Hey everyone, this is Benjamin from the Zephyr Project, back for a new Zephyr release.
2
Zephyr 4 .5 is being released today, or at least as you're watching this.
3
It should be out, and there's lots of new features and things that I want to demo, as I always do.
4
It's been six months since the last release.
5
That's our new release cadence, in case you didn't get the memo.
6
Next one is planned for April of next year, 2027.
7
This is going to be our next long -term support release, But of course, today we are here to talk about all things 4 .5.
8
And there's a lot that's happened, probably more than usual.
9
There's something that the project has been sort of like embracing, I would say, which is AI and AI agents.
10
This has been just like many other open source projects.
11
This has had a significant impact on the development.
12
So we've seen lots of new contributors.
13
In fact, we have a record trying to look at my notes.
14
You had nearly 1 ,300 contributors to the release.
15
Lots and lots of bug fixes, like people using AI agents to help them find bugs.
16
And of course, new features as well.
17
And also something interesting, performance improvements.
18
We've seen many areas and many maintainers, and we will be talking about that throughout the demo.
19
Something else that's worth highlighting, and let me pull the release notes.
20
As always, this is going to be where you want to go
21
if you want to catch up on what's new we also have the migration guide
22
that accompanies those release notes in case
23
you come from a previous version of Zephyr you always want to know what API is changed and whatnot
24
but yeah the release notes I will be walking through them with my own take on them plus some demos
25
that I've put together like I mentioned but this time I think the fact
26
that we are having two new processor architectures supported should be probably
27
it is one of like the top highlights it's not often
28
that we we get one Zephyr again has been around for many years the the typical processor architectures
29
that are supported are the super well -known ARM Cortex like
30
Cortex -M or Intel architectures
31
Intel x86 32 -bit 64 -bits RISC -V etc etc those kind of like general processor architectures,
32
but in some verticals, in some industries, there's dedicated silicon, right?
33
And like dedicated architectures.
34
One is Infineon Tricore.
35
If you've been driving a car in the past, sorry, 10, 15 years, it's very,
36
very, very likely that your engine or your brakes or both are running on the Tricore architecture from Infineon.
37
So it's, as the name indicates, It's a multi -core architecture, which is all about functional safety and automotive scenarios.
38
So this is now supported in Zephyr, as in the Zephyr kernel can run on those platforms.
39
And some of the peripherals of the platform are supported as well.
40
This is landing in 4 .5 as initial support.
41
There's still lots of work lined up to make it even better over the next few months.
42
But you can already try it if you have access and
43
or as always with Zephyr there's good support in emulators in the form of Kimu so you can run your first
44
Halo Worlds and whatnot on Kimu.
45
The Qualcomm hexagon architecture is also supported now so it's a DSP slash NPU,
46
a neural processor processing unit which typically you will find alongside the Snapdragon SoCs.
47
And so that's, yeah, for all things, signal processing and hardware acceleration for AI inference and whatnot.
48
This comes with its own toolchain and compilers, etc. And also supported in Zephyr.
49
This brings us to, I don't know, like 13 plus, I think, different processor architectures supported in Zephyr.
50
So pretty unique, pretty interesting.
51
With that, let's move on to some of the features the also top of the list
52
because this has been keeping many people busy
53
and this is also something that's landing in 4 .5
54
but there's so much lined up
55
that maybe in 4 .6 there will be another demo
56
because there's a lot of activity around mpipe or the multimedia pipeline
57
if you come from a Linux background or
58
if you're a Linux user
59
you may have been interacting with a gstreamer the idea is for all things multimedia as the name indicates
60
you often have many streams video audio
61
that you need to process right
62
you need to maybe multiplex them like you need to combine your audio with your video okay fair enough
63
that's an easy one
64
but you want to apply some filtering some processing some AI
65
inference engines to do people detection to do object detection people counting printing.
66
whatever and you want those pipelines to be efficient to run sometimes in parallel
67
to not eat up lots of memory especially since i mean it's zephyr
68
so it's constrained environments so that's what mpipe is all about
69
and for this one
70
i have a nice demo lined up showing a pretty complex
71
pipeline as you can see here on the on the on the diagram
72
we would want to to analyze different streams in parallel, right?
73
And so you want to analyze a video coming from, in my case, a video camera,
74
and you want to run object detection in the form of the YOLO well -known algorithm, and you will detect objects,
75
people, and based on that you want to overlay some information on top of the video
76
so that you have like those bounding boxes being drawn and then more, right?
77
If you detect people, you want to maybe do even more filtering when a person enters the frame, you want to capture the event,
78
send it to the network and or save it to the disk.
