What's New This Month: August 2025 Edition
Edge Impulse (a Qualcomm company)
Edge Impulse offers the latest in machine learning tooling, enabling all enterprises to build smarter edge AI products.
The last newsletter of the summer is here and it’s loaded with real-world learning opportunities to help you accelerate your AI projects, and solve the problems that are holding you back. Let’s dive in.
Imagine 2025 Is Back!
Leading edge AI experts are ready to pull back the curtain at Imagine 2025. From the “Arduino Way” to AI, to Acoustic-Based Automotive Diagnostics, to Real-Time Multimodal Edge AI, we have an agenda jam-packed with sessions that help you gain momentum on your edge AI initiatives.
Plus...
In-person Imagine attendees can participate in two hands-on workshops:
Building Better Datasets: Learn best practices for collecting and curating high-quality data, and build robust datasets to power your edge AI models.
From Dream to Device: Go from concept to deployment in a hands-on session that walks through building a tracking-based AI solution and deploying it to Android.
There's more to come. Secure your in-person or virtual spot today.
[New Webinar] Anomaly Detection Anywhere
Envision cellular communications going dark the moment a vehicle departs coverage, leaving fleet operators blind to location, to warning signs of mechanical trouble, and to potential issues with their assets. These and similar scenarios can be avoided if you know how to solve the problem.
Join experts from Edge Impulse and Blues for this webinar where they will unveil a full end-to-end stack: Blues Starnote supplies low-power, always-on satellite backhaul that keeps fleets visible long after cellular fades, while an Edge Impulse-trained model runs locally on an OBD-II-connected host MCU to sift raw engine and environmental data in real time.
[New Webinar] Rapid Deployment of Edge AI in Industrial Applications
Join Edge Impulse and CODICO GmbH for an exclusive webinar showcasing a powerful new solution to rapidly develop and deploy computer vision and AI technologies for defect detection, anomaly detection, and other automation use cases across industrial markets.
What you'll learn:
Key trends in industrial automation today and what’s coming next
The shift to Edge AI in factories, warehouses, and industrial settings
Business case: How computer vision and AI reduce costs and improve quality
Overview of Edge Impulse's end-to-end AI development environment
Live walkthrough: Build an anomaly detection model in minutes
