Do you waddle the waddle?
MayQueen has introduced the PIXPAPER-213-C, a 2.13-inch prototype electronic paper display developed with Triangle Alien Studio. Featuring a four-color display and an SPI interface, it is designed for low-power, high-contrast embedded applications.
As its name suggests, the Metro RP2350 features the RP2350 microcontroller running at 150MHz with dual ARM Cortex-M33 cores. It includes 520KB of on-chip SRAM and 16MB of QSPI flash memory for program storage and file management. The board operates at 3.3V logic and integrates a 5V buck converter, allowing an input range of 6V to 17V DC while providing up to 2A output.
ADLINK Technology and LIPS have introduced a perception solution for autonomous mobile robots. The LIPSAMR Perception DevKit integrates ADLINK’s DLAP-411-Orin platform with LIPSedge AE Active Stereo 3D cameras, providing enhanced 3D vision with a wider field of view and higher resolution than LiDAR. Built on NVIDIA Isaac Perceptor, it is designed for smart manufacturing and warehouse logistics applications.
Espressif Systems announced the ESP32-P4 over a year ago. While the chip is not yet available for retail, a prototype development board featuring the chip was recently showcased by Olimex. This board includes multiple interfaces, such as an Ethernet connector and a camera connector, demonstrating its versatile capabilities.
ASUS has just provided pricing details for the ASUS NUC 15 Pro+, a compact computing system powered by Intel Core Ultra Processors (Series 2), offering up to 99 TOPS of AI acceleration and an 18% increase in performance compared to the previous generation.
This version includes important security updates to Firefox.
This release has a client-side implementation for Family IDs (a.k.a. "Happy Families"), which (when used everywhere!) will save relay administrators time and bandwidth. It also starts to lay the groundwork for a full Conflux implementation, to improve performance by sending traffic over multiple paths.
Firefox 137 looks like a small update that only introduces a couple of new features, namely support for HEVC playback on Linux systems and the ability to identify all links in PDF documents and turn them into hyperlinks.
Highlights of KeePassXC 2.7.10 include the ability to import passwords from Proton Pass, but the feature only supports unencrypted JSON files and no Passkeys, support for KeePass2 TOTP configuration settings, and support for generating passphrases using a mix of uppercase and lowercase words, called “MIXED case”.
Highlights of Firefox 136 include official Linux binary packages for the AArch64 (ARM64) architecture, hardware video decoding for AMD GPUs on Linux systems, a new HTTPS-First behavior for upgrading page loads to HTTPS, and Smartblock Embeds for selectively unblocking certain social media embeds blocked in the ETP Strict and Private Browsing modes.
Coming a little over three months after Ubuntu Touch OTA-7, the Ubuntu Touch OTA-8 release is a small one adding only VoLTE (Voice over LTE) support for Volla Phone X23 and Volla Phone 22 devices running the Halium 12 port., support for WPA3-protected Wi-Fi networks, and the ability to remove a picture from a contact entry.
