High accuracy is now a customer expectation when it comes to machine learning for object detection. But if you’re implementing #EdgeAI and your device still can’t tell a grizzly bear from a fire hydrant, then the data your model was trained on may be an issue. In this blog post, electronics designer Kevin McGrath shares how MistyWest achieved greater accuracy using the Edge Impulse platform to fine-tune the #YOLOv5s object detection model to perform inferencing using our off-the-shelf #MistySOM.

It's almost that time of year 🍾 ⭐🍸 MistyWest and Memfault are hosting the 8th annual FOUNDERS & FRIENDS in Las Vegas on Jan 9. Every year we bring together hundreds of key players in hardware for a "one-night mini incubator" during CES that fosters meaningful connections. Signature cocktails, live musical performances and interactive demos make it an event that can't be missed. Check out our highlight reel from the 2024 event.

When you're developing new #DeepTech, you should first start with the easiest use case. SafeAI, Inc. Founder and CEO Bibhrajit Halder shares how the company uses this approach for autonomy in mining in this clip from our panel discussion during SF Deep Tech Week.

MistyWest recently held our annual weekend retreat in Squamish, BC. One of this year's highlights was a group hike that split half of us onto the Sea to Summit trail and half onto the Climb ⛰ We thought Leigh Christie and his family turned back at the start, but they surprised us a bit later at the Gondola, having completed the trek with baby and toddler strapped on backs 💪 The experience was a great test of physical and mental strength for us all, but we made sure to recover in the hot tub and sauna that evening.

The performance and power efficiency of embedded vision systems is accelerating rapidly 🚀 WiFi protocols needs to be capable of continuous real-time data collection and support long-term deployments in remote or hard-to-reach areas. In this blog post, MistyWest firmware developer Ron Eggler shares how #WiFi6 is enhancing connectivity for high-bandwidth IoT edge applications.
