Start with the news release
Epiphan introduces KVM internet appliance from
Epiphan Systems, which we summarised at the time by saying "Epiphan Systems has introduced the KVM2Ethernet: an internet appliance that allows users to add remote KVM capability to any computerised device.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Boa camera suits harsh factory-floor environments from
Adept Electronic Solutions: "Adept Electronic Solutions is offering the Boa smart camera, an all-in-one vision system from Dalsa designed for harsh factory-floor environments.".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Sick Stegmann
- take a look at SICK introduces single- and multi-turn encoders
which says: "SICK Stegmann has introduced the AFS60 single-turn and AFM60 multi-turn absolute encoders.".
Take a look also at the news release from Edmund Optics, EO adds more than 30 lenses to Techspec range,
as well as Igus optical-fibre cable suits all bus systems from Igus UK,
and NSK bearings save costs for carbon-fibre producer from NSK UK.
