No one will question the complexity of designing an AI solution that lives at the edge of the IoT. Wouldn’t it be nice if you had a head start on both the hardware and the software? That’s exactly what you get when you deploy your solution based on the Simply NUC Topaz, which hosts the latest 11th generation Intel® Core® processor. And this platform is not just for development – it can be used for deployment, too.

Wind River announced that they are jointly developing a 5G vRAN solution with Intel. The solution integrates Intel FlexRAN reference software for systems fueled by 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors with built-in AI acceleration, and also features Intel Ethernet 800 Network Adapters and the Intel vRAN Dedicated Accelerator ACC100 in concert with Wind River Studio.

AI Day is right around the corner (on September 9). One of the sessions will cover how you actually build an AI platform.

The company claims that its 2 nm research chip’s “tiniest components are smaller than a strand of DNA.”

Spirent Communications plc announced that Intel Silicon Photonics has completed the successful interoperability validation of its 800G Ethernet optical transceiver using the Spirent 800G Solution.

In this episode of the Embedded Insiders, Brandon and Rich wonder if residential solar power is really worth it. The question stems from Littelfuses’ release of 400PV Fuse series of photovoltaic solar fuses, which can be embedded directly into roof shingles or tiles. But with so much government meddling in the solar industry, and big energy looking to protect its existing interests, is it prudent, or even worth it, to bother with the technology?

Semtech Corporation announced a collaboration with Intel to develop optical semiconductor platforms for Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR).
