ADAS Vehicles Will Hit Roads Soon. Should They?
By Ann Mutschler - 07 Sep, 2017 - Comments: 0

Adding fuel to the flurry of activity surrounding autonomous vehicles, yesterday afternoon, the U.S. House of Representatives voted unanimously to approve Bill 3388: ‘To amend title 49, United States Code, regarding the authority of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration over highly automated vehicles, to provide safety measures for such vehicles, and for other purposes.’ The... » read more

Let’s Talk About Securing Smart Homes
By Asaf Ashkenazi - 07 Sep, 2017 - Comments: 1

The global smart home market is expected to reach at least $40 billion in value by 2020. Perhaps not surprisingly, OEMs are inadvertently creating major security risks in their rush to market by shipping smart home products with inadequate security and unpatched vulnerabilities. As ABI Research Analyst Dimitrios Pavlakis notes, ignoring cybersecurity at the design level provides a wide-open doo... » read more

Improving Data Security
By Jeroen Dorgelo - 07 Sep, 2017 - Comments: 0

For industrial, military and a multitude of modern business applications, data security is of course incredibly important. While software based encryption often works well for consumer and some enterprise environments, in the context of the embedded systems used in industrial and military applications, something that is of a simpler nature and is intrinsically more robust is usually going to be... » read more

Combining CMOS IC And MEMS Design For IoT Edge Devices
By Nicolas Williams - 07 Sep, 2017 - Comments: 0

Creating a sensor-based IoT edge device is challenging, due to the multiple design domains involved. But, creating an edge device that combines the electronics using the traditional CMOS IC flow and a MEMS sensor on the same silicon die can seem impossible. For many years, Tanner has provided customers the ability to interweave MEMS design into this flow, supporting a top-down MEMS IC fl... » read more

Wearables Are Distributed Computing’s New Frontier
By Brian Fuller - 09 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

If you want to see the latest wearables, head to your local electronics or sporting goods store. But if you want to see the latest wearables that are leveraging machine learning at the edge, say hello to Monisha Perkash, Andrew Chang and their colleagues. Perkash and Chang co-founded Lumo Bodytech, a six-year-old, 30-person Internet of Things (IoT) startup that is not only shaking up the we... » read more

The Year Of Autonomous Cars
By Ed Sperling - 03 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 2

The move to fully autonomous vehicles is supposed to happen in 2021. Some carmakers say they will be ready by 2020. But a growing number of engineers and scientists who develop technology for this market don't believe those dates are realistic. Dozens of interviews conducted over the past several months point to a likely rollout of fully autonomous vehicles—steering wheel optional—somewh... » read more

Altering A Car’s Behavior With Updates
By Avinash Ghirnikar - 03 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

The electronic content inside a car is growing rapidly, which is having a big effect on the way in which different vehicles are designed and built. As a direct consequence of this, the biggest technical change is now beginning to happen – one that overturns the traditional relationship between the car manufacturer and the car owner. With many subsystems now controlled by microprocessors ru... » read more

5 Big Under-The-Hood Engineering Challenges In Building Autonomous Vehicles
By Puneet Sinha - 03 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

Stories about autonomous vehicles are regular fare in the tech news cycle and usually include forecasts about the eventual ascendancy of self-driving cars. The Boston Consulting Group, for example, says that by 2035, 25% of all cars will have partial or full autonomy, with total global sales growing from near-zero levels in 2015 to $42 billion in 2025 and ~ $77 billion by 2035. In short few ye... » read more

IoT Security Challenged By Evolving Threat Landscape
By Asaf Ashkenazi - 03 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

Many IoT devices on the market today lack effective security, making them vulnerable to attackers and easily compromised. This is problematic, because an unsecured IoT ecosystem introduces real-world risks that include malicious actors manipulating the flow of information to and from network connected devices or tampering with the devices themselves. This salient lack of IoT security was ill... » read more

How To Close Timing With An eFPGA Hosted In An SoC
By Volkan Oktem - 03 Aug, 2017 - Comments: 0

eFPGAs are embeddable IP that include look-up tables, memories, and DSP building blocks, allowing designers to add a programmable logic fabric to their SoC. The Speedcore IP can be configured to any size as dictated by the end application. The SoC supplier defines the number of LUTs, memory resources, and DSP64 blocks for their Speedcore instance. A short time later, Achronix delivers the IP as... » read more