79
So let me show you actually the code briefly before I show the demo, just to show like just a tiny hint as to how
80
you would typically get the code in your code editor and how the mPype APIs look like.
81
Those boxes or like those building blocks that you've seen before
82
that are all chained to one another input on the left
83
and output on the right and you feed all your pipeline this way.
84
This is exactly how the code will look like
85
when you start assembling your pipeline and have like the T operator to split the pipeline in two,
86
et cetera, et cetera you end up basically just doing just that.
87
And you can basically assemble your different building blocks.
88
And when you have them, you build the wires and you wire everything together.
89
So that's just like a tiny bit of the code, but I think you get the idea. In fact, let's look at the demo
90
and let's use it as an opportunity also to mention something that's new in the release and
91
that I will be using the demo
92
I will be running on native simulator like I often do for those demos
93
so the Zephyr running on my Linux PC how do I do video on something
94
that I mean
95
if I'm in a simulator
96
I don't have necessarily a physical webcam attached to a physical board right yet on my PC
97
I do have a webcam I do have video files
98
that I could use as an input
99
so one thing worth highlighting in the context of native sim is
100
that as of this new release many many many more peripherals are supported
101
and you can use them in their emulated form or simulated form
102
and hook them up to your native simulator target
103
so whether it's audio video or anything else that
104
that you see here on the list you can easily add them to your device tree basically and
105
so in my case the video is going to be my
106
webcam is going to be piped into my native sim process
107
so that i can easily visualize it i'm going to use the webcam
108
but you can also pipe a file like a video file
109
which is actually really nice
110
and interesting in the context of continuous integration you want to test
111
that your application behaves like it should when it gets video
112
or audio feed and so you can have repeatable samples
113
and repeatable files that you always feed into your CI and that will or should always give you the same output.
114
So back to the demo, how does it look like?
115
Well, I have again, this is going to run on native sim
116
and so it's going to pick up my video camera and that's what the shell script here does,
117
like the few command lines I need to wire and feed my video cam into the Linux native SIM process.
118
And now this is my demo running.
119
And so this is like that window, that Zephyr display window, that's the same you would get on a physical device, right?
120
If you have an LCD display and the webcam would be whatever camera you have on your actual device.
121
And this is Zephyr.
122
So I have my Zephyr shell here and the application is starting to do apparently people detection or caps or whatever.
123
And I can interact with the shell to do like to interact with the system.
124
My pipeline has several layers, right?
125
And one of them is, well, detecting people through the neural network.
126
Another one is overlaying based on the output on the neural network, overlaying the bounding boxes like that yellow rectangle that you see right here.
127
But there's also more features like maybe applying some special effects.
128
I can tune the image so that it's a plane.
129
Whatever, different effects. And then...
130
There's also the ability to be like, okay, if there is someone in the picture, I want to actually blur them, right?
131
And so that's something that I want to do.
132
It's kind of like a layer that's on or off.
133
And that's exactly what M -Pipe allows you to do.
134
Enabling the privacy mode, I would start basically blurring people being detected in the frame.
135
And this is all happening in real time as you saw or remember maybe in that diagram,
136
we feed the video feed into the pipeline.
137
And first thing we do is we split in two queues.
138
One is the one that's going to be going through the neural network.
139
And this one is a so -called leaky queue, which means that knowing that the neural network will likely take some time to process the images,
140
it's going to do just that.
141
And whenever it's done, it picks up the latest image
142
but it's fine if it's if it loses images you wouldn't want to basically try
143
and process those 30 images per second
144
because i mean the device won't be able to catch up
145
but then there's the other branch or the other leg of the pipeline
146
which is displaying the video in real time and
147
so this one is a queue that's not leaky at all and that's meant to really display everything.
148
And so yeah that's my privacy mode right here and if I start hiding people, let's see if hiding people, putting someone back in the frame,
149
you can see that it's capturing and logging the fact that someone entered the room.
150
That's also something that's part of the pipeline.
151
And so if I quit the application I essentially have on my virtual SD card on my native simulator.
152
I should have saved some files and basically whenever someone enters the picture it's being saved.
153
Let me see I should have right here the yep this is what it captured
154
and so that would end up on the SD card
155
and I could stream to the network etc etc. So I think this is this is pretty impressive.
