Embedded Computing Design

Precise and accurate high-resolution imaging is a requirement in many applications, such as medical/healthcare. You certainly wouldn’t want your surgeon looking at a display that wasn’t as crisp and clear and as fast-reacting as possible.

Our embedded industry continues to change as the industry evolves with the latest technologies.

Curved displays are nothing new, but as you would expect, there has been lots of innovation in the space.

AdaCore is one of the leaders in the Ada programming language. Ada has been around for a long time, and is time tested.

Edge visualization is one of those terms that if you ask 10 people for a definition, you’re likely to get ten different responses. To avoid that ambiguity, I went right to one of the sources of this technology, namely Jim Liu, the CEO of ADLINK Technology. As you might expect, it was not a simple answer.

Memory is taking on a whole new role in the automobile. This is partly because there is so much required and partly because the memory has to perform at much higher levels than before.

This is the first in a series of blogs highlighting vendors that will be exhibiting at embedded world in March of 2022

There’s been a changing of the guard at IAR Systems, but not necessarily a change in direction—sort of.

Infineon is undergoing a fairly significant change, in my eyes at least.
 

Embedded systems are specified for varying requirements, typically based on the application it will drive. It could be long life, low power, small size, or maximum compute power. If your application fits the latter category—maximum compute power—then the ADLINK Technology COM-HPC Ampere Altra server module likely fits the bill for you.

John Deere is pushing the envelope in the farming space.

Not all image sensors are created equally. That’s actually a pretty big understatement, as the applications for these devices varies widely. At the low end, the sensors could be in toys or consumer products that don’t require lots of precision. At the high end, are devices that may find themselves in medical applications.

The Holy Grail for mobile workers has always been the ability to dock their laptop (and other mobile devices) wirelessly. Wired docking has been around for decades and provides many advantages to the mobile user. Taking that application one step further and removing the physical connections has many advantages, but admittedly, it’s a non-trivial feat.

WiFi is on the move again. WiFi 6 is becoming more entrenched, but WiFi 7 is just around the corner. Are these new iterations really necessary, or is it just a way to get users to upgrade to the latest and greatest?

Aimed at smart enterprise applications like smart buildings and smart cities, Digi’s EX50 5G Enterprise Router is a 5G go-to product for primary backup, fixed wireless access. It could be used in a company headquarters to provide connectivity for backup or to connect multiple branches.

Performing accurate over-the-air (OTA) software updates sounds like a simple operation — we do it every day on our consumer devices. But performing that same operation with mission-critical machinery in less-than-ideal environments is potentially very difficult.

Novelda, a developer of accurate and reliable human presence sensors, recently released its latest Ultra-Wideband (UWB) sensor for smart home and building automation applications.
