At Computex 2024 in Taipei, Taiwan, VIA Labs announced PortSense, a suite of manageability and intelligent connectivity features for USB Hubs that sets a new standard for docking station functionality in business and professional environments.PortSense is an exclusive VIA Labs hardware and software solution embedded in the latest revisions of VIA Labs hub products, and it enables supported products to retrieve USB descriptor information from connected devices, even without a host system. USB descriptors contain vital details about the connected USB devices, such as the device class and capabilities, the product name and manufacturer information, serial number if present, and much more.Typically, a host system uses this information to identify, configure, and interact with connected devices. However, with PortSense, a managed docking station can collect usage data, perform tasks like pre-configuration and device inventory, and assist in implementing corporate policies.PortSense is available in VIA Labs VL817 USB 5Gbps Hub and VL822 USB 10Gbps Hub. The VL832 USB4 Endpoint Device has an integrated USB 10Gbps hub and supports PortSense.While PortSense can function in autonomous mode, its true potential is unlocked when integrated into a connected platform where AI could be applied for analytics and policy control. Hubs with PortSense can communicate with an external controller using a standard I²C interface to share collected USB descriptor information and offer a range of manageability controls, such as enabling or disabling ports, changing connection speeds, resetting devices, and toggling USB battery charging.These controls can be applied on a per-port basis, including the upstream port, providing granular control over each connection. PortSense can be used to collect detailed user activity and enable analysis of usage patterns over time, making it perfect for hot-desking setups or as part of a comprehensive office management solution.With PortSense, VIA Labs is enhancing the modern workspace with more intelligent and connected solutions. The advanced capabilities of PortSense extend beyond basic data collection and control, providing valuable insights that help businesses manage their USB peripherals more effectively.For instance, IT administrators can use PortSense to maintain an inventory of connected devices, ensuring that only authorized devices are in use. In addition, the AI-Ready features of PortSense support enforcing security policies, such as maintaining an allowlist or blocklist of devices or limiting the use of specific USB device classes in sensitive areas.By acting as one layer of a comprehensive security strategy, PortSense helps reduce the risk of data breaches and unauthorized data transfers. This approach enhances operational efficiency and security, helping companies maintain a reliable and secure technology infrastructure. VIA Labs has recently released a white paper with more technical details about PortSense, which can be found here: https://www.via-labs.com/pressroom_show.php?id=98VIA Labs PortSense: An exclusive suite of manageability and intelligent connectivity features for USB Hubs

After announcing its foray into the LLM (Large Language Model) IP market, Skymizer recently unveiled a series of hardware and software solutions centered around LLM IP.These offerings are designed to bring more imagination to the LLM application service market. Skymizer's IP solution series is codenamed EdgeThought, with the first market-ready solution named ET2, capable of efficiently handling all current edge devices requiring LLM, including the recently released Llama3 with a parameter scale of up to 8 billion.Before introducing the IP solution, Skymizer's primary solutions were in the compiler space, bridging the gap between chips and software. This background has endowed the company with extensive experience in overall system hardware and software integration and optimization. As the demand for LLM rises, Skymizer, leveraging its solid market foundation, has entered the IP market to cater to diverse vertical application needs.Launch of integrated hardware-software platform: ET2 features edge computing, LLM, and AI inferenceAccording to Skymizer Executive Vice President William Wei, ET2 encompasses three key elements: edge computing, LLM, and AI inference. Besides accommodating various LLMs in the market, ET2 can flexibly expand computing resources to meet client needs.If the parameter scale of the LLM to be processed is too large, expansion can achieve the required computing power, naturally increasing memory capacity and power consumption. In addition to the existing IP solutions, Skymizer also launched the SkyGenie SDK (Software Development Kit).The SDK can address various categories of LLMs, including general, domain-specific, and private, assisting various industry applications.

This event also unveils Innodisk's new brand vision, "Architect Intelligence," bringing out its commitment to building intelligent solutions with global partners.Expanding Industrial Product Lines to Meet AI and Edge Serve StandardsReliable and high-performance memory and storage are essential for AI and edge computing, particularly as edge servers evolve and demand high data throughput and resilience in extreme environments. At Computex, Innodisk will unveil its first industrial-grade CXL 2.0 memory expansion, which is aligned with advanced industry standards and offers high scalability.The showcase will feature award-winning E1.S Gen4 SSD series, alongside wide-temperature SSDs tailored for edge servers, such as the E1.S/E3.S, available in various form factors. The range also includes 16TB high-capacity SSDs designed to meet the evolving storage needs.Further, Innodisk's recent focus on embedded camera modules for AI machine vision development is crucial for advancing edge AI applications. Debuting at Computex, the innovative "MIPI over Type-C" camera technology converts signal through exclusive adapter board design and enhances platform compatibility, significantly extending the length of MIPI camera cables.This unlocks applications in areas such as autonomous mobile robots (AMR) and shared mobility. Innodisk will also display a full range of camera module products for USB and MIPI interfaces.Innodisk is showcasing the exclusive MIPI over Type-C technology at Computex 2024AI in Action: Smart Cities and Industrial ApplicationsBeyond industrial modules, Innodisk integrates AI computing technologies with software, hardware, and third-party technologies to create various edge AI solutions. At Computex, Innodisk will introduce "InnoTracking," a smart people-tracking solution capable of accurately identifying and tracking specific individuals across multiple cameras and timeframes, enhancing public safety in cities, financial institutions, entertainment venues, and retail spaces.Under the simultaneous trends of ESG and industrial automation, worker safety in hazardous environments becomes a crucial focus for enterprises. Innodisk's PPE recognition solution uses an FPGA platform to process real-time images from four cameras simultaneously, ensuring workers maintain adherence to safety protocols. In case of violations, the system promptly notifies supervisors with detailed information to initiate appropriate responses.The "iCAP Air" air quality management solution addresses ESG requirements by combining patented air quality detection technology with sensors, edge servers, cloud management interfaces, and IoT ventilation controllers. This solution is suitable for smart factories and healthcare facilities, enabling real-time intelligent decision-making."Architect Intelligence" – Innodisk's Brand Strategy for the AI EraWith nearly two decades in the industry, Innodisk has elevated its brand and become a global leader in product technology. The new "Architect Intelligence" concept aligns with Innodisk's edge AI strategy, emphasizing the practical implementation of AI at the industrial edge.Under this concept, Innodisk integrates various product lines into nine intelligent series, each represented by diverse colors, symbolizing the limitless potential of AI applications and Innodisk's innovative spirit. Furthermore, these colored blocks represent the flexibility of solutions and collaborative effort to architect AI solutions with customers.See the future of edge AI in actions!
