Thomas Lorenser, who works at Arm in the IoT line of business. At the Embedded World 2023 in Nuremberg Germany, Arm projects dominate, with many new announcements including the highly-performing M-class CPU called Cortex M85, pushing the boundaries of performance for machine learning, signal processing, and scalar workloads. There is a trend towards driving more compute capabilities at the edge, including machine learning and machine vision capabilities, which is extending into the microcontroller world as well. Himax integrates the Cortex M55 and Ethos-U55 to achieve neural network processing capabilities for machine learning in tiny applications. Arm Virtual Hardware is a project that enables software development to start before the hardware is available, and it provides a faster time to market and more simulation emulation. Finally, there is a program called Arm System Ready, which enables reuse of software development for individual platforms, thereby avoiding the need to reinvent the wheel for each individual platform.
