Unlike traditional systems dependent on memory buses and controllers, their solution features autonomous parallel cores with localized memory, eliminating bottlenecks and e...
Most conversations about edge computing gloss over the enormous challenge of actually deploying and managing software on constrained devices in the field. As Jason Shepherd, Atym's founder, puts it: "I've seen so many architecture diagrams with data lakes and cloud hubs, and then this tiny little box at the bottom labeled 'sensors and gateways' - which means you've never actually done this in the real world, because that stuff is some of the hardest part." Atym tackles this challenge head-on...
The landscape of artificial intelligence is experiencing a profound transformation, with AI capabilities moving from distant cloud servers directly to edge devices where your data lives.
