Accelerating 4D Imaging Radar with Vision 4DR


4D imaging radar enhances automotive sensing by adding elevation to traditional range, velocity, and azimuth measurements. This enables better target detection and classification, enabling safer driving decisions. Multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna technology has expanded the role of radar sensing from tracking moving targets to high-resolution imaging of the surroundings. High... » read more

Changes In Chip Architectures At The Edge


Edge computing is all about low latency, within a tight power budget, and with sufficient performance. This is very different from an AI data center, where the real focus is on data throughput between processor and memory. Achieving those goals requires a focus on what different processing elements bring to the table. Nigel Drego, co-founder and CTO of Quadric, talks about how these different c... » read more

Programmable Chips Evolve For Shifting Needs


ICs and SoCs are utilizing a range of processing elements that allow them to optimize current workloads while hedging their bets for the future. What used to be a simple choice between an ASIC, FPGA, or DSP, has evolved into a mix of processor types and architectures, including varying levels of programmability and customization. Speed is essential, but technology is evolving so quickly that... » read more

That’s Not A DSP!


In the 1986 hit comedy movie "Crocodile Dundee," the title character – a rough and tumble Australian transported to the mean streets of New York City – is confronted by street thugs brandishing a switchblade knife who demand his wallet. In response he cooly smirks and pulls a knife out of his belt that is 10 times the size of the would-be assailants’ weapon and delivers the signature line... » read more
