Advanced Power Conversion and Energy Management Solutions at TI (Part 2)
Residential energy storage is undergoing rapid innovation, driven by the need for efficient solar energy utilization and dynamic grid participation. Texas Instruments' Henrik Magnesson emphasizes that as feed-in tariffs decline and market-driven energy pricing becomes prevalent, homeowners will increasingly turn to battery energy storage systems (ESS) to store excess solar generation for use during peak demand, to charge EVs, or to exploit profitable energy arbitrage opportunities.

Packing Large AI Into Small Embedded Systems
Not every microcontroller can handle artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) chores. Simplifying the models is one way to squeeze algorithms into a more compact embedded compute engine. Another way is to pair it with an AI accelerator like Femtosense’s Sparse Processing Unit (SPU) SPU-001 and take advantage of sparsity in AI/ML models.
In this episode, Sam Fok, CEO at Femtosense, talks about AI/ML on the edge, the company's dual sparsity design, and how the small, low power SPU-001 can augment a host processor.

Autonomous Navigation in an Uncertain World
As navigation becomes increasingly vulnerable to jamming, spoofing, or complete denial, military forces operating in contested environments face significant challenges, not just in navigation, but in coordination, safety, and mission success. ANELLO Photonics has developed an innovative Silicon Photonics Optical Gyroscope (SiPhOG) to serve autonomous vehicles using silicon photonics, accelerometers, and gyroscopes for accurate and reliable positioning and navigation.
