Featured Sessions
Mary Ann Freeman, Senior Director of Engineering, AI and Data Science, MathWorks
Keynote: Embedded Intelligence: The Future of AI in Engineering Design
Artificial intelligence, especially generative AI, is changing engineering design. It handles routine tasks and helps engineers be more creative in three key ways:
- Accelerating the engineering design loop by providing faster, data-driven solutions.
- Mixing human ideas with AI insights, changing the role of designers.
- Improving engineering design tools, making it easier to turn creative concepts into accurate, ready-to-build solutions.
See how these advancements help engineers move beyond traditional limits and effectively bridge imagination with practical solutions.

Olivier de Weck, Apollo Program Professor of Astronautics and Engineering Systems, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Keynote: Digital Twin Development of PEARL Autonomous Surface System Thermal Management
Hear about the development of PEARL, a solar-powered autonomous marine robotics platform that operates on the surface of small bodies of water and in the ocean. PEARL is solar-powered and can dock with autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and provide real-time satellite connectivity through new satellite constellations such as Iridium® NEXT and Starlink. As such, PEARL allows engineers to connect the oceans with space in real time. One of the key challenges, however, is thermal management. The platform experiences thermal extremes during both winter and summer. As a result of past thermal shutdown events, the PEARL team has developed a digital twin for thermal management that allows them to predict temperatures at six different locations within approximately 1% accuracy.
Discover the trade-off between the root mean square error (RMSE) of digital twin models and the complexity of the model itself in terms of the number of parameters that need to be modeled. You will also explore the broader lessons learned for predictive modeling of autonomous systems, which are applicable to other domains.

Daniel Scurtu, Senior Director, NXP
Keynote: Accelerating Software-Defined Vehicles with Model-Based Design
Discover how the collaboration between MathWorks and NXP is transforming the development of system-level embedded applications. At the heart of this session is a vehicle electrification demo powered by tools from NXP and MATLAB® and Simulink® products, such as Model-Based Design Toolbox™, S32 Configuration Tools, Motor Control Blockset™, and Stateflow®.
Running across multiple NXP processors, the demo highlights a full spectrum of capabilities—from intelligent battery management and motor control to cloud-based fleet analytics and seamless over-the-air updates.
Walk through an end-to-end workflow that begins with modeling the concept and continues through validation, automatic code generation, hardware deployment, and real-time cloud monitoring. This integrated approach streamlines complex embedded system development and accelerates the transition to software-defined vehicles.
