VadaTech Celebrates 10 Years of Innovative Embedded Computing Solutions

VadaTech, a manufacturer of embedded boards, chassis, and complete application-ready platforms, is having its 10th anniversary on July 31, 2014.

VadaTech started in 2004, primarily focused on specialty products in the AdvancedTCA architecture. The company offered several RTM solutions and expanded to provide Advanced Mezzanine Cards (AMCs). When MicroTCA came along in the 2006, the company increasingly shifted its focus to become the leader in the highly versatile COTS architecture.


"When I first saw the MicroTCA architecture, I was immediately sold. The rich features such as e-keying, shelf management and failover, multi-fabric protocol options, etc, in a compact, high-performance architecture was impressive", said Saeed Karamooz, CEO of VadaTech. "There is so much versatility in MicroTCA -- with options that are just not available in any other open standard architecture."

VadaTech now offers over 200 AMCs and is the industry's only provider of the full MicroTCA ecosystem from chassis platforms to AMCs, to MCHs, and more. The company recently invested in a $25 million state-of-the-art facility, tripling the number of production lines. The privately-held company is expecting to rapidly increase revenues this year and in 2015. This growth is a testament to VadaTech's innovation and the impressive performance and versatility of the MicroTCA and AdvancedTCA COTS architectures.

Nion: Next-level time-of-flight

Nion: Next-level time-of-flight

The new Nion 3D camera advances Time-of-Flight (ToF) technology with exceptional resolution, speed, and industrial robustness. Designed for demanding applications such as logistics, warehousing, industrial automation, and robotics, Nion delivers high-resolution depth data with real-time performance for faster, safer, and more flexible operations. At its core is the 1.2-megapixel Time-of-Flight sensor AF0130 from onsemi's Hyperlux ID family, offering up to four times the resolution of conventional VGA-based ToF cameras and significantly higher data density. Active 940-nm laser illumination ensures accurate and stable measurements in low-light conditions, artificial lighting, and even direct sunlight. With an IP67-rated housing, Nion is built for reliable operation in dusty, wet, and thermally challenging industrial environments. A user-friendly API with IDS peak support and compliance with the GigE Vision standard enable fast integration and flexible deployment in high-resolution 3D applications. The Nion 3D camera is now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems.
