Open source hardware developer Seeed Studio has released two new wireless development boards designed for a wide range of battery-powered IoT applications including wearables, smart home, industrial IoT and smart sensing. Both the ‘XIAO nRF54LM20A Sense’ and ‘XIAO nRF54LM20A’ development boards are powered by Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF54LM20A SoC, and integrate its nPM1300 Power Management IC (PMIC). The XIAO nRF54LM20A Sense also includes a 6-axis IMU and a digital microphone, allowing developers to prototype voice, audio, motion and gesture applications without additional hardware.

Industrial AI, digital twins, cyber security, electrification and advanced automation are moving rapidly from the innovation agenda to operational reality. For UK manufacturers, the challenge is no longer whether these technologies matter, but how to apply them in ways that improve productivity, strengthen resilience and support long-term industrial capability. This shift will be reflected at Advanced Engineering, which returns to NEC Birmingham on 4–5 November 2026, co-located with UK Metals Expo and Lab Innovations.

Nordic Semiconductor, a global contributor in low-power wireless connectivity solutions, has announced a faster path to satellite and cellular IoT. Embedded modem innovator LooUQ‘s MTC2-N9151 has earned Skylo Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) certification, building on Nordic’s own Skylo-certified nRF9151 to reduce time-to-market for IoT product developers.
Water technology company Remsight is already deploying the compact, drop-in embedded modem from LooUQ to monitor water infrastructure across the American West, reaching the field much faster and at lower cost than it would have building their own solution from scratch.
