NKK's OLED Rocker is a low profile,
multifunctional rocker switch with a built-in programmable OLED display. The
OLED rocker switch is a new addition to NKK's SmartSwitch product line of
user-friendly interfaces that combine a switch with a programmable display in
one device. The primary applications for
the OLED rocker switch are in control systems and in HMI displays or operator
interface applications where it can be used to replace multiple switches and
multiple displays. It also has an IP64
rating so it is well suited for applications where the device is exposed to
dust and water. The OLED Rocker allows engineers to incorporate the functions
of multiple switches and displays into one space-saving device. The benefits of
this are lower material cost, reduced panel space, less inventory and faster
installation time. The OLED SmartSwitch Rocker simplifies and improves operator
interfaces where multiple selection menus are required. User selection is based
on menus visible on the display and multiple layers of menus can be easily
achieved; this affords engineers a great deal of flexibility with just one
device. In addition, with its IP64 rating for dust and water protection, the
OLED rocker can be used in industrial applications and medical areas where wipe
down is required. The OLED Rocker has the following differentiating
attributes: first programmable switch to
combine an OLED display and three pushbutton switches; first programmable
switch with an IP rating for dust & water protection; high resolution OLED, exceptional contrast
at 96 x 64 pixels; and longest display life of any OLED switch (52K
hours typical).
Using almost 200 light-emitting diodes in the front and back of the new 2014 CTS, Cadillac designers are showing how LEDs can change the character of a vehicle.
We looked at a number of sources to determine this year's greenest cars, from KBB to automotive trade magazines to environmental organizations. These 14 cars emerged as being great at either stretching fuel or reducing carbon footprint.

A quick look into the merger of two powerhouse 3D printing OEMs and the new leader in rapid prototyping solutions, Stratasys. The industrial revolution is now led by 3D printing and engineers are given the opportunity to fully maximize their design capabilities, reduce their time-to-market and functionally test prototypes cheaper, faster and easier. Bruce Bradshaw, Director of Marketing in North America, will explore the large product offering and variety of materials that will help CAD designers articulate their product design with actual, physical prototypes. This broadcast will dive deep into technical information including application specific stories from real world customers and their experiences with 3D printing. 3D Printing is
