Baremetallics: Running YOLOv5 on a Microcontroller

From community member @daleonpz: "Running YOLOv5 on a microcontroller is no small task, given the model’s computational requirements (>20MB). In this post, I’ll share how I successfully ran a simplified YOLOv5 model on an ESP32 microcontroller and optimized it for performance and memory constraints, achieving a model size of just 23KB."

AT&T has stopped selling NB-IoT data plans and certifying NB-IoT devices

AT&T has stopped selling NB-IoT data plans and certifying NB-IoT devices, as it starts the process to decommission its NB-IoT network in the US entirely. The decision was taken as part of a strategy for “improving” its IoT services for enterprise customers, whose IoT devices will be moved to “alternative network technologies such as LTE-M”. It said the planning process to phase out its NB-IoT network in the US is underway. The project will be completed as early as the first quarter of next year (2025) Read more: https://www.rcrwireless.com/20241120/internet-of-things-4/att-quits-nb-iot...

Zephyr 4.0 Is Generally Available: Some Highlights

Today, is a release of Zephyr 4.0! It’s always interesting to see how, for each release, there’s always a couple of areas that go through a “sprint” and catch up on overdue refactoring and bug squashing, or that get a flurry of new features and improvements. This time around, storage and multimedia have been particularly active: a new secure storage subsystem brings PSA Secure Storage to all targets, ZMS (Zephyr Memory Storage) proposes a storage system optimized for next-gen memory technologies and, while Zephyr has had video & audio capabilities for quite some time, there’s been some really nice improvements on that front as well.
