Complimentary registration.

Scaling AI into the Physical World

The next evolution at the edge is underway and it may be the fastest ever attempted: Physical AI systems that can perceive, decide, and act alongside us. Scaling intelligence into drones, autonomous vehicles, humanoids, and industrial systems demands requires new architectures built for latency, power efficiency, and trust.

 

Join Charles Dachs as he explores how lessons from nature may hold the key to engineering the next generation of Physical AI systems.

 

Presented by Charles Dachs, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Secure Connected Edge, NXP
