AIRSHIP has been developed to tackle the problem of software complexity in embodied AI. Its mission is to provide an easy-to-deploy software stack that empowers a wide variety of intelligent robots, thereby facilitating scalability and accelerating the commercialization of the embodied AI sector. AIRSHIP takes inspiration from Android, which played a crucial role in the mobile computing revolution by offering an open-source, flexible platform. Android enabled a wide range of device manufacturers to create smartphones and tablets at different price points, sparking rapid innovation and competition. This led to the widespread availability of affordable and powerful mobile devices. Android's robust ecosystem, supported by a vast library of apps through the Google Play Store, allowed developers to reach a global audience, significantly advancing mobile technology adoption. Similar to Android, AIRSHIP offers both software and hardware specifications, enabling robotic builders to develop complete embodied AI systems for a range of scenarios, including home, retail, and warehouse environments.

Rust is a relative new language - released in 2015, it has taken the software programming word surprisingly swiftly. It is surprising that - not even 10 years later - we have ongoing projects and initiatives in the Functional Safety/SDV space. Rust is even seen as a front runner of open source safety initiatives. How did that happen? This talk provides an overview of currently ongoing initiatives, an assessment of challenges and an outlook into the future.

The Global Acceptance Network (GAN) is a new layer of digital public infrastructure for the Internet — comparable in some ways to the Internet’s current Domain Name System (DNS). The GAN will enable people, organizations, and “things” (e.g., devices, software, AI bots) to form and maintain sustainable digital trust relationships using open standard digital wallets, digital credentials, and trust registries. This new utility is designed to address many of the current ills of the Internet, including spam, phishing, fraud, malware, ransomware, and other persistent security, privacy, and trust issues that have plagued the Internet because its original design did not include this trust layer.

D-Bus is an IPC mechanism that is very ubiquitous on Linux systems everywhere (desktop, cloud and embedded). It is the mechanism you'd use to communicate with many of the core Linux userspace subsystems, such as systemd, NetworkManager etc. Traditionally, most of these services have been written in C, a language known for its lack of safety and expressiveness. In the past years, Zeeshan has developed a library, called zbus for enabling implementation of D-Bus services and clients in a programming language designed for safety: Rust. zbus has become the go-to library for writing D-Bus code in Rust. While that is major step forward, the communication typically still happens through a broker and the two major broker implementation are both are written in C and have been stagnating for years. This is why Zeeshan has recently started working on writing a D-Bus broker based on zbus, called busd, which not only aims provide a drop-in replacement for existing brokers, but also modernize the D-Bus space by providing new features needed by apps and services, such as systemd. In this talk, Zeeshan will walk us through a summary of his journey so far, the current state of busd and his plans and dreams for the future of D-Bus.

In the generative AI era, general users need to apply different base models, finetuned checkpoints, and LoRAs. Also the data privacy and real-time requirement will favor on-device, local deployment of large-scale generative AI models. It is desirable to develop a "plug-and-play" framework such that users can download any generative AI model, click and run on their own device. This poses significant challenge to the current AI deployment frameworks, which are typically time-consuming and requires human expertise of hardware and code generation. We present our effort of OminiX, which is a first step towards unified library and acceleartion of generative AI models across various hardware platforms. Integrating our unique front-end library and back-end instantaneous acceleration techniques, which will be open-source soon, we show capability of plug-and-play deployment and state-of-the-art acceleration of various generative AI models, starting from image generation, large language models, multi-model language models, speech generation and voice cloning, real-time chatting engine, real-time translation, video generation, real-time avatar, to name a few. This can be achieved without server, just on everyone's own platform.
