Maher Matta, the President of the Americas division of Infineon Technologies agreed to join Rich and Vin on this podcast episode. The audience will likely relate to the route taken by Maher, as he came up through the engineering ranks, starting as a bench engineer. As you might expect, there were some bumps and bruises along the way. If you subscribe to the theory that the proof is in the pudding, the evidence is clear—the reign under Maher is working. The company is thriving and is a leader in many of the spaces in which it competes. Hear what Maher had to say about his rise through the ranks.

In this episode of Embedded Insiders, we're joined by Sriram Krishnan, BlackBerry's Head of Product Management, to discuss CylanceMDR, their AI-powered managed detection and response solution. We’ll explore how its XDR architecture enhances security by seamlessly integrating with existing tools, enabling more efficient threat detection and response.

We’ve talked a lot about the software-defined vehicle. This week, we are discussing the electrification of that same automobile on the Embedded Executives podcast.As you might expect, it means removing some of the car's mechanical components and replacing them with electrical components. As Sayeed Ahmed, a director at Infineon Technologies, states, the benefits of doing that are great, but there are still some issues to be solved and some tradeoffs. It has to do with software, semiconductor technologies, and so on.

Today’s demanding IoT and multimedia applications, like smart homes, wearables, and industrial IoT devices, are often deployed in increasingly crowded wireless environments, requiring high-speed data transmission, reduced latency, and secure communication for users to achieve a seamless wireless connectivity experience.

We spend a lot of time talking about the software-defined vehicle (SDV), and there are two very good reasons for that. One is that is it occurring, whether you know it or not or whether you want it or not. The second reason is that it is very complex, even if you’re just dealing with the HMI, as it all ties back together at some point.

To sort through the issues, I invited Marcelo Williams, a Global Senior Director for Infineon Technologies to be my guest on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Bluetooth audio has changed A LOT in the past few years. Things like voice assistants, multiple audio streams, and audio quality have been very limited by the old Bluetooth standards, but now Low Energy (LE) audio brings about a suite of new features and updates. Learn more about it here.

This whitepaper describes the growing/evolution of Bluetooth technology in industrial applications, specifically industrial Internet of Things (IoT).
