And just like that, it's nearly time to say goodbye to embedded world 2025! ?? But before heading home, Thomas Foj and the team look back on three exciting days full of discussions, meetings, innovative exchanges and next generation technologies. We'd like to thank all of our customers, suppliers and visitors for stopping by at our booth. We wish you all a smooth and safe journey home!?? #EmbeddedWorld #Recap #AI #GenAI #Analog #Communications #Infrastructure #EngineersOfEvolution

Businesses have always faced difficulties knowing how much gas is left in their cylinders. This leads to?unplanned downtime, safety hazards, and increased costs due to running out of gas unexpectedly or potentially overfilling cylinders. We had the honour of inviting last year's winners of the Advanced Electronics Challenge, GasVisor, onto the Avnet Silica stand this year at embedded world Exhibition&Conference where they demonstrated their innovative all-in-one IoT Gas Cylinder Management Solution. Let Maximilian Betz, one of the GasVisor co-founders, walk you through the solution. ?? #IoT #CO2 #GasCylinderManagement #EngineersOfEvolution

Generative AI is redefining what customers can and will do with their systems across work and in personal pursuits. Micha?l Uyttersprot demonstrates the power of Generative AI in this Real-World Scenarios for Generative AI demonstration at embedded world Exhibition&Conference. This example illustrates how generative AI can power a fully realised podcast. Featuring AI avatars, Sophia as the host, and a specialised 'topic expert', the format fosters natural, engaging dialogue, leading to thought-provoking explorations of various subjects. Everything needed to power this Generative AI podcast is integrated into a small box that includes an AMD Ryzen 8000 used to run the LLM (Large Language Model).

Max Cavazzana was on hand at embedded world Exhibition&Conference to demonstrate two exciting analog and sensor solutions from onsemi. ???? Learn how to extend Ethernet to the edge with 10BASE-T1S, enabling cost-effective, real-time industrial connectivity over single-pair cables. This multi-drop technology reduces wiring, switch ports, and installation costs by up to 80%, making it ideal for Industry 4.0, automation, and smart infrastructure. And experience next-gen indirect Time-of-Flight (iToF) technology, enabling precise 3D depth mapping for robotics, automation, security, and AR/VR. With a stacked BSI global shutter, enhanced NIR response, and dual-laser operation up to 200 MHz, it delivers high-speed, accurate depth imaging, even in low-light conditions. #Analog #Sensors #Ethernet #iToF #EngineersOfEvolution

With the rapid expansion of electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, ensuring they provide both efficient, fast-charging capabilities and secure, trusted payment and interaction methods is critical. ?? However, while EV charging stations become ubiquitous, the use of QR codes at these stations introduces a new cybersecurity threat with broad implications: QR code phishing, also known as ‘quishing’. In this article, Harvey Wilson explores the dangers of 'quishing' in EV charging stations, examines the available technological solutions to counter these risks, and considers solutions that enhance the safety of EV charging for users and operators alike. ?? #EV #EVCharging #QRCodes #Phishing #Quishing #EngineersOfEvolution

Agriculture has evolved significantly over the last decade, primarily driven by integrating advanced technologies into everyday farming practices. ?? Traditional, manual methods are being replaced with automated systems that enhance efficiency and productivity. Among the most significant developments in this transformation is the rise of In-Vehicle Networking (IVN) technology — pivotal in modern farming, as it connects agricultural machinery and enables real-time, data-driven decision-making. But IVN is not simply about adding connectivity to machines. It creates an integrated communication network that optimises the entire farming process. ?? #InVehicleNetworking #IVN #Agriculture #Farming #EngineersOfEvolution

Avnet Silica colleagues David Pritchard, Baha Hashimi, PhD and Dimitrios Kolosov recently spoke at the Future Space - Bristol Beer and Pizza Social evening while running sessions and demonstrations on AMD Versal ACAP and Kria Technologies in the main networking area. Thanks to all of the undergrads and lecturers from the University of West of England & Bristol Robotics Lab and companies based at the Future Space Innovation Centre who joined us for an evening of innovative exchanges, beer and pizza! ???? #Social #AMD #Versal #ACAP #EngineersOfEvolution
