Ultraviolet (UV) has high energy in the wavelength range of 100 ~ 400nm and is used for sterilization, air purification, medical treatment, etc.

Key Points:

Ultraviolet (UV) has high energy in the wavelength range of 100 ~ 400nm and is used for sterilization, air purification, medical treatment, etc.
As mentioned above, the need for a sensor that accurately detects only the particular wavelength range of the far UV & VUV is growing.
A Korean UV sensor manufacturer, Genicom UV Sensor Laboratory has developed a Far UV & VUV-dedicated optical sensor that can measure only the Far UV or VUV light by the AlN III-V compound semiconductor Epitaxial growth technology using high-temperature(>1300℃) Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition(MOCVD).
Different from conventional Si-based sensors, the VUV sensor developed by Genicom, a Korean UV sensor manufacturer, use the nitride semiconductor with Ultra-wide band gap AlN epitaxy.

IDTechEx Takes a Look at Tesla's Ross and Rachel Relationship With Radar

Tesla started its full self-driving hardware with radar in 2016, it began the break-up with radar in 2021, and radar was removed from production entirely in 2021.

Key Points:

Tesla started its full self-driving hardware with radar in 2016, it began the break-up with radar in 2021, and radar was removed from production entirely in 2021.
But in 2023, Tesla released its Hardware 4.0 (HW4.0) update, and radar has re-entered the relationship, but for how long?
Since then, its relationship with radar has soured, and in 2021, Tesla decided it would be better off without radar and abandoned the sensor.
Hopefully, this can be the end of Tesla's Ross and Rachel radar relationship drama, and the two can now enjoy a long and successful partnership.
