VadaTech Acquires RFSS

VadaTech, a leading manufacturer of embedded boards, enabling software and application-ready platforms, today announced the acquisition of Radio Frequency Simulation Systems, Inc. (RFSS), which specializes in the design of high fidelity, wide band, high bit count digital RF memories (DRFM), Radar and IFF test systems, and electronic countermeasure (ECM) systems.

Henderson, NV - May 23rd, 2016 - VadaTech, a leading manufacturer of embedded boards, enabling software and application-ready platforms, today announced the acquisition of Radio Frequency Simulation Systems, Inc. (RFSS), which specializes in the design of high fidelity, wide band, high bit count digital RF memories (DRFM), Radar and IFF test systems, and electronic countermeasure (ECM) systems. DRFM are a critical component in complex and sophisticated RF simulation systems used to test a wide variety of active radar sensors and systems, and the acquisition will strengthen VadaTechs solution offering in radar systems.

DRFM are also used by RFSS in a wide variety of applications including radar target generators (RTG), electronic counter measures (ECM)/target generators, Mark X & Mark XII IFF simulators, and radar environment simulators (RES) for tactical, testing, and training applications. VadaTech provides FPGA, ADC and DAC technology that is well suited to DRFM-based systems. RFSS has strong system integration expertise and can significantly advance its product offering by using VadaTech technology.
Saeed Karamooz, CEO of VadaTech Inc., said: "The natural synergies between the product sets of RFSS and VadaTech will provide great results for customers in terms of time-to-market and functionality for their next generation platforms. This acquisition is in line with VadaTechs philosophy of providing customers with access to cutting edge technology and we look forward to creating innovative solutions together."
Richard Damon, President and CEO at RFSS, said: "RFSS customers will benefit from improved performance and reliability, and dramatic reductions in the size, weight, power and cost (SWAP-C) of their solutions thanks to integration with VadaTechs advanced hardware modules. VadaTechs global sales and distribution network also means more local support and capability."

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
