As supply-chain risks grow around InP and InGaAs-based materials, not every SWIR application necessarily requires an InGaAs sensor. Below 1,100 nm, silicon-based BSI CMOS can be a practical alternative in terms of cost and supply stability. This article looks at the technical boundary between InGaAs and silicon.

Starbucks pulled NomadGo’s computer-vision-based inventory management system just nine months after rollout. This case highlights the limits of marketing claims like 99% accuracy, the constraints of FOV and on-device AI, and the difficulty of simply adding vision technology onto existing store operations.

A recap of visiting Shanghai Vision China and Semicon China 2026. The shift toward edge devices by Chinese companies, the overwhelming scale of Semicon China, and the vertical integration of materials, components, and equipment made the speed—and the urgency—of Chinese manufacturing feel very real.

Vibe coding makes it seem as if anyone can build software now, but beneath that promise lie new constraints: token costs, platform moderation, market concentration, and relentless quality competition. This essay looks at the future of vibe coding from both optimistic and skeptical angles, and argues that what we really need is not a fantasy of easy money but the ability to adapt to the AI era.

An experiment in conversing with talkie, a language model trained only on texts written before 1930. From lunar travel and Korean independence to predictions about 2026, it is a fascinating record where the biases and insights of a century-old worldview collide.

The Semicon Korea 2026 venue showcased an expansion phase created by AI demand and expectations for recovery in the memory market. At the same time, the exhibition revealed a structural change that strongly reflected the characteristics of a job fair beyond just technology promotion.

This is a text that helps you understand registers, memory, ALU, flags, branching, stack, and assembler while directly implementing a 16-bit CPU in C code. It is especially recommended for those who want to connect computer architecture not through abstract explanations but through working code.

Dutch AI semiconductor startup Axelera AI has secured an investment of $250 million. This news goes beyond simple funding; it reaffirms the presence of European AI semiconductor startups and the growth potential of the edge semiconductor market for AI inference. I summarized why Axelera AI is gaining attention and what this investment means for the industrial AI and machine vision sectors.

With AI-composed concentration music overflowing in YouTube work playlists, a sense of 'familiar yet unappealing' fatigue has emerged. As this happens, channels that create song selections and videos manually become even rarer. Even in an era where anyone can create, there is a clear reason why certain content gets chosen.

Reading Adrian Li Mow Ching's Father's Day Q&A on Clicks Blog made me rethink the meaning of 'securing time.' Time is not something that is left over; it must be secured. These days, I have been prioritizing handling over planning and living reactively. Through the perspective that parenting and leadership are similar, I reflect on the attitude of 'bystanding' and intend to start implementing small routines again.

Unlike the macro trends in AI news, 'Moltbook,' derived from personal-based agent projects, is a community where AI agents interact through posts and comments. The continuation of conversations, trolling, and tip-sharing resembling human communities is intriguing, but it also evokes the imagination that the 'dead internet' could become a reality.

Yuval Harari, having accurately understood LLM as a 'language token-based probabilistic model,' poses a more important question: 'What is Thinking?' As language begins to be replaced and dominated by AI, laws, religions, books, and cultures could be restructured. He also warns of the potential for 'AI Immigrants' to flow in without borders, rapidly changing job and power structures.

What initially felt like a barrier to entry, Markdown has become the basic syntax for communicating with LLMs through notes, development, and blogs. We learn again from the history of Markdown the core of product development: precisely defining simple inconveniences and solving them in an even simpler way.

The LSSTCam is an observational camera with 3.2 gigapixels, 189 sensors, and processes tens of GB of data per second. This article briefly and clearly summarizes the key specifications and structure of the LSSTCam, explaining why it is called the 'world's largest camera.'

The TKH Group's subsidiaries Allied Vision, Chromasens, Mikrotron, NET, and SVS-Vistek will be unified under a single 'Allied Vision' brand. The product lineup will expand from GigE/MIPI to CXP and line scan, with the core focus on providing a unified platform experience based on an integrated SDK.

The EMVA GenIcam group presented GenFeA, which makes camera integration easier in embedded and heterogeneous architectures. Let's take a look at the details and prospects.

Verifying whether an OS boot image is valid by comparing images stored on SD cards.

A field issue occurred where serial communication between a PC and an Arduino became unstable at a distance of 3–4 meters. To resolve this without modifying the existing host application, a Raspberry Pi was introduced as a relay server using a Gigabit network and virtual COM ports. This post describes a practical, albeit inefficient, workaround for urgent situations.

A quick write-up of the Git commands I occasionally need in the terminal.

An overview of the Arducam Quad 12MP (IMX477) color camera and how to connect it.

Saying goodbye to Arc Browser reminded me that what we love and what survives aren’t always the same.

After a security incident, I found an answer: building a safe and convenient remote SSH setup with Tailscale.

Running an internal GitHub-like service on a private network using the open-source Gitea.

Let’s try repairing the broken display on the FNIRSI 1014D oscilloscope
