Embedded Computing Design

Blog Artificial intelligence is becoming a practical component of embedded systems, from predictive maintenance and motor control to machine vision, industrial automation, and smart building infrastructure. But as developers integrate AI into these products, they face a security question that extends beyond the accuracy of the model: Who controls the model, what data can it access, and how much of the system’s behavior can an attacker influence?

Video Hello Embedded Professionals, Engineers, and Developers! Welcome to In Case You Missed it, the weekly news show all about Embedded technologies and solutions from Embedded Computing Design. It’s Friday October 21, 2026, I’m Ken Briodagh, Editor in Chief of Embedded Computing Design and these are our top stories this week.

Podcast Just when you thought you’d heard all the different approaches to developing AI, another one comes along. Quadric claims to have done just that with an architecture that the company claims is cleaner and simpler than current approaches, yet improves performance substantially. Hear all about it from Quadric’s CEO and co-founder Veer Kheterpal on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

News Peraso Inc. announced the successful completion of a functional validation demonstrating high-speed wireless connectivity between a humanoid robot and an edge AI server using Peraso's mmWave technology. According to the company, the demonstration achieved sustained data rates of approximately 500 Mbps uplink from the robot to the edge server and 100 Mbps downlink, enabling continuous transfer of sensor, video, telemetry, and operational data.

Podcast On this episode of Embedded Insiders, SkyWater Technology's Senior Vice President of Engineering, Percy Gilbert, joins the podcast to discuss what it takes to engineer chips for quantum computing. We dive into the state of quantum computing today and the importance of having advanced manufacturing capabilities in the U.S. Next, Rich and Vin are back with another Dev Talk with guest Ranganathan SK, the Associate Vice President of Product Engineering Services at MosChip Technologies.
