| | Extreme Engineering Solutions New SBC is Focused on Intelligence and Surveillance |
Extreme Engineering Solution’s (X-ES) XCalibur4840 6U VPX-REDI Module, is a new single board computer (SBC) sporting an intel D-2700 series, which was formerly an Ice Lake-D chip, series of processors. These SBCs are focused in computational heavy applications requiring maximum data and information protection. It is applicable in the areas of command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR), radar, and many other mission-critical defense systems. |

| | RelayFi is a Smart Home Automation Board Attached to Alexa and Others |
| CoreData Global is announcing its Kickstarter campaign for the smart board, RelayFi. RelayFi is a smart automation board that allows users to control up to four devices right through their home IoT assistant or smartphone. RelayFi is powered by ESP32-WROOM (4MB) with four-channel relays that can help control up to 4 devices. RelayFi is set up to connect easily, and simply, through ESP32-WROOM, GPIO pins, EL817C Optoisolator, onboard CH340C, I2C connector, relay selection jumpers and relay status indicator. |

| | Hex Color Picker Input Board Powered By Raspberry Pi Pico |
The Dial Toner, developed by Guy Dupont, is a hex color picker input board powered by Raspberry Pi Pico. Dialing in hex values for LED colors just got easier. The Dial Toner is powered by Raspberry Pi RP 2040 and is small and very efficient. It is a hardware alternative way to find the exact color you want, for a couple of LEDs, that could be used in other projects. |

| The Expanding of the Embedded World
Circuit cellar fans, we are entering a new world entirely. The world of embedded electronics is expanding with an amazing explosion of new innovations every day. The computational complexity of the latest chips are rival the standards and goes beyond the embedded systems that had held rein up until today. With the changes in Intel, AMD, NXP, STM, and many more, the world of embedded electronics has breached its own limits. Neural computations are becoming commonplace and the latest in Quantum computing is reaching the shores of the consumer markets. |

| | | The devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) are dashing among all this computational fervor and doing amazing things, like lighting cities, heating the cities, and running the parking in cities. Smart homes and buildings are being controlled by central control panels, and more and more appliances and items in our daily lives are connected. All this is due to embedded electronics. Medicine is advancing into places like remote cardiac care, where patients who until recently had to be hospitalized, can now be monitored remotely from anywhere. The embedded SoCs and SoMs that make that happen, control, and monitor thousands of instances of data a second is helping in real-world scenarios. |
|
| In the automotive industry, the latest cars and trucks are electric and moving steadily into a place where they will have an ecosystem per instance of vehicle, a “personality” all their own. Embedded chips and modules are being developed with computational power rivaling that of any general-purpose processor. When we return on October 4, we will be speaking of devices that power and respond to our embedded systems, in the Analog and Power run down. |
