This Friday, 28 November, nearly 6,000 Airbus A320 aircraft were grounded worldwide for several hours for an emergency software update designed to fix a flight-control vulnerability linked to solar radiation. Why does solar radiation disrupt aeronautical electronic systems, and how can they be protected? Here are some insights into this phenomenon and the solutions to implement.

In industry, especially in warehouse logistics, a stable power supply is essential, as demonstrated by its importance in mobile applications like hand-held scanners. Supercapacitors (supercaps) provide energy storage solutions that intelligently complement conventional battery concepts. Leuze makes targeted use of the technology in its innovative sensor solutions.
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tags are used for asset recognition through digital encoding technology. These tags use an antenna, an electronic chip, or an integrated circuit to send and receive data.
