Day 3 at MASTERs 2026 brings even more opportunities to explore cutting-edge technology, connect with experts, and see real-world engineering solutions in action. Earlier in the week, attendees enjoyed Innovation Night and the popular Beer Boat Races, where teams designed and raced custom remote-controlled boats built around WBZ451 Curiosity development boards.
Join hosts Lily, Ulisses, and Grace as they tour the Ask the Experts area and meet engineers showcasing the latest developments in AI, machine learning, programmable logic, industrial networking, and sensor technology.
Featured in this episode:
AI and Machine Learning on PolarFire® SoC
-Real-time object detection and recognition
-Video analytics and spatial awareness demonstrations
-AI inference workflows using FPGA and GPU technologies
High-Speed Vision and Video Processing
-4K camera data capture and processing
-FPGA-based video conversion and transport
-High-bandwidth imaging applications for advanced systems
Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN)
-Industrial Ethernet demonstrations
-Reliable communications for automation and control systems
-Prioritized network traffic for critical applications
Smart Sensor Solutions
-Agricultural monitoring using pH, humidity, and temperature sensing
-Contactless inductive sensing technologies
-Practical examples of embedded sensing in real-world environments
Throughout the event, attendees have the opportunity to speak directly with Microchip experts, discuss design challenges, and discover new solutions that can accelerate product development. The Ask the Experts area remains one of the most valuable parts of the MASTERs experience, giving engineers direct access to the people behind the technology.
The episode also previews upcoming activities, including the FIRST® Robotics showcase and Casino Night, two long-standing MASTERs favorites that bring the engineering community together for learning, networking, and fun.
