MotionSoft(reg) intuitive, state logic, and icon-based motion sequence programming tool is completely motion-card independent, and eliminates the need to program in any control-card native code and its associated language. The tool reduces sequence development time and offers a series of fill-in forms to define specific applications. As most motion sequences have been done many times before, numerous pre-programmed motion sequences are provided, so that the user needs only to set variables specific to their application.

The Nest is a sleek-looking digital thermostat which can actually "learn" its owners' schedule and then continue to regulate temperature to suit the user's preferences and patterns.
Thanks to embedded electronics, medical devices are getting smaller and smarter than ever. Pacemakers and implantable defibrillators are now able to call physicians. MRIs, CT scanners, and ultrasound machines are gaining mobility. And the venerable Band-Aid may soon be able to detect illnesses ranging from fevers to heart arrhythmias. On February 21, join Design News senior editor Charles Murray for a wide-ranging discussion, "Embedded Angles for Medical Products," which will explore the latest developments in medical electronics. The discussion will examine advances in medical device technology and offer an inside look at the embedded electronics behind it.
