This article explores TPU vs GPU differences in architecture, performance, energy efficiency, cost, and practical implementation, helping engineers and designers choose the right accelerator for AI workloads today!
From simple sensor control to connected, intelligent devices, embedded systems often outgrow a single MCU. Pairing an MCU with Linux adds power and flexibility, but also introduces communication challenges, dual development workflows, and increasing software complexity.
This article explores how automated CI/CD pipelines replace fragile manual build processes with reproducible, auditable workflows that improve compliance, reduce defects, and accelerate development in regulated embedded systems
Mario Mauerer, maxon's Global Business Development Manager, Robotics, discusses what it takes for robotic deployments to be successful in complex real-world environments.
Join Prof. Fei Chen as he explores advanced bimanual manipulation and teleoperation techniques shaping the future of intelligent human-like robots in this expert-led robotics session.
Without the coders, engineers, entrepreneurs, and innovators of tomorrow emerging from the classrooms—and soon—it will become increasingly difficult to advance society and tackle diverse global challenges. As things stand now, a global technology talent shortage threatens to stifle progress across all tech sectors.
The butterfly effect—the idea that a butterfly flapping its wings in South America could change the course of a tornado in Texas—has been a popular way to illustrate the difficulty of making predictions about the behavior of chaotic systems like the weather. Because such systems are extremely sensitive to their initial conditions, even the tiniest of changes can send their behavior careening off into unexpected directions.
Training robust AI models can be challenging when using crowdsourced or publicly available datasets. The most useful neural networks are ones that replace expert knowledge to solve real problems. One example would be a visual inspection model for the factory floor.
Smart lighting is a key component of smart commercial buildings and the connected home. Based on LEDs—which use at least 75 percent less energy, and last up to 25 times longer than traditional incandescent lighting, according to the U.S. Department of Energy (DoE)—combined with Bluetooth LE SoCs like Nordic’s nRF52, nRF53, and the forthcoming nRF54 Series, smart lighting brings illumination into the modern age.
As the IoT market is slowly maturing, IoT systems are becoming increasingly complex and versatile. As a result, embedded devices are composed of distinct firmware components made by different parties working together, often running on multiple MCUs simultaneously.
In this episode, we uncover the fascinating synergy between artificial intelligence (AI) and the urban design landscape to enable the mystical and sought after 15-minute city!
