What's New This Month: July 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.
This month, we’re all about empowering you to turn cutting-edge ideas into real-world solutions. Whether you’re scaling industrial automation, mastering embedded machine learning, or looking to level up your edge AI skills, we have the resources to help you make it happen. Let’s dive in.
[Blog] Model Cascading with VLMs: Driving the Future of Edge AI
If you’ve seen us at any trade shows in the first half of 2025 you may have noticed some toy cars on our booth. They're part of our exciting demo that gives a glimpse into the future of AI at the edge, using model cascading. Our demo automatically detects when a car comes into view of its camera, then triggers an onboard Vision Language Model (VLM) to gather a detailed description of the car. Lots of exciting potential for this new approach.
[Webinar] The Engineer’s Guide to Implementing Practical ML (with Arduino, Edge Impulse and DigiKey)
Get ready to roll up your sleeves and learn how real engineers are getting ML into their designs. No fluff, just a hands-on intro to edge AI for embedded engineers, using Arduino hardware and Edge Impulse.
If you’ve been putting off integrating ML into projects or you're unsure where to start, this is your entry point.
What you'll learn:
[Webinar] Data Quality and Pre-Processing for Edge AI Success
