Researchers from Paragraf Limited and Queen Mary University of London have demonstrated the successful fabrication of an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) that uses a single layer of graphene to replace the indium-tin oxide that has traditionally made touchscreens touchable. Despite being one of the rarest elements in earth's crust, indium is found in almost all modern electronic devices with a touchscreen. Indium-tin oxide is used to create a thin and invisible layer lying...
Nokia and AngloGold Ashanti Colombia Sept. 23 announced they are testing the potential for safe, sustainable, and efficient deployment of a 5G standalone industrial-grade network in a challenging underground mine environment in Jerico, Columbia. Four mining use cases were tested as part of this trial carried out in collaboration with Epiroc, Sandvik, Tigo, and OSC Top Solutions – mission-critical communications; connectivity and remote teleoperation of vehicles; mining machine...
Following last year's announcement of Nokia's 5G standalone private wireless networks, Nokia and early collaborator Sandvik Mining and Rock Technology have announced a partnership with VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland to start a research project focusing on 5G-powered underground mining technology. Aptly called Next Generation Mining (NGMining), the partners say the new project will bring together industrial 5G private networks, edge computing, and artificial...
Nokia April 22 announced the deployment of a private LTE/4.9G wireless network for Minera Gold Fields, partnering with Claro Chile to equip the Salares Norte mine and transform the Chile-based operation into one of the most digitalized mines in Latin America.
