The Embedded Boards of the Future are Here

This week Circuit Cellar aficionados we see the future rising in embedded boards.

The Embedded World event in Germany has garnered some major players going far out of their way to say AI is the ticket to the future.

It's not only ChatGPT but object and gesture recognition. Generative AI Large Language Models are all the rage, but in industry, especially in automotive, there is huge growth in AI.

The way it is looking now that growth will not slow for many years to come. We don't hear about the industry as much as we do consumer-facing products, and there are reasons for that. That being said, SoCs, SoMs, and SBCs have a huge market share as more and more of us take to the embedded landscape to design games and run multimedia.

As we grow, we move into new technologies never seen before, especially as people take up the mantle of users of AI.

In the new year we will be asking for opinions, what would you like to see, more editorial or less, more of a particular topic, or less? Let us know. Reach out to the Product Editor
