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).

On this episode of Embedded Insiders, we’re joined by Calista Redmond, CEO of RISC-V International, and Andrea Gallo, VP of Technology, as they dive into the organization’s latest technical breakthroughs, the evolving RISC-V software ecosystem, and how RISC-V is making an impact in the AI/ML sectors—and beyond.

Do you know what a software-defined vehicle (SDV) is? You likely have your definition, which may or may not be the “right” definition.

Just getting that baseline is where my discussion started with Ray Notarantonio, Infineon’s Senior Director of Vehicle User Experience in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast. We explored what’s possible with an SDV, when you should expect it, and what’s holding up the various aspects.

Bluetooth has been around for a quarter century. That’s a very, very long time in technology years. It’s evolved into one of the most omnipresent standards ever produced. That said, it continues to grow with new features and enhancements, which result in new use cases.

I spoke to Shantanu Bhalerao, the Vice President of Bluetooth Products for Infineon Technologies on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast to understand how that works and what's still to come for Bluetooth.

The advent of autonomous vehicles (AV) marks a shift in automotive technology, presenting advancements in mobility and introducing challenges in ensuring operational safety and security. As these vehicles edge closer to widespread adoption, the role of sophisticated safety mechanisms and stringent standards becomes imperative.
