Artificial intelligence requires compute horsepower, but more efficient algorithms and specialized hardware have made it practical for edge nodes.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming from a hot topic and buzzword to a real set of commercial solutions for business, industrial, medical, military, and consumer applications. The challenge in developing AI and machine-learning (ML) solutions ranges from determining what kind of AI methodology should be implemented to training and deploying AI- and ML-based solutions.
In this podcast, we talk to Sam Fok, CEO of Femtosense, a company working on using sparse AI for real-time edge applications with silicon, IP, and software tools to create neural networks.
An Army veteran, Alix Paultre was a signals intelligence soldier on the East/West German border in the early ‘80s, and eventually wound up helping launch and run a publication on consumer electronics for the US military stationed in Europe. Alix first began in this industry in 1998 at Electronic Products magazine, and since then has worked for a variety of publications in the embedded electronic engineering space. Alix currently lives in Wiesbaden, Germany.
