The Koike Laboratory is researching next-generation broadband technology, based on the concept “Fiber to the Display.” This is not an extension of current Internet technology, which is based on electronics originating from Silicon Valley. Instead, the aim is to achieve “a broadband society that puts people back on center stage,” supported by super-high-quality displays and super-high bit rate. A key technology in this research is GI-POF (graded index plastic optical fiber), which was developed by Professor Koike. GI-POF is thick plastic optical fiber, with a core diameter of 1 mm. Because this fiber is flexible, it doesn’t easily break or penetrate other objects, and it can be processed freely. This new fiber makes it possible to install a fiber connection right up to the terminal of a communication network in the home, which was difficult with conventional quartz optical fiber. Q. “I think the Internet has greatly changed the way in which society utilizes information. But the more convenient the Internet becomes, the more communication is done through keyboards and the little screens of mobile phones. I think we haven’t escaped from the paradigm that people, even seniors, have to adapt to machines. I do think such forms of communication are great. But think what it would be like if your home had a window that was connected to the world. For example, if an elderly person feels unwell in the middle of the night, will he or she be able to communicate by typing on a keyboard … Video Rating: 5 / 5
In part two of our NeoFox tutorials, we show you how to perform a two-point calibration. In this example we will be using Nitrogen as the Zero percent Oxygen standard, and room air as our second standard at 20.9% Oxygen. If you have not setup your NeoFox software, please view the first video in the series for help doing so. For more information, visit www.oceanoptics.com Video Rating: 5 / 5
A special episode today covering the landmark arrival of the PPC-1, the first telco neutral submarine cable to be built for Australian broadband usage. 4787km of cable rising out of the sea. It’s like trainspotting for comms engineering geeks. The builders claim it’s about competition, not capacity, and from what we’ve seen and heard today it seems like we’re in for an exciting year of price drops and usage limit increases.

This video shows PCIe Gen3 operating as an active, eight lane aggregation pipe over an optical link, delivering a full 64Gbps (128Gbps bidirectional) performance. It uses the PLX PEX8748 Gen3 switch and Avago MicroPOD optical modules.
Since 1994 the factory has built and gradually gained a very good reputation on European and worldwide markets by uncompromised quality of its fiber-optic and optoelectronic components. The company focuses not only on telecommunications and data transmission applications but also on often custom-made solutions for niche markets incl. harsh industrial environments, dedicated measurement technology, sensor technology, aerospace, chemical, military, and other industries.
Star Light Solutions are based in Malaga, Spain and offer LED and Fibre Optic Lighting for both residential and commercial customers. This video is to give you an idea of what is available but remember, the only limits are your imagination! www.StarLightSolutions.eu Video Rating: 5 / 5
