Embedded design is adding capabilities to IoT hardware and platforms while making them simpler and more cost-effective. Trends include AI at the edge, eSIM/iSIM, and software-defined components. This session will emphasize use-cases for the latest in IoT technology.
Learned algorithms are now working with sensors and actuators in more integrated ways than ever before in robots, vehicles, and other remote devices. These agentic workflows allow for devices to work autonomously, with less fixed programming, and with less human intervention. IoT connectivity and edge compute power form the backbone of these new applications. This session will look at the ROI evident in different use cases that can bring large returns but also risk.
Moderator: Robin Duke-Woolley, Analyst, CEO, Beecham Research Ltd
The eSIM allows for great flexibility in choosing connectivity providers around the world and is a proven technology, at this point. The iSIM integrates connectivity functions directly into central processors without additional hardware, allowing for design flexibility and reducing power consumption. This session will dive into the applications most suited for these next-generation SIMs – and explore where SIM technology is headed next.

IoT design principles that embrace security are absolutely critical in today’s attack environments, with choices to be considered from concept through the product life cycle. Moving security from “design” to “default” means assuring that users need not make adjustments to achieve high levels of safety. This session examines what the terms design and default means when sourcing IoT solutions, as well as update the audience on the IMC’s Joint Task Force on IoT security.
