I’ve just been introduced to a technology that has the potential to revolutionize battery- and ambient-powered AI-enabled sensors using Bluetooth or WiFi while consuming only 1/1000th the power of regular Bluetooth and WiFi implementations. Intrigued? Read on!
Before we plunge into the fray with gusto and abandon, indulge me, if you will. I read a lot of science fiction. One of the … Read More → "AI at the Edge? Meet Wi-Fi in Microwatts"
Increasingly, I find myself talking to people who say something like, “We have a 1-, 2-, 4-, or 8-core proof-of-concept AI chip that can—in the future—be scaled up to 1,000 cores.” But this is the first time I’ve been told, “We have a real-world 1,000-core AI chip that can—in the future—be scaled down to 1-, 2-, 4-, or 8-cores.”
We’re talking about CMOS-based MEMS sensors that are 1,000 times smaller than their traditional silicon-based MEMS counterparts, offering greater bandwidth and higher sensitivity, while also being more cost-effective and reliable. Seriously—what’s not to love?
I’ve just been chatting with Dr. Josep Montanyà, who, along with Dr. Marc Llamas, founded Nanusens</ … Read More → "Want Nano-Scale, CMOS-Based MEMS Sensors?"
In a moment, I’m going to tell you about the slightest and slimmest Ethernet switches and routers you’ve never seen, but first… I’ve told this networking narrative before, and doubtless I’ll tell it again (it’s too good to waste). I graduated with my degree in Control Engineering in the summer of I980. My first position was in a … Read More → "Micro-Miniature Ethernet Switches and Routers"
Way back in the mists of time, in those halcyon days we used to call 2010, I was fortunate enough to be invited to speak at the Embedded Systems Conference (ESC) in Bangalore (now Bengaluru), India. Formally founded as a fort in 1537, Bengaluru offers an eclectic mix of stone watchtowers and ancient temples, spectacular colonial-era architecture, and gleaming technology parks and skyscrapers.
Something else … Read More → "Who Doesn’t Need Battery-Powered, Cloud-Free AI?"
