BBC – Future | Euro Type Pop Up Socket

Apparently we can thank America for the (plug-in) hybrid’s handbrake placement. Cupholders and storage spaces are king in the USA, but the footbrake feels old-fashioned in a car designed to offer a slice of the future.

And it doesn’t reserve gimbals for drones. Its Ronin family has enjoyed success in the pro video and film production arena, substituting for a Steadicam when using big, full-frame cameras.

• They operate at extra-low voltage which significantly reduces the risk of electric shock.• They use much less power, generating little heat and so reducing the risk of fire and burns. This makes them safer to use.• They are estimated to use 80-90% less electricity than filament lamps so they are less expensive to run and typically last up to 60 times longer.• They are more durable. Because LED lights are made of a special plastic with no filament, there are no glass lamps to break.• They are a great deal more efficient to run and good at saving energy so are more environmentally friendly.

The D760 is a new complimentary solution to our DuraScan family and the S860 will replaced our S850 solution as a performance 2D attachable scanner. Passport reading demand is something we’ve seen emerge from opportunities in Japan, as the market prepares for the 2020 Olympics.
