The IoT Show

"What is the most interesting, innovative or stupid IoT device or solution you ever encountered?"That was the introduction to a great conversation with Robert Wolff, developers champion during the IoT Stars event at Embedded World 2025 in Nuremberg.

[Live audio, excuse the background noise]Walt is on a mission to help ML companies grow up to become AI organizations and not fall into the common traps and misconceptions.

With Tom Dever, long timer in IoT, we discuss use cases, as well as industries readiness for Edge AI. We exchange on hardware architectures, containerization of models on embedded devices leveraging Atym, the role of hyperscalers and IT teams who can now leverage familiar tools to configure and manage edge infrastructures.

[Live audio, excuse the background noise]What role do IoT and Edge AI play in robotics, embodied intelligence and assured autonomous and distributed systems? Tinoosh Mohsenin, professor at Johns Hopkins University shares her perspective and insights into some of the research her and her teams are doing. No wonder why Tinoosh is so active in the Edge AI Foundation.

Ryan Treece works daily with industrials and oil & gas companies, helping them connect their assets. He knows exactly where they are at in their digital transformation and shares an interesting perspective on how Edge AI can change the way they are approaching that transformation. Some of the topics we cover are whether or not OT infrastructures and networks are ready for Edge AI? Will someone...

The startup Godel Space is on a mission to send Edge AI in space to implement earth observation using transformer-based models. Vikash Kodati tells us all about the constraints they have to take into account when running Edge AI on embedded devices that need to operate unmanned while delivering the right insights for humans to make decisions from down there on earth.

Software Engineer at Oracle by day and LLMs wrangler by passion, Wassim Kezai created a smart AI powered search engine called Snipesearch. In this interview, we discuss the importance of precise and contextualized search powered by generative AI at the Edge, how you can make AI hallucinating less by injecting a human bias, the importance of Edge AI as a tool to help humans make the right decisions...

Do you realize how similar (and different) Edge AI is today compared to IoT in its infancy? Don't believe me? Check out this short interview with Samir Bounab, seasoned fractional CRO who's been in the IoT space for some time now and has observed the emergence of Edge AI over the last few years.

Rob is a local, and tells us how vibrant Austin is before sharing his insights on what will make Edge AI successful. We also divert and geek out on distributing and orchestrating intelligence at the Edge, robotics, .NET on devices, the smartphone model and more.

Azure IoT Operations is now Generally Available and it's time we take a close look into the new Microsoft's solution to connect Operations to IT and business infrastructures and to the Cloud. Ranga Vadlamudi, PM in the Azure IoT team, walks us through an end to end demo of the main features of what is the incarnation of Microsoft's adaptive Cloud strategy.#IoT #IoTOperations #UNS #Indu...

Dr Scott Gerard, Distinguished Data Scientist, joins me on this new episode of the IoT Show to discuss what marked 2024 in IoT and what 2025 will look like. Scott has taken a particular interest in AIoT lately and has spent a lot of time observing and researching the intersection of AI and IoT, a.k.a. Edge AI and he has some interesting predictions to share. Connect with Scott on LinkedIn: https:/...

Running AI at the edge is already a feat, but what about making ML models so small that you can run them directly on tiny sensors? That's exactly what Neuton is about. In this new #IoTShow episode with Blair Newman and Danil Zherebtsov we discuss how they were able to achieve this taking a novel approach to optimizing Machine Learning for constrained devices.

What if some of the IoT technologies we think are essential are actually holding us back? Or rather, should we really be focusing and fighting that much around technology implementations? This conversation on the #IoTShow takes a wild turn when two IoT experts, whom I like to call the IoT Watchmen, Rob Tiffany, Director at IDC and Rob Van Kranenburg, Senior Policy and Communication expert, suggest...

Have you ever wondered how much power your IoT device really consumes and what the impact of your software has on energy consumption? I mean, really measured it? What if there was a way to know for sure, to optimize it as soon as during development and then leverage the same tools to do diagnostics and maintenance? "Energy is the key aspect, not really as a primary product feature, but to achieve...

IoT isn't dead, but it's been misunderstood. Why do so many IoT projects fail? The answer lies in solving real problems—not just showcasing shiny gadgets. Discover the story behind the AWS IoT button, a simple device that sold 50,000 units in 30 minutes. The secret wasn’t the technology itself—it was understanding and meeting a real-world need. Join Jinesh Varia, founder of Industrility, as he sha...

Do you remember the time when utilities sent employees to your parents' house to "eyeball" the water, electricity and gas meters once a year? That's no longer how this is done any longer. Nowadays meters have some sort of radio allowing utilities to just drive by the houses to collect meters data, which is obviously more convenient. But there is still someone who has to canvas streets in their veh...
