Following the launch of the MediaTek Genio Pro at Embedded World 2026, Lucy Barnard speaks with MediaTek’s Sameer Sharma about unlocking the full potential of AI in IoT devices.
The discussion explores why the adoption of AI in edge devices has become inevitable, driven by factors such as data privacy, performance requirements for responsive systems, limited or unreliable internet access, and the need for sustainability and energy efficiency. Virtually every vertical in which IoT devices are deployed can benefit from some level of AI integration.
Looking ahead, Sharma predicts that both devices and AI will evolve from systems that require active user engagement into solutions that operate seamlessly in the background. Watch the full video to see the full insights.
