Interview With Shakeel Peera, Vice President FPGA Business Unit – Marketing, Strategy, Customer Applications at Microchip Technology Inc.

In this podcast, we speak to Shakeel Peera, vice president of the FPGA business unit – marketing, strategy, customer applications at Microchip, about how they are applying intelligence at the edge at Microchip and the numerous Edge AI applications that use Microchip products and solutions.

Running Artificial Intelligence (AI) models on the edge involves processing data locally within embedded systems, reducing latency and enhancing privacy by minimizing data transmission to the cloud. This approach enables real-time decision making, without requiring Internet connectivity, making it a great solution for applications that require immediate responses and high reliability.

From embedded vision, to human machine interface, to sensor analytics, Microchip supports a wide range of machine learning interface applications.

Beyond the Microchip

So much of our daily lives are controlled or influenced by electronics. We rely on GPS to direct us, we hit "brew" on our coffee machines for our mornin' cup of Joe, we wave our hands over a sensor to get running water from a faucet, and press a button to open our garage doors. 

But do we really know what's going on inside? Are we aware of the universe of technology and calculations going on right under our nose?

Beyond the Microchip takes you inside the world of Embedded Control technologies to understand how the chips and sensors we can't see impact our lives in dramatic ways. They remind us why we have and embrace technology, to enhance the human experience. 

Join us each episode as we look at an aspect of our daily lives that shapes what it means to be human and how we can empower the innovation that enhances that experience through Microchip Technology. Subscribe to Beyond the Microchip wherever you get your podcasts.
