Considering Air Quality to Reduce the Risk of COVID Infection (Part 1)—Measuring CO2 Concentration to Visualize Air Quality and Ensure Proper Ventilation

For society to recover and progress in this post-pandemic era, we need to reduce the risk of infection at schools, offices, and other places where people gather. To achieve this, we must avoid the three Cs: closed spaces, crowded places, and close-contact settings. Toward that end, ventilation is especially important for preventing airborne infections. A new method of discerning and announcing the proper timing for ventilation is gaining attention: using CO2 sensors to visualize air quality.

Supporting the Introduction of the PoC Method for High-speed Automotive Networks Through Component Selection Efficiency

PoC, which can reduce the number of cables connecting to automotive cameras, requires a Bias-T circuit to separate the signals and power supply. Inductors for such circuits cannot simply be selected, but they can be easily selected by using Murata’s online tool (BIST). Therefore, we spoke with the managers who were involved in the development of BIST about the features and objectives in releasing the tool. This is an introduction to a technology article about Murata Manufacturing.
