In this episode, we explore how an Emmy Award-winning video codec is transforming industries far beyond the silver screen.
Dr. Siegfried Fößel from Fraunhofer IIS explains how JPEG XS – a compression standard designed for broadcast production – now enables breakthrough applications in autonomous vehicles, industrial automation, and remote healthcare.
With a latency of just 32 lines end-to-end and visual lossless quality, JPEG XS solves a critical challenge: how to process high-resolution video in real time without introducing delay. When autonomous cars need to analyse multiple camera feeds in real time, when factory robots require split-second reactions, or when surgeons control remote instruments, every millisecond matters.
Siegfried discusses the journey from keyboard-video-mouse extenders to ISO standardisation, the technology's adoption in sports broadcasting, and why tier-one automotive suppliers are testing it for sensor fusion. We explore how the codec integrates into FPGAs for embedded cameras, its constant bitrate advantage for IP transmission, and the future of AI-based video compression.
Tune in to discover how low-latency video compression unlocks applications that weren't possible before – and what's coming next in the race to process visual data faster.

Artificial intelligence is moving to the edge - and it's changing how factories operate, farms grow crops, and robots navigate the world.
In this episode, Monica Houston from Tria Technologies walks us through Tria's Vision AI Kit 6490, an industrial-grade edge computing board that processes five camera feeds simultaneously, runs inference locally, and handles demanding tasks like image segmentation - all without needing cloud connectivity or even a cooling fan.
Monica discusses real-world deployments in agriculture (spot-treating crops to reduce pesticide use), factory robotics (autonomous mobile robots and robotic arms), and the practical challenges of moving AI from comfortable data centres to harsh industrial environments. We explore why latency matters, what happens when you can't rely on internet connections, and why power efficiency is the unsung hero of edge AI.
If you've wondered whether edge AI is ready for industrial prime time, this conversation delivers the answer - with hardware in hand.

In this episode, we explore how accessible AI vision technology has become - and the surprising challenges that come with it.
Luke Walsh from Brainboxes built an AI rock, paper, scissors game using open-source software and hardware costing under £1,000. The playful demo masks serious industrial applications: from catching defects in car seat stitching with 22 cameras to monitoring hazardous environments without putting maintenance engineers at risk.
The conversation covers the technical realities of sub-200-millisecond latency, the stubborn resistance of factory maintenance teams, and why Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) has been the missing piece in factory automation. Luke explains how vision systems can now replace invasive sensors, monitor quality without human inconsistency, and prove their worth to sceptical teams - one tote bin at a time.
Tune in to learn why the best way to deploy AI in factories is to start small, prove value fast, and never assume your training data covers every possible hand gesture.

In this episode, we explore how engineers are embedding powerful AI directly into hardware – no cloud connection required.
Michaël Uyttersprot from Avnet Silica and Cedric Vincent from Tria Technologies reveal how they run ChatGPT-quality language models on resource-constrained embedded devices. What once demanded data centre infrastructure now fits onto chips with just 2GB of RAM.
The conversation covers the technical challenges of cramming billion-parameter models into embedded systems, real-world applications from conference rooms to industrial robotics, and the three compelling reasons driving this shift: data privacy, power efficiency, and cost control.
Michaël and Cedric discuss hardware platforms from AMD, NXP, and Qualcomm, explain techniques like quantisation and mixture of experts, and demonstrate applications including a vintage telephone box that lets you call avatars from different time periods.
Tune in to learn why the future of AI might not be in the cloud at all – and what that means for industries from manufacturing to healthcare.

In this episode, we explore a hidden crisis affecting thousands of buildings worldwide with Martin Mentzel, CEO of the German company Safesquare.
For thirty years, Local Operating Network (LON) technology has quietly powered building automation systems in hospitals, office buildings, and transport infrastructure. Now, critical components face end-of-life as manufacturers discontinue essential neuron chips, leaving companies scrambling for solutions.
Some companies need 8,000 replacement controllers per year that simply don't exist. Hospital operating rooms, lift systems, and building HVAC networks all depend on technology becoming impossible to maintain.
Martin discusses how Safesquare's babi-LON platform replaces discontinued components without forcing expensive system redesigns. We examine why LON technology has endured for three decades, the scale of the component shortage crisis, and how innovative engineering preserves critical infrastructure investments.
Tune in to discover how one company transforms an industry crisis into an opportunity whilst keeping essential systems running.

In this episode, we explore the remarkable growth of LoRaWAN with Alper Yegin, CEO of the LoRa Alliance. This non-profit consortium has spent a decade building the world's most successful long-range, low-power network standard outside China.
With 350 members, including Amazon, Comcast, Verizon, and Airbus, the Alliance has created technology that now connects 125 million devices globally - from temperature sensors in over half of North America's Starbucks stores to tracking collars on endangered black rhinos across 35 African national parks.
Alper discusses how LoRaWAN achieves ranges up to 600 kilometres whilst consuming as little power as a garage door opener, why major enterprises choose between public and private networks, and how satellite integration creates planet-wide IoT coverage. We explore real-world deployments that save lives and bottom lines, including 700,000 panic buttons across North American schools and hospitals and 5 million water meters across France.

In this episode, we explore the critical intersection of IoT technology and railway infrastructure with Oliver von Sperber, Managing Director at AXO Track, a German startup transforming railway switch maintenance.
Twenty per cent of train delays stem from switch malfunctions, costing operators millions and frustrating passengers worldwide. Oliver and his team address this challenge through IoT sensors that monitor railway switches in real time, detecting problems before they cause expensive breakdowns.
Oliver brings unique expertise to this problem. He founded AXO Track after running both an investment bank and a sensor technology company. He even completed training as a railway switch mechanic to understand the technical challenges firsthand.
We discuss the journey from manual maintenance to predictive maintenance, the technical challenges of deploying sensors in critical infrastructure, and how smartphone technology has made railway IoT economically viable.
