Latest Tech at Embedded World North America 2026

Check out the breaking news, videos, and podcasts at this year's Embedded World NA conference.

Welcome to Electronic Design's coverage of Embedded World North America 2026.

Editorial: Checking Out Embedded World NA

I'm headed to Embedded World North America in Anaheim, Calif. I won't get to see Disneyland that's across the way from the show, but I'll be looking and reporting on the new tech at the show. 

We'll add to this page in the future as some of the videos I'll be shooting will not be up until after the show. 

The show is much smaller than the version held in Germany each year, but it continues to grow.
