🔖 Topics: Sensor Fusion

🏢 Organizations: Bosch, STMicroelectronics


Bosch calls its new semiconductor fab in Dresden a smart factory with highly automated, fully connected machines and integrated processes combined with AI and internet of things (IoT) technologies for facilitating data-driven manufacturing. With machines that think for themselves and glasses with built-in cameras, maintenance work in this fab can be performed from 9,000 kilometers (about 5,592 miles) away.

STMicroelectronics (STMicro) has added compute power to sensing in what it calls an intelligent sensor processing unit (ISPU). It combines a DSP suited to run AI algorithms and MEMS sensor on the same chip. The merger of sensors and AI puts electronic decision-making on the edge, while enabling smart sensors to sense, process and take actions, bridging the fusion of technology and the physical world.

🔖 Topics: Acquisition

🏢 Organizations: Bosch, TSI Semiconductor


Bosch is expanding its semiconductor business with silicon carbide chips. The technology company plans to acquire assets of the U.S. chipmaker TSI Semiconductors, based in Roseville, California. With a workforce of 250, the company is a foundry for application-specific integrated circuits, or ASICs. Currently, it mainly develops and produces large volumes of chips on 200-millimeter silicon wafers for applications in the mobility, telecommunications, energy, and life sciences industries. Over the next years, Bosch intends to invest more than 1.5 billion USD in the Roseville site and convert the TSI Semiconductors manufacturing facilities to state-of-the-art processes. Starting in 2026, the first chips will be produced on 200-millimeter wafers based on the innovative material silicon carbide (SiC).

🔖 Topics: Funding Event, Bionic Supply Chain

🏢 Organizations: Garvis, Superseed, Scalebridge Capital, Bosch


A year after the launch of its AI platform for demand and inventory planning, Belgian startup Garvis raised € 3.5 million to develop the platform. Investors include British investment funds Superseed and Scalebridge Capital, and the German group Bosch Ventures. Garvis’ technology enables companies to respond at lightning speed to upheavals and evolutions that influence customer purchase behavior. One unique feature: even non-specialists are able to use the platform within a day.

Businesses need a radical new planning method that uses risk profiles, insight and real-time data. The platform Garvis developed, maps relevant environmental factors and provides transparent, explainable insights and predictions of demand patterns for various industries such as automotive, semiconductor, retail, and food and beverage. It uses open-box AI to respond to global fluctuations in buying behavior. Unexpected changes in demand patterns are recognized early, allowing planners to immediately adjust their forecasts and keep schedules up to date. Garvis works with the University of Antwerp (Belgium) to continuously optimize the predictive algorithms.

Bosch’s new partnership aims to explore quantum digital twins

📅 Date:

🔖 Topics: Quantum Computing, Simulation

🏢 Organizations: Bosch, Multiverse Computing


Industrial giant Bosch has partnered with Multiverse Computing, a Spanish quantum software platform, to integrate quantum algorithms into digital twin simulation workflows. Bosch already has an extensive industrial simulation practice that provides insights across various business units. This new collaboration will explore ways quantum-inspired algorithms and computers could help scale these simulations more efficiently.

One of the most promising use cases for the new quantum algorithms is creating better machine learning models more quickly. Hernández Caballer said quantum computing shows tremendous promise in use cases with many combinations of parameters and materials. This early research could give Bosch a leg up in taking advantage of these new systems to improve machine learning and simulation.
