[Blog] How FPGAs Can Push AI to the Edge

Posted 09/25/2025 by Bob O’Donnell, president and chief analyst of TECHnalysis Research, LLC

Everyone, it seems, is now talking about how they’re planning to integrate AI into their devices, their factories, their workflows and, well, everything. But how they actually plan to make that happen isn’t always clear. Part of the challenge, of course, is that different workloads and different environments require different types of solutions. For those looking to integrate AI-powered capabilities into edge computing-based offerings, there are a relatively broad range of ways to ac...

[Blog] Building Intelligent, Context-Aware HMI at the Far Edge

Posted 09/18/2025 by Hussein Osman, Segment Marketing Director, Lattice Semiconductor; Ricardo Shiroma, Director of Business Development, Lattice Semiconductor

Human-machine interfaces (HMIs) are rapidly evolving, driven by trends such as Automotive personalization, sustainable always-on interfaces, hygienic touchless user interfaces (UI), consistent user experience (UX) across platforms, voice activation, and Industrial automation for labor and safety needs. Regardless of their specific drivers and/or use cases, modern HMIs must be smarter and more dynamic – shifting from command-based to context-aware systems that bridge the human-machine...

[Blog] AI at the Edge: Transforming Automotive and Industrial Systems

Posted 08/08/2025 by Hussein Osman, Christian Mueller, Karl Wachswender

Edge AI is reshaping how machines interact with the world, bringing intelligence closer to the data source and enabling real-time, context-aware decision-making. In Automotive and Industrial environments, this shift is driving smarter sensors, automation, and enhanced Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI). But deploying AI at the edge comes with constraints: limited computing capacity, strict power budgets, and compact hardware footprints. In our latest LinkedIn Live panel discussion, Lattice expert...

[Blog] Powering Real-Time HMI with Lattice’s Edge Vision Engine

Posted 07/22/2025 by Hussein Osman, Segment Marketing Director, Lattice Semiconductor

In the past, Human Machine Interface (HMI) were relatively simple, consisting of buttons, knobs, levers, and static displays designed to control basic functions. Today, HMIs have evolved into sophisticated, context-aware systems that serve as the primary bridge between users and increasingly intelligent machines. Whether embedded in vehicles, Industrial equipment, consumer electronics, or smart infrastructure, modern HMIs must manage a growing array of tasks. These include real-time data vi...

Contextual AI: Enhancing Edge Intelligence with FPGA Technology

[Blog] Contextual AI: Enhancing Edge Intelligence with FPGA Technology

Posted 02/13/2025 by Hussein Osman, Director, Segment Marketing

Edge AI — implementing AI models on Edge devices to process algorithms locally rather than in a centralized computing location, like the cloud — has garnered significant attention as one of the fastest developing areas of artificial intelligence. Calculated at roughly $21 billion USD in 2024, the Edge AI market is expected to reach over $143 billion by 2034. This signals a sustained focus across industries on the development of AI-powered Edge systems. New opportunities for Edge AI ...

Technologies for a Driverless Future

Posted 09/12/2017 by Jatinder (JP) Singh

I took my 15-year-old to her first big concert recently - Roger Waters’ Us + Them tour. If you are wondering where am I going with the blog on automotive technologies and talking about Roger Waters, stay with me for a second. She and I both loved the concert, however, as I drove to and from the concert, I struggled with the stress of congested traffic and getting in and out of the parking lot. During those high-stress moments I imagined how wonderful it would be to have an autonomous car that would pick me up and drop me off and navigate through the mess while I could relax.

Bridging Advances Bring Better Design Options

Posted 05/24/2016 by Grant Jennings

Change is constant for embedded video system designers. Over the last few years designers have seen systems that incorporate mobile application processors with an entirely new level of capability, the adoption of new standard interfaces originally developed for the mobile consumer market, and the introduction of a new generation of lower cost image sensors and displays.
