Electronic cornucopia
If only electronic shopping for our everyday needs was easier in practice - at the touch of a button, using a device that is simple to operate and as familiar as a pocket calculator. Of course, if the entire technology is to be accepted, customer satisfaction must be guaranteed, and that means quick and reliable delivery. Flawless operation along... view more... (2001-07-30)
The everydayness of electronics increases the demands set for design
The more everyday electronics become, the higher the demands for product design and manufacturing are set. An impartial Finnish specialist organization, VTT Electronics, carries out research work and develops technologies which are adapted to more and more complex environments. The challenge of manufacturing technology is to develop efficient... view more... (2001-08-21)
