Connected device observability and diagnostics platform provider Memfault was selected to participate in the 5G Open Innovation Lab (5GOIL or 5G OI Lab). Memfault joins 11 other multistage startups participating in the fifth batch of the 12-week program.

Memfault announced expansion of their Android Operating System (OS) offering with the release of their Android SDK 4.0, adding new monitoring and over-the-air (OTA) update features.

You can’t avoid bugs in connected devices. Good firmware engineers acknowledge that end-users will eventually stumble across a bug no matter how rigorous the testing. When experienced by a critical mass of users, determining the root cause can be fairly straightforward. When the bug is rare or a one-off and can’t easily be reproduced at an engineer’s desk, finding the source is time-intensive and complex.

 Silicon Labs and Memfault announced their partnership integrating enhanced development and operations management tools with Silicon Labs’ EFR32 and EFM32 devices.

Memfault announced it has partnered with Alif Semiconductor to pair Alif’s Ensemble and Crescendo product families with Memfault’s cloud-based diagnostic tools purpose-built for embedded devices.  

More connected electronic devices means more code. And more code means more bugs. And more bugs means more continuous integration and continuous deliver (CI/CD) is needed to keep devices up to date without impacting end user experience.

The integration of the Memfault SDK provides Laird Connectivity customers free access to the Memfault platform, which enables them to accelerate product development and easily monitor and update products after release.
