Edge computing has emerged as the solution to the continuously increasing numbers of Internet-connected devices and to the ever increasing amounts of data transmitted by them. Through the use of advanced algorithms and hardware components it allows sensor data processing at the source and reduces the volumes of data transmitted within the network. This paper focuses on the idea of edge computing, looks at some of the most important achievements in the field, and presents a use case system that shows how edge intelligence is becoming more common. The developed use case system is an environmental wireless sensor that is able to run for long periods of time on a single coin-cell battery while measuring parameters like equivalent CO2 (carbon dioxide) and VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds). This was made possible through the device's design, components, and advanced firmware, that uses high-level signal processing and fusion algorithms.

Spectral analysis of light is at the heart of countless scientific discoveries, techniques, and instruments. Miniaturized spectrometers have recently seen great advances, but combining low complexity with high performance remains challenging. We have recently introduced a novel integrated photonic spectrometer based on imaging of wavelength-dependent light propagation patterns in multi-mode interference (MMI) waveguides, followed by machine learning analysis with suitable techniques. A spectral resolution of 0.05 nm and resolving power of 16,000 were demonstrated in the near-infrared range, along with broadband operation in the visible spectrum, and the integration of four spectrometers in an array on a single chip. Stable operation of the device over extended periods of time is critical for many applications. Here, we introduce a robust approach for achieving long-term fiber-to-chip coupling by permanent attachment of a single-mode fiber to the input waveguide in a custom-made device holder. A mechanically stable and permanent coupling method, employing a UV-curable adhesive with minimal shrinkage, ensures precise and lasting alignment. This technique significantly enhances spectrometer stability and performance under environmental and mechanical perturbations. Over a week-long evaluation, the permanently coupled spectrometer demonstrated exceptional spectral accuracy and stability, with only a modest similar to 10% power reduction, in stark contrast to the rapid misalignment observed in free-space coupled systems. Accurate spectral reconstruction using a convolutional neural network was maintained throughout the testing period. Future work will focus on extending operational testing durations, advanced packaging solutions, and adaptations for remote and real-time applications, cementing the practicality of MMI waveguide-based spectrometry in diverse real-world environments.

Description and implementation case study of low etendue, ultra-bright, and non-coherent laser-based light source (1150 lm, 8000 cd) built on a 5W blue LD and YAG based single crystal phosphor for high-efficiency technical applications. The recent development of a new laser-based light source offers enhanced performance and efficiency across various domains, notably in light microscopy, medical procedures, advanced industrial applications, and far-field illumination. This innovative source, with a directional and narrow angle beam, is characterized by its high luminous flux, an luminous intensity over 6000 cd and ability to localize its optical power outperforming existing LED technology by an order of magnitude. Constructed around a 5 W blue laser diode, laser based light source boasts a compact design and is highly amenable to seamless system integration. Designed explicitly for scientific, biotech, and machine vision applications, it showcases a remarkably low etendue, with 50% of its power concentrated within G < 0.4 ***. The proposed solution offers a significant increase in system efficiency and has the potential to substantially influence the layout of optical systems.
