Embedded Computing Design

Welcome to the fifth installment of Engineering Heroes, sponsored by Wind River, where we take a closer look at the lives of unsung heroes in the world of engineering whose work impacts uncountable lives across the globe. See the bottom of the article for additional content on Samer Mabrouk and our other heroes.

Infineon extends microcontroller portfolio with PSoC™ Edge family of products, bringing high-performance power-efficient machine learning to the edge.

Here are the nominees for Best in Show at the 2023 RISC-V Summit North America. 

Efficient Edge computing requires high-powered processing paired with robustness, resiliency, and reliability. Without those elements, the whole system is likely to break down, figuratively and literally, at the slightest pressure. It’s also quite likely to get hacked.

Durability, versatility, and customization are commonly the most determining factors regarding the use of open-frame touch monitors in industrial and embedded applications and environments. Eliminating the need for an enclosure or bezel, open-frame touch monitors excel at providing the aforementioned features, while also meeting the demands of rugged environments.

In this fifth installment of Engineering Heroes, sponsored by Wind River, we’d like to introduce you to Samer Mabrouk, a Postdoctoral Research Fellow and Georgia Institute of Technology.

Depending on who you’re conversing with, the “Edge” of the IoT may have different meanings. For the sake of this article, we are going to define it as that last computer that sits between the sensors (where the data is collected) and the Cloud. It’s very close to where the data is obtained and where the action must occur.

Among industrial applications, ESG is becoming more and more important. It’s also one of the key attributes of the NISE 3910 PC from NexAIoT. Based on an Intel12^th /13^th generation Core i3/i5/i7/i9 processor, the fanless platform is aimed at industrial IoT, Edge, and AI applications that demand high CPU and graphics performance. For example, AI and machine learning, or anything that involves Graphics computing and inferencing are prime candidates for the robust platform.

AMRs, or autonomous mobile robots, are becoming more common in the workplace. They can be a perfect fit for industrial and automation applications, given the right controller and software stack. On the hardware side, the system could include a host of sensors, including cameras, radar, lidar, etc. Then on the software side, you obviously need to link al those components together, and be sure you can communication both internally and externally.

On this episode of Embedded Insiders, we’re discussing cyber resiliency with Eric Sivertson, VP of Security at Lattice Semiconductor, specifically highlighting how organizations can benefit from implementing a personalized data security plan, and how FPGAs can help. 

From afar, you may not notice a big difference between the railroad cars today and those that ran down the track a couple of decades ago. However, you can be assured that when you peel back the skin, there are massive differences that have occurred, specifically with respect to the on-board computer systems.

In this fourth installment of our Engineering Heroes series, sponsored by Wind River, we honor Levi Zima, an RF Microwave Engineer. Levi was born in Oregon, spent several years of childhood in Wisconsin, and currently resides in Florida, just north of Orlando.

Industrial automation applications are often demanding, requiring specific reliability, durability, and long-term support features. This is why the industrial-grade motherboards within these applications are often specialized solutions with distinct characteristics such as ruggedness, a wide temperature range, security, remote management, and more.

PCIe FPGA cards, like typical FPGAs, are versatile semiconductor devices capable of being reprogrammed to perform specific tasks or functions for computing and data processing applications. Commonly used as accelerator cards in various computing applications, PCIe FPGA cards, like the Agilex series from BittWare, support accelerated computing, flexibility, real-time processing and much more.

Industrial electronic enclosures aid in protecting the electronic components and equipment used in industrial environments. Typically, these enclosures are specially designed to house and defend electronic devices, control systems, and sensitive instrumentation from environmental hazards and other unwanted interferences.

On this episode of Embedded Insiders, Randy Fish, director of product line management for the Silicon Lifecycle Management family at Synopsys, highlights how automotive engineers can benefit from the SLM on-chip monitoring and analysis process.

Embedded vision and processing applications benefit from hardware that is highly configurable with versatile integrated circuits that aid in the customization of a wide range of applications. Embedded vision, sensor fusion, industrial automation, medical imaging, IoT devices, and AI and machine learning are applications and technologies that are capable of processing data and accelerating applications with the help of an FPGA.
