Simulating Reality: How Advanced Vibration Testing Shapes Product Durability
April 8, 2025
The results of advanced vibration tests show manufacturers, designers, engineers and others whether their products will perform as anticipated in the real world. Creating things that work well in the laboratory is a good first step, but people need to verify that such consistency is also present in less-controlled environments. Vibration testing examines whether devices and other items tolerate shocks and keep working effectively and safely.

The Growing Importance of Continuous Observability in the Age of Cyber Resilience
March 20, 2025
As embedded systems become more connected and complex, ensuring their security and reliability is no longer optional – it’s a regulatory necessity. The European Union’s Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is a clear signal that manufacturers must take proactive measures to secure their products, not just during development but throughout their operational lifespan. One crucial aspect of this is real-time monitoring of devices in all phases of the product lifecycle – what we at Percepio call Continuous Observability.

Guidelines for Reliable RTOS Usage
March 13, 2025
There is a great deal of information about how to write reliable code, but very little about how to pick a reliable RTOS and how to use it reliably. An erroneous concept has flourished for decades that “since all RTOSs are equivalent”, the simplest one will do. Whereas this might be an acceptable idea when the alternative is bare metal, it is not acceptable for the complex embedded and IoT systems that are being developed today.

DevTalk with Rich and Vin: Reverse Engineering
April 10, 2025
Just about everybody in the engineering space has reverse-engineered a product at some point. It might have been for professional reasons, like seeing how a competitor is attacking a problem or simply seeing how they engineered a product. Or it could have been for personal reasons, because the product stopped working, or simply because they wanted to.
Note: If you search for “Tear Down” on Embedded Computing Design, you can see the products we’ve reverse-engineered.
Then there are those people, like the folks at emproof, who get paid to reverse-engineer products, particularly on the software side. Tim Blazytko, the company’s Chief Scientist, Head of Engineering, and Co-Founder, joined us on this episode of DevTalk with Rich and Vin to share some of his experiences with reverse engineering.
