Deploy Channel Sounding In Your Bluetooth Devices

Infineon Technologies Staff

December 16, 2025

Bluetooth Channel Sounding is a method of precisely measuring the distance between two Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) devices, down to just a few centimeters. In simple terms, it lets one device know exactly how far away another is. The technology relies on two complementary techniques: Phase-Based Ranging (PBR) and Round-Trip Time (RTT).

Engineering Real-Time: Lessons Learned While Chasing Determinism Part 4

Andrei Gorine

December 11, 2025

In Part 1 and Part 2, we looked at how EDF and PI scheduling support real-time database behavior, and why true timing guarantees also depend on precise measurement, predictable rollback, well-placed verification points, and profiling on real hardware.

iOmniscient Partners with Intel for Lightweight Predictive Maintenance

Ken Briodagh

December 11, 2025

One of the toughest challenges with solving predictive maintenance, enabled by AI, is that there is usually no data available for training the system. Modern equipment may not break down for 5 years or more so there is insufficient data when the product is first launched on when and how it will break down. But AI systems using traditional methods such as Deep Learning can only operate when sufficiently large volumes of data are available for training the system and hence, they are incapable of addressing this problem.

December 10, 2025

One of the most impactful areas for businesses to deploy AI is in digital signage. AI-driven digital can deliver personalized content, respond instantly to changing conditions, and make every interaction more meaningful. A challenge that comes with deploying this kind of AI-powered digital signage is ensuring the content is flexible enough to adapt to different display sizes or settings, or to simplify the content so it can fit any display.

Product of the Week: AAEON’s de next-RAP8-EZBOX for Industrial Robotics

Tiera Oliver

December 8, 2025

The industrial robotics landscape is continually evolving in response to increasing demands. Today’s modern robots must meet the requirements and continuous needs for smaller, more compact solutions in space-constrained environments, reliable system memory with high-performance operation that minimizes excessive energy consumption, and solutions that can react faster and make optimized decisions in safety-critical environments.

Advantech Teams With AMD To Maximize Performance at the Edge

Rich Nass

December 8, 2025

High-performance computing at the Edge involves systems that bring server-class processing closer to where data is generated. Instead of sending private information to the Cloud, devices at the network’s Edge, gateways, sensors, industrial controllers, cameras, and embedded AI platforms, run complex workloads locally. This is beneficial for applications like medical imaging, Edge servers, networking, and enterprise-level LLM (Large Language Model) deployment, and includes markets such as healthcare, industrial automation, smart cities, robotics, automotive, and advanced consumer devices. Its growth is driven by tighter latency requirements, rising data volumes, stronger privacy demands, and the need for more efficient, scalable distributed compute architectures.

Pattern AI Uses Intel to Create Edge AI Tools for Smart Delivery

Ken Briodagh

December 5, 2025

In warehousing, manufacturing, robotics retail and other supply chain delivery arenas, one of the factors slowing down crucial delivery times is an apparent shortage of agents to move products, but Pattern AI says this isn’t the case. Instead, it’s idle clustering of agents that leads to what seems like a shortage.

Engineering Real-Time: Lessons Learned While Chasing Determinism Part 3

Andrei Gorine

December 3, 2025

In part 1 and part 2 of this series, we talked about two key real-time scheduling algorithms and how they fit into our real-time database goals. We also covered why scheduling alone isn’t enough, and how precise time measurement, predictable rollback, well-placed verification points, and a bit of real-world profiling are what actually make “on time” possible.

We Must Embrace Innovation Where it Matters Most—on the Fab Floor

Joseph Cestari

December 3, 2025

The domestic semiconductor industry is at a critical juncture — with substantial investments, supportive policies, and soaring demand for artificial intelligence. Yet as the U.S. ramps up domestic production, I can’t help but wonder: are we on the cusp of unprecedented growth? Or are we teetering on the edge of a cliff?
