Embedl Exhibits at the 11th Annual American Aerospace & Defense Summit 

We’re excited to announce that Embedl will be exhibiting at the 11th Annual American Aerospace & Defense Summit, taking place on December 4–5, 2025, at the Renaissance Phoenix Glendale Hotel & Spa in Glendale, AZ.

Visit us at booth #46 to see how advances in AI optimization are transforming defense systems at the edge, and solutions needed for operational advantage now.

Why Defense Needs Edge AI Now

In modern defense operations, edge AI has become mission-critical. As sensors deliver increasingly high-resolution and multi-modal data streams, the old model of sending everything back to centralized servers no longer works. Connectivity is unreliable, latency slows decision-making, and power budgets are extremely tight.

Processing data directly on devices such as UAS, UGV, USV, handhelds, or fixed sensors is essential for enabling platforms to see, decide, and act instantly, even in the most contested or disconnected environments. The need for immediate action has never been greater.

The Latency, Bandwidth, and Reliability Challenge

Operators in degraded comms environments recognize urgent obstacles: narrow bandwidth, jammed links, and unpredictable dropouts. On-device inference sends only critical insights, ensuring bandwidth preservation and maintaining mission tempo when it's needed most.

Ruggedization, SWaP, and Mission Constraints

Defense environments introduce heat, vibration, dust, saltwater, and relentless SWaP pressures. Unlike generic AI solutions, Embedl Studio produces compact, efficient, and robust models that run reliably on limited compute without sacrificing accuracy, tackling these challenges head-on.

What Is the Embedl Studio

The Embedl SKD is a specialized software toolkit that uniquely optimizes and deploys deep learning models on embedded hardware, facing strict SWaP, lifecycle, and compliance requirements. It gives developers fine-grained control to build smaller, faster, and more reliable models than generic toolchains.

Core Capabilities

  • Neural architecture search for hardware- and mission-aligned designs
  • Profiling & benchmarking tools for latency, throughput, and power
  • Visualization tools to explore bottlenecks and quantization effects
  • Mixed-precision search
  • Quantization-setting search
  • Structured pruning and sparsity

Supported Hardware

Arm CPUs, embedded GPUs, NPUs/accelerators, DSP-centric SoCs, and real-time embedded platforms.

Secure, Reproducible Pipelines

Embedl delivers deterministic builds, offline workflows, and artifact locking, providing the supply-chain transparency and reproducibility that defense programs require, and integrates more seamlessly into secure CI/CD environments than generic tools.

Why Optimization Matters for Defense Edge AI

Optimized AI models deliver major benefits in fielded systems:

  • Lower latency & higher throughput for real-time detection and tracking
  • Reduced power consumption, extending battery life, and thermal margins
  • Shorter development cycle, develop new capabilities in weeks rather than months
  • Improved robustness in dust, fog, heat, and other harsh conditions
  • Lower total cost of ownership by extending hardware life and reducing integration cycles

Visit Embedl at Booth #46

Whether you’re building AI for tactical UAS, unattended ground sensors, naval perimeter monitoring, or vehicle situational awareness, Embedl provides the tools to make your models faster, lighter, and mission-ready.
