Last week Joost van Straalen, electronics designer at Prodrive Technologies, gave an interesting lunch lecture about the development of our high-end NG2200-XP MRI Gradient Amplifier for 3.0T high field MR systems at e.t.s.v. Thor, the study association for electrical engineering students at Eindhoven University of Technology.

On Thursday 28 February, Prodrive Technologies will organize a new meetup / interactive colloquium. Abstract / subject during this evening: Gentle introduction to Fable: what it is, why it is awesome and the current state of the ecosystem. About Zaid: "Started my programming career as a hobbyist and got addicted to F# thanks to OSS and the awesome community. Mainly involved with building F# tools and libraries that encourage type-safety and focus on developer happiness."

MULTIple elevator cabins in a single shaft, the dream of every skyscraper architect and the wish of many people waiting in line for the elevator! Together with our customer thyssenkrupp Elevator we are at the verge of this technical breakthrough. End of 2015 we started the development of the propulsion system for an elevator without ropes but driven by linear motors instead. Using swivel platforms, the cabins can move both vertical and horizontal, which allows them to change shafts and thereby creating a fully independent paternoster elevator.

Recently, Prodrive Technologies has gained another partner in the student team: InMotion. InMotion is a multidisciplinary student team consisting of over 50 students from the Eindhoven University of Technology and Fontys. The goal of InMotion is to develop a fast charging technology for electric vehicles that reduces charging times to only a few minutes.

1882年，Nikola Tesla 做出了一项物理学的基础发现：旋转磁场。1971 年，Paul C. Lauterbur 在此基础上发明了磁共振成像，即MRI。经过多年研究，1977 年7月3日，第一张人体磁共振图像问世。三年后，FONAR Corporation 推出第一台商用 MRI 扫描仪。