156
This disclaimer
157
that what you've seen it's using some of the pull requests like I mentioned this is still in development
158
so the the video plugin the display plugin are things for
159
which I mean you might not find the stuff readily available in 4 .5
160
but those are plugins
161
that will be probably merged really soon what you have in
162
4 .5 is everything else like all the plumbing for building your multimedia pipelines
163
so I think this one was pretty interesting right let's go back to the release note
164
and see what we have i mentioned networking let's maybe spend
165
some time on networking the uh the networking subsystem is really rich
166
and has been uh really rich pretty much since since day one
167
but there was a recent presentation at the zafir developer summit
168
where one of the main uh one of the maintainers of the zafir networking subsystem gave an update on everything
169
that's happened over the past few um releases and there's a lot because like I mentioned, thanks to AI, LLMs, etc.,
170
it's easier to implement protocols and make sure that we test them and have the proper test suits in place.
171
So there's many, many new protocols that were added to the release, things like Quick and HTTP 3 support.
172
If you're browsing pretty much any modern website on the internet, browsing the Zafir documentation and whatnot, this is being served over HTTP 3.
173
So you get support for that in Zafir now.
174
It's making more efficient use of the bandwidth of the of your memory etc
175
so that's that's an interesting one ssh you can now ssh into a zafford device
176
or the other way around your zafford device can connect to an ssh server we're going to see
177
that in the demo in in a moment and so on
178
and so forth
179
but before i dive into more of those features one thing
180
that's also highlighted here at the top of the list is something really impressive if you think about it.
181
Just by reviewing the code and using agents to help us review the code,
182
we've been able to identify many bottlenecks in the TCP and UDP implementation as well, to the point where in many scenarios,
183
you will have the low throughput that will be improved by 10 -20 % even on TCP,
184
which is kind of a big deal like it can really make the difference.
185
Also latency -wise, this actually comes with a new benchmark that's available also now for everyone to run,
186
which allows to easily test on Kymu your networking performance.
187
One thing that I did not mention, but it's kind of like, it feels like it's going to be AI no matter what.
188
Yes, we used AI agents to improve the networking stack and more.
189
And in fact, you can even, as of Zephyr 4 .5, have your Zephyr board, your Zephyr application,
190
behave as a Zephyr MCP server.
191
So what is MCP?
192
If you're not familiar, it's the Model Context Protocol.
193
It's a standard for anything, usually an application or some kind of server,
194
to expose and make available so -called tools and services, so that an AI agent,
195
if it feels like those tools might be useful to whatever task it has to do,
196
will call the tools and will use them to do its job.
197
And so what you get in Zephyr 4 .5 is a framework to declare in your system new services,
198
new tools, and probably hook them to some Zephyr subsystems.
199
What I did is basically I've been working on bringing up a new board,
200
which is effectively a flight controller for drones.
201
And so it's packed with sensors.
202
And some of those sensors had the drivers in Zephyr, some not.
203
So I built new drivers for them and I've enabled
204
and built and deployed onto the board an MCP server that's going to be looking at
205
and let's maybe look at the code actually I think
206
it's this guy this yeah this is a board where the MCP server what I want
207
it to do is expose all the all the various sensors
208
that are on the board and basically declare them as tools
209
so that if the AI agent wants to interact with the sensors,
210
it will be able to understand what quantities the sensors manipulate,
211
etc. Well, but what the MCP server does is enumerate all the sensors in the system.
212
And for that, there's actually a new notion in Zephyr 4 .5, which is classes of drivers,
213
like when all the sensor bindings in Zephyr now declare that they are of type sensor,
214
which means that you have macros that allow you to directly know, hey, in my device tree, what are all the sensors that I have?
215
And based on that, well, the MCP server is going to expose that information for the AI agent to consume.
216
and so the demo is
217
that I will be plugging the board to my to my pc over USB one thing
218
that I've done also is that over USB I can have a network interface
219
so in fact the board is going to be visible from my pc over internet
220
I've also enabled just for the sake of showing you that it basically just works.
221
I mentioned the SSH server before.
222
The board that I just connected to the PC
223
exposes its host name over MDNS and so on and so I can easily basically just log into it.
224
But the point is that I'm not sure exactly what sensors I have connected to the board, what they mean, what they do.
225
So this is where I want to use the AI agent for that.
226
So let's try basically to use whatever agent I have, I have Andy to just start asking questions.
227
Let me see.
228
Is this board ready to fly?
229
I mean the control N1 that I've just connected to the PC.
230
Let's see what it has to offer.
231
I might need to speed things up or maybe not.
232
Let's see.
233
It should be able to figure out on its own.
234
No polarizing against the board.
235
I'll read the sensors.
