The continuous battle when designing Edge AI and autonomous machines is balancing size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C) requirements. NVIDIA’s newest embedded platform opens possibilities for AI projects with unparalleled size vs. power capabilities. Join Connect Tech and NVIDIA’s embedded experts...

IoT systems tend to be thought of as a “clean slate” environment where historical systems have no bearing. This couldn’t be further from the truth when considering Industrial IoT. IIoT must be an extension of the existing industrial systems in order to enable a new business model without disrupting...

Elements of the Sensor Open System Architecture (SOSA) technical standard are leveraging standards developed by the VITA Standards Organization, specifically VITA 65, also known as OpenVPX. VITA has also become a participating member of the SOSA Consortium along with the Air Force, Army, and Navy. T...

This webinar looks at how FreeRTOS is the ideal starting point for embedded applications, even those that target a safety critical application. Follow along at home with the NXP FRDM-K64F as we see the differences between FreeRTOS and the safety critical RTOS SAFERTOS®; why these differences are nec...

The pandemic presented new challenges for patient monitoring. Safety concerns and staff burdens shifted dramatically, creating a pressing need for inpatient telehealth strategies. As healthcare providers transition into a recovery phase, what can we learn from this experience?

Untrustworthy software can have a significant impact on industrial systems. That impact could range from machine down time to lives being at stake? Do you want to bet your company’s assets on untrustworthy software over the complete lifecycle of your equipment? In this webinar, we will provide a hig...

IoT can be described as the “wild west” of the RF world as it is an expanding frontier with a diverse array of technologies and multiple standards from different organizations, bringing challenges for embedded developers. However, it’s crucial that developers have confidence in their chipsets, modul...

Thanks to modern sensors, networked communications, wearable computing today’s warfighter is inundated with data whether piloting a jet, performing Special Operations, or analyzing data from an unmanned aircraft’s ISR payload. To avoid being overwhelmed, they need the data to be filtered reliably, a...

FACE Technical Standard, Solving Portability and Affordability Challenges in Avionics. Currently about 70% to 90% of aircraft avionics capability is implemented in software. That level is unaffordable and unsustainable. The Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE) Technical Standard was develop...

ADAS, AI, and autonomous vehicles are lumped together, for good reason; they all feed off one another. Can one advance without the other? Probably, but not nearly as seamlessly. This webinar will look at each of these elements separately, but then dive in on how they need to operate cohesively.

The connected factory vision involves organizing the factory floor, IT, and business systems to optimize efficiency, reduce risk, increase agility, and spark innovation. This vision requires a new level of interoperability between factory, IT, and business operations. Machines must be integrated. So...

Advances in embedded electronics, such as hardware miniaturization, have allowed for substantial increases in processing power, tighter integration of peripherals and savings in power consumption. These advances have enabled innovations like assisted driving and electrification in cars, and intensiv...

Autonomous vehicle system software is becoming more complex as we move towards greater levels of autonomy. Moving from one level of autonomy to the next requires an increase in the complexity of the system software by a factor of 10x or more. How do we build the right system software architecture th...

Reduced size, weight, and power - cost (SWaP-C) describe nearly every military program’s requirements for electronics — be they tech refreshes or new Radar designs. System integrators want solutions with increased performance, lower power, and lower costs and they want them in the same or smaller fo...

Choosing the right architecture for highly and fully automotive driving is a bet on the future of the industry and the success of your company. Where speed to market is critical, a platform that supports rapid development, a wide variety of future use cases and massive data flows is imperative. You...

Autonomy will profoundly reshape the automotive competitive landscape. For decades, traditional OEMs competed on driver experience, engine performance, styling and cost. In a world with no drivers, no engines and no car ownership, none of these factors matter. Worse, rather than lowering costs, form...

With the global pandemic changing lives, our healthcare system is pushed to adapt and evolve – faster than ever. Through the combination of telecommunication and healthcare, the demand and necessity of telehealth is rapidly growing and changing the virtual care dynamic among healthcare providers and...
