Figure 1: In addition, the accuracy of the 3D model in relation to reality, the texture and shape of target objects (presence of edges) and lighting conditions (visibility) are key points to take into account for more effective tracking

Do You Know the Role of Tracking in Augmented Reality?

Wendy (Klotz) Mlynarek - DELMIA Strategic Business Development and Marketing Director, DELMIA Marketing

Thanks to Delmia’s 3D model, it simultaneously locates several elements at once, and displays the digital information required for the industrial process in the right place, at the right time and at the right scale. What is tracking? Tracking is the software process that locates a given product of i

Top-Side Cooling in OBC Applications

Ralf Otremba, Rafael Garcia, Daniel Makus, Ulrich Froehler, Lisa Holzmann, Infineon Technologies

Maximizing power density is a key aim for designers of on-board chargers (OBC) in electric vehicles (EV) because lighter chargers reduce automobile weight which in turn helps to extend the range. Efficiency is one part of the equation for achieving this aim and in this regard, the advantages of silicon carbide

How to Easily and Safely Manage Your Battery Pack

Amina Joerg and Paulo Roque, Analog Devices

If Li-Ion cells are overcharged, they can undergo thermal runaway and explode. If overly discharged, chemical reactions take place within the cell that permanently affect its ability to hold charge. Both cases involve the loss of battery cells in dangerous and expensive ways. Additionally, BMS are needed si
