensor activated by the touch of a finger. It showcases the MCU’s ability to monitor analog thresholds while the core remains in sleep mode. Real-time current consumption is displayed in microamp, giving you a clear view of how the MCU intelligently minimizes energy draw without sacrificing responsiveness. |
