This is a cute bracelet! Oh, and it’s also a drone that will take selfies for you in mid-air

That’s the idea behind Intel’s Make It Wearable contest, “a global initiative to inspire ideas and fuel innovation that will evolve personal computing in exciting new ways.” With a $500,000 grand prize, Intel is challenging people to invent and design tech projects so small and functional that you can wear them on your body unobtrusively. It’s the future!

The Make It Wearable contest finalists include emotional prosthetics, a low-cost robotic hand, a sports necklace – and Nixie, the bracelet that is actually a flying drone that will take your selfies and return to your wrist. It’s like a falcon, if the falcon was actually a robot that could take your picture.

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.
