First Responder Robots and Virtual Prototypes

What’s the difference between a human and a pile of rocks? A robot algorithm! (Of course) In this week’s episode of Fish Fry, we check out a new robot being developed at the University of Guadalajara that utilizes a pattern recognition algorithm to determine the silhouette of a human body. Also this week, we delve into the trials and tribulations of SoC design with Bill Neifert of Carbon Design Systems. Bill and I chat about how Carbon is focusing on the automatic creation of  RTL-accurate models for integration into SoC designs and how you can make your IP configuration options a whole bunch easier.
