Evolution of In-Vehicle Networks to Zonal Architecture
As the automotive industry develops vehicles with increased levels of autonomous driving requiring more sensors and increased connectivity, it faces the challenge of transporting and processing a huge amount of data in the vehicle. To do this in an efficient way, it is necessary to reduce In-Vehicle Network complexity, power consumption and weight, leading to a change from domain-orientated network architecture to zonal architecture. Join this webinar to learn about this significant development in In-Vehicle Networks and how to test it effectively.In this webinar, you will learn more about:Evolution of In-Vehicle Network architectureAutomotive Ethernet characteristicsCompliance testing of Et..
IEEE Spectrum > ComputingDeepfakes Are Becoming a Cottage Industry
In December, as many people prepared to take off for a winter vacation, the creators of “South Park” announced US $20 million dollars of new funding for the duo’s deepfake studio, Deep Voodoo. The company’s press release says the funds will help it offer “unrivaled face-swapping visual effects to artists, producers, and creators around the world.”Deep Voodoo’s Hollywood connections make it particularly alluring, but it’s far from alone. Dozens of startups now offer services based on deepfake technology. The largest of these, London-based Synthesia, raised $50 million in 2021 and employs over 100. And this is likely just the start of the trend.“I think it’s fair to say tha..

Laying the Foundation for Extended Reality
Some observers say the metaverse is an expanded set of digital worlds that will grow out of the online environments that people are already familiar with, such as enhancing the extended-reality (XR) experience used in online gaming. The world they imagine is expected to offer new features and capabilities that accelerate society’s digital transformation and enhance sustainability by reducing the need for people to travel to meetings and perform resource-intensive activities.Others say the metaverse will usher in a decentralized ecosystem that empowers users to create digital assets of their own choosing and engage in digital commerce. Because the architecture would be open, decentralized, ..
