As the common denominator in IoT, Arm architecture is taking a leadership role in enabling a transformative journey towards edge computing and scaling the AI and ML edge opportunity. John explains Arm’s plans to be at the forefront of growth in IoT as the edge AI ecosystem consolidates on Arm. With the recent launch of Ethos-U85, the Ethos NPU family, sits alongside the highly successful Helium Cortex-M instruction set, delivering the highest performance and efficiency for ML workloads. John also explores how the Corstone reference design platform is enabling faster time to market for our most innovative partners and offers a holistic approach to differentiated IoT design, delivering rapid innovation to provide ever richer hardware diversity and optimal performance for the widest variety of edge use cases. Finally, addressing the challenges of deploying AI and ML across such device diversity, John presents some of the software solutions and common standards that are removing the friction from deployment, enabling the product lifecycle support for underpinning regulatory compliance alongside rapid growth.
