AI isn’t just transforming technology, it’s reshaping how businesses operate. With smarter models running on devices and continuous improvements over-the-air, manufacturers are shifting toward a service-based economy. What does this mean for device longevity and business models? Watch to find out.

There's a lot of confusion around Edge AI. Is it in the cloud? The edge of the network? In this clip, we break it down: real Edge AI happens on embedded devices. Processing data at the source enables zero latency, full privacy, and applications that wouldn't be possible otherwise. Watch to learn why AI at the true edge is a game-changer for robotics, IoT, and beyond.

Manual firmware releases? Not anymore. Developer Noah Pendleton shares how automation and CI streamline the entire process—from tagging in the Memfault SDK to pushing updates to ESP components. If you're serious about automation in embedded development, this one's for you.

The EDSB IDEA framework is widely used in IoT development, but how does it actually hold up? Developer Noah Pendleton shares his experience, breaking down its complexity, open-source components, and overall usability. If you’re considering it for your next IoT project, here’s what you need to know.

Everyone thinks of IoT as smart home devices and wearables, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. In reality, the biggest growth is happening in enterprise and industrial IoT—powering robotic farms, warehouse automation, and critical infrastructure. François Baldassari breaks down where IoT is thriving and why it's finally delivering on its promise.

On this episode of Interrupt Live, we'll meet Steeve Noonan, an Principle Embedded Systems Engineer at Nomo International, Inc. He'll share why he wrote the article " Why std::this_thread::sleep_for() is broken on ESP32". Interrupt Live is a series where we sit down with Interrupters contributors to hear more about their origin stories, engineering journeys, and the unique challenges that inspired their contributions. If you’ve ever wanted to hear directly from the engineers behind your favorite Interrupt posts, now’s your chance.

At Pebble, we built our dev board with automation in mind. With a four-channel FTDI chip and I2C current sensors, we could live stream power data and automatically test energy usage on every pull request. It was a software-forward approach to hardware development and a workflow we still miss.

Many hardware companies lose millions on RMAs and warranty returns, often replacing devices when a software update could have fixed the issue. Without data, it is hard to know what is really a hardware failure and what is just a software bug. Observability changes that by helping companies diagnose issues remotely, cut unnecessary returns, and keep margins intact.

It's not every day that commercial firmware gets open-sourced. In this clip, we talk about why it's so uncommon—and why it’s a huge learning opportunity when it does happen. From modern development practices to years of debugging edge cases, open-source firmware gives engineers a rare look inside real production code.

From smartwatches to earbuds, fitness tracking remains the most in-demand feature for wearables. At Pebble, we saw it firsthand—despite a programmable ecosystem, users cared most about step tracking, sleep monitoring, and health data. Now, Apple is integrating fitness features into earbuds instead of launching new devices. Will this shift how people track their health?
