Gadget fires foamy 3-D pandas into your lattes

3d_latte-660x369.jpg

Two-dimensional artwork has graced the foamy heads of Guinnesses and coffee drinks for decades. But over in Japan, they’re taking beverage-top sculptures to another level entirely. If you go to the right coffee shop, you’ll get 3-D foam sculptures and froth giraffes right on top of your drink.

Now there’s an in-home machine that you can use once then put away forever to pull off the same foam feats. The Awa Taccino, made by everyone’s favorite water-gamesmith Takara Tomy, is basically a frosting gun that doles out foamy milk instead. It’s designed to be used with non-fat milk for cold beverages and soy milk for hot beverages.

Designing Robust 5G Power Amplifiers for the Real World

Sponsored by Keysight

Simulating 5G power amplifier (PA) designs at the component and system levels with authentic modulation and high-fidelity behavioral models increases predictability, lowers risk, and shrinks schedules. Simulation software enables multi-technology layout and multi-domain analysis, evaluating the impacts of 5G PA design choices while delivering accurate results in a single virtual workspace. This application note delves into how authentic modulation enhances predictability and performance in 5G millimeter-wave systems.