236
And this is where, yeah it starts using the mcp server behind the scenes
237
and it will be telling me i don't know
238
it will help me understand what the board has to offer
239
are these sensors readings accurate are they consistent with what you
240
would expect from a from a magnetometer an accelerometer etc let's see that's an interesting report
241
so no cheating here i actually did this in real time apparently the
242
so there's two imus on the board they seem to agree with one another they seem to sort of confirm
243
that the board is sitting still with like a 9 .80 newton blah blah blah of acceleration etc etc
244
but then apparently the compass is off it's reading 1 .22 goes
245
and it shouldn't i this is actually a new driver
246
so maybe i did something wrong with that driver and i'm guessing
247
that this would certainly mess up my flight control algorithm if this is off
248
So I could, it being an agent, right, and it being able also to access the code of my driver, probably my next question will be,
249
is there a bug in the driver that justifies or explains this?
250
Similarly, the sensor that provides the power supply is supposed to read 5 volts.
251
It doesn't.
252
So there's something wrong here, apparently.
253
And, like, that's...
254
An interesting one, right?
255
Because I have sort of like a generic MCP server deployed on the board.
256
Something that's just here to expose the sensors and make the sensors available as tools.
257
But then the knowledge of what is required for flying a drone, what is good or a bad reading for a compass,
258
etc. This is certainly not something that I would bake in Zephyr.
259
This is something and knowledge that comes from the agent.
260
And yeah, I could sort of like continue on
261
that maybe I will prompt with something else and we will see if that comes up with something post.
262
But can we create a small web -based dashboard, I guess in JavaScript, that would show me the readings of the sensors in real time?
263
And yeah, this one, I will speed things up.
264
I will show you when it's done.
265
I likely will just include the rendering of the app.
266
I've been trying this a couple of times.
267
It usually comes up with a really fancy web -based UI
268
that uses the yeah that pulls the sensors in real time
269
and that helps you understand what your device does
270
and then the sky is the limit I guess like when
271
when you start exposing MCP tools services from your Zephyr board it can be anything
272
that taps into the physical world
273
that taps into the sensors the APIs you can control motors you can control power supplies probably bad things too
274
but it's it's really up to you and
275
so yeah let's see this one I'll keep it on screen for maybe a few more seconds
276
and then you'll see as a small screenshot the final rendering
277
but it usually takes only only a couple minutes and I will just kill it.
278
Oh
279
and another one real quick on the networking front this I think
280
this was not showing before I was showing a previous version of the release notes RTP don't miss this one
281
if you do well multimedia as well just like we saw with MediaPipe streaming audio feeds and video feeds over UDP,
282
sending, receiving, we have now support for that in Zephyr.
283
So the really quick demo that I built for this one, it should be fun.
284
This is actually an opportunity to briefly walk you through this list of new driver classes.
285
It's always like, there's always a handful, every Zephyr release.
286
I won't be demoing all of them.
287
I mean, some of them are exactly what it says on the bullet point you have a new API for controlling browsers.
288
So it's kind of like on and off.
289
Maybe it wouldn't make for a great demo anyway, but clock monitor, Dali, Lin, back to, I guess, the automotive topic.
290
Lin is kind of can, I think.
291
It's an automotive serial bus, and so on and so forth.
292
The one that I think is interesting, I mean, they all are, but the one that's going to be demoed together with RTP
293
in just a few seconds is Pulse .io where you have this new API for building
294
and implementing those protocols that are really sensitive to timing.
295
You want to control those fancy RGB LEDs with like really
296
well -timed pulses usually backed with some dedicated IP for that in your silicon.
297
But yeah that's the one I want to use and demo.
298
Let me pull the device on screen maybe first.
299
This is this guy right here.
300
This is an LED matrix.
301
So connected to, you barely see it right here, but I have an ESP32,
302
like a wireless, a Wi -Fi device connected to nothing but Wi -Fi.
303
Like it's not connected to my laptop in any way.
304
It's actually connected to a power bank.
305
And so this is connected to my local network at home.
306
And this is running PulseIO to control the RGB LEDs on that LED matrix.
307
And this is running code where an RTP client is listening
308
to multicast RTP packets coming from somewhere else on the local network and feeding video and audio.
309
Sorry, in this case, audio streams.
310
So what I'm going to do is from my main computer, I will be, let me make sure that you all see the webcam right here.
311
I'm going to be running an app that's going to be streaming
312
or like playing video on my laptop and also pushing the video,
313
sorry, again, pushing the audio feed over UDP.
314
broadcasting or multicasting the audio feed to to the network and so let's see what this does
315
we have main engine start four three two one
316
You get the idea.
317
This works really well.
318
I could have, should have shown multiple devices.
319
I think I also have a mode where it would stream the audio from my, like if I were to just talk into my mic.
320
Yeah, I think that's the one actually.
321
Yeah, there you go.
