  Empowering the Embedded Industry to Tackle the EU Cyber Resilience Act and Cyber regulations with an Innovative & Open Source Vulnerability Management Tool.   Nuremberg, March 11, 2025 – Savoir-faire Linux, a leading open-source software engineering and consulting firm, is proud to announce the official release of VulnScout.io, an open source cybersecurity solution designed […]

Optimizing YOLO Training for Real-Time Detection on a LiDAR system This is the second of a three-part series on real-time YOLO detection on a LiDAR system for Edge AI. Find Article 1 on generating synthetic depth and NIR datasets here. Currently, new low-resolution embedded LiDAR such as the VL53L9CX, are emerging as a highly suitable […]

Enable Real-time Detection with Synthetic LiDAR Data Generation This series of articles will cover the essential components required to build real-time detection on a system with a dToF 3D LiDAR module. This first article is focused on synthetic LiDAR data generation. Synthetic LiDAR data generation for real-time detection Real-time Detection on a LiDAR System: Training […]

Accelerating early Linux boot with Yocto multiconfig By Paul Le Guen de Kerneizon Introduction In embedded products, cutting seconds, or even hundreds of milliseconds, from power‑on to application readiness is often critical. In this article, I will present a practical workflow to measure, compare, and iteratively reduce the early boot window of a Linux embedded […]

In today’s world, where everything from coffee machines to industrial equipment is connected to the network, knowing and assessing the security of your software and its dependencies has never been more important. Most vulnerabilities originate from small bugs in software components, and more recently (and thankfully less frequently) from sophisticated supply chain attacks. But with […]

Deploying a Convolutional Neural Network on an Embedded System Introduction The rise of embedded platforms capable of AI processing has been a real game changer: it is now possible to deploy intelligent solutions directly on the device itself, without relying on the cloud. This is known as « edge AI ». In a recent project, […]

Author : Luc Beaufils, Embedded Systems Engineer   Debugging MCUs has always been the key to producing high-quality code, but reliance on vendor-specific IDEs and complex debug server configurations can hinder a smooth development workflow. While VSCode has revolutionized the way developers write and debug code, setting up a debug session for MCUs can sometimes […]

2024 was particularly rewarding for Savoir-faire Linux. We had the opportunity to take part in key events accross the Energy and Embedded sectors. We have built new partnerships and strenghtened our position in Open Source communities. We also had the pleasure to sponsor two events this year, the LF Energy Summit and Montréal Python. In […]

Savoir-faire Linux is excited to announce DHTNet, a powerful new C++17 library spun off from the Jami project that simplifies peer-to-peer connectivity. DHTNet enables developers to establish secure P2P connections between devices using only public keys, eliminating the need for centralized infrastructure or direct IP addressing. Features Connection Management: DHTNet simplifies the establishment and management […]
