Researchers at Cornell University have developed a component that they called “time lens”, which aims to increase the transmission speed of optical data. Current methods to increase the speed optical data transmission facilities require costly and energy and remain large. This new component has the dual advantage of being part of a little energy consumer and also to be integrated on a silicon chip.

In the automotive industry, electronics is the source of most technological developments. In the new vehicles are more than 70 electronic control devices exchanging data between them. Unfortunately, these embedded systems do not speak the same language as the rest of the components of the vehicle which obstructs new developments. For this reason, the automotive industry would in future all electronic components communicate with each other through the same protocol: the Internet Protocol (IP).

In the coming years, vehicles will be able to communicate and be able to warn drivers of potential hazards that may occur on their journey, as the presence of icy patches or gusts of wind. Moreover, these vehicles will be able to exchange information with the road infrastructure. The red lights and can inform the driver of traffic jams or accidents.

 Despite the recession, the major Japanese electronics companies keep their R & D at a high level. March 2010 (end of fiscal year 2009), the annual R & D investment made by nine electronics companies leading will amount to about 2600 billion yen (around 20 billion euros), which represents a decrease of 8% over the previous fiscal year. However, this is a great effort on their part given the significant decrease (-25%) of investment in equipment. For the second consecutive year, the amount of investment in R & D is higher than that of equipment.
