Embedded Computing Design

Smart factories are fairly new concepts, but have evolved more in the last decade than in the 50 years prior. First, a smart factory is an advanced manufacturing facility that employs cutting-edge technologies such as the IoT, AI, and automation to optimize the entire production process.

Welcome to the third 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 Valentyn Hlukhotskyy and our other heroes.

As the world becomes more connected, we are met with the demand that our personal devices and at-home solutions should be too. Most of today’s versatile wireless communication solutions are designed for various devices, such as routers, access points, and smart home devices, like surveillance cameras, in order to support the transition to a smarter and more connected world.

Industrial Embedded Computers are critical to IoT, AI, Machine Learning and Edge Computing applications thanks to their optimized bandwidth, low latency, flexibility, scalability, and reliability, paired with advanced security and privacy capabilities.

The use of modular nodes in industrial computers promotes adaptable, specialized, and reliable computing solutions that are not only designed to meet the demands of industrial environments, but also support additional capabilities and changes as the industrial Edge AI industry continues to grow.

In the second installment of our Engineering Heroes series, sponsored by Wind River, we honor Nandini Kappiah, a Senior Director of Software Engineering at Google.

At any given moment, seven scientists, engineers, and pilots are floating 250 miles above our heads. They are the crew of the International Space Station, and they are orbiting the planet at 17,500 mph.

Meet Daire McNamara. Daire lives above a boarding school just outside Limerick, Ireland. He enjoys running, collects art, and is doing his best to learn French.

Typically developed as a comprehensive package for hobbyists, students, and engineering professionals alike, a robotics starter kit is an accessible and organized way for individuals to expand and explore new skills to develop machine vision, factory automation, and industrial communication and control applications.

The efficiency, reliability, and performance of AI inferencing, deep learning, vector processing, and other specialized workloads often rely on the ability to leverage functional hardware that supports the offloading of tasks, real-time processing, and energy efficiency to increase the overall system throughput and reduce processing bottlenecks.

Welcome to the podcast portion of our Engineering Heroes series, where we recognize design engineers and developers who do amazing work that impacts countless lives around the world.

Mini industrial motherboards, like the mini-ITX (mITX) motherboards, are designed to provide the reliable and rugged operation of traditional industrial computing boards in a compact form factor that doesn’t sacrifice performance.

Machine vision, sometimes referred to as computer vision, is a subset AI that lets computers interpret and understand visual information from the world. It involves algorithms and systems that allow machines to "see" and comprehend images or videos, similar to how humans perceive and understand the visual world.

Scottsdale, AZ (August, 1, 2022) -- Embedded Computing Design (ECD) is thrilled to announce a new addition to its staff, Senior Technology Editor Ken Briodagh. Starting immediately, Ken comes to ECD with vast experience in the embedded and IoT industries.
