Metrics Technologies, Verification 3.0, and Why EDA Can’t Ignore the Cloud Any Longer

They say that on a clear day you can see forever. When you look into the clouds, do you see System Verilog? In this week’s episode of Fish Fry, you will! Doug Letcher (CEO and President – Metrics Technologies) joins us to chat about details of the Metrics cloud platform, verification 3.0 and why EDA cannot ignore the Cloud any longer. Also this week, we check out a new robotic backpack developed at Keio University’s Graduate School of Media Design. (Spoiler Alert: It includes robotic hands and arms that are controlled by an Oculus Rift VR headset!)