322
And you can see this might not show up super clearly on the recording,
323
but RTP also gives you the ability to actually synchronize all the feeds.
324
So you can do something that's actually looking really cool.
325
It looks like it's actually synchronized.
326
Maybe I should keep it for the rest of the demo.
327
Yeah, I think this should give you a sense of the breadth of all the things that went into,
328
well, networking in this case, but drivers as well.
329
And there's also a lot about all things beyond all things gateways all things routers um
330
so check it out basically uh moving on like i said
331
i mean no particular order uh let's pick the next one security
332
and sbomb improvements this one i'm going to show a quick demo
333
but first i want to talk briefly through what what happened around the spdx tooling
334
and around maybe also some of the the regulations that
335
that emerged over the past few months maybe we covered it in in 4 .4 i don't quite remember
336
but the cyber resilience act is something that every product makers out there are going to have to be aware of.
337
I mean, you have to be aware of if you're putting a product with so -called digital elements on the EU market.
338
There's lots of things you need to do to carefully manage the provenance of your software, to disclose vulnerabilities when you're being made aware of them.
339
And so how do you do that?
340
Well, you need some tooling.
341
Zephyr has had some tooling around
342
that for many years now in this release
343
we've improved the tooling to to let you do SPDX 3 as bombs
344
so SPDX is an ISO standard
345
which the SPDX 3 version is actually standardized now as well
346
that allows you to capture in a well -described manner the
347
what your software is about what are your dependencies what are the the licenses what are the the CVs
348
and the vulnerabilities that apply to them like using some well -known identifiers for your different software packages.
349
You can match them against public vulnerability databases and so on.
350
So just showing you real quick what that means
351
when you want to generate this S -BOM in your system or for your Zephyr build.
352
You would basically build your application.
353
As usual, the only thing is that you need to enable
354
or to tell the build system that it needs to capture some additional metadata for your build.
355
And once all the metadata is there, you can then ask the west spdx command to generate the output for use.
356
There we go.
357
So we're going to scan all the files for licenses, for dependencies, for build configuration and build options,
358
etc. To the point where you get in your build output folder,
359
you'll get the JSON files that correspond to your SBOM and you can then use some tools,
360
commercial tools, open source tools to load them, visualize them, and analyze them.
361
There is one such tool on the SPDX website.
362
If you go to the visualizer that's being made available there, you can actually visualize your S -BOM.
363
So I'm going to do just that here.
364
I'm going to browse my local file system.
365
You might not see me pick up the files, but trust me those are the same files that I just built.
366
Loading them in the tool and then being able to visualize, analyze the data, visualize the dependencies.
367
We're like what are the sources that I am pulling into my build?
368
I am pulling some libraries from Zephyr, I am pulling some things from the HAL, from the vendor apparently.
369
And I mean you can visualize all those dependencies, licenses associated to them and navigate the whole thing apparently there is this build right here
370
that takes as an input quite a few c files
371
and does what a build step does which is compiling and
372
so you have to get a sense of all the all the options
373
that are there it might i mean some security vulnerabilities might be hidden in there
374
if you didn't tweak your build properly so
375
It's nice to be able to have that and have sort of like this manifest of how you build your application.
376
You get the ability, like all those libraries, modules, packages that you pull into your build.
377
Oftentimes, they will have well -known identifiers, like unique identifiers that.. are the ones that when CVEs and vulnerabilities get reported,
378
those are the ones that would match public databases, right?
379
So the tool, given your SBOM and its contents, can tell you that you might actually be impacted by some vulnerabilities.
380
And so you might want to have a look.
381
I think on this one, I was intentionally using an old version of Zephyr to get some hits there.
382
But yeah, that's basically what you can do with this new SPDX 3 tooling.
383
I highly encourage you to use it.
384
Report bugs as you find limitations in it, just like any other area of Zephyr.
385
Something that's also an addition to Zephyr in this cycle, or at least a rework, is the hardening tool.
386
The fact that when you build an application, there's going to be thousands, I guess kconfig options
387
that you may be able to tweak usually
388
we try to come up in in zephyr with sensible default values for making sure
389
that you get kind of the best compromise in terms of performance security footprint
390
but sometimes as part of prototyping and
391
and bringing up your your application you might end up enabling options
392
that are absolutely not suitable for production like you're exposing some some credentials
393
or you're exposing some information to a potential attacker
394
so the the tool that we've had for uh for a
395
while has been improved so that whenever you have a config option
396
that is not set to what it should it will sort of warn you
397
so um for a given build you can run this command
398
which um i can show you how it looks like on the very same built as before
399
and I can see okay this application I built is this looking like it's providing me
400
and using good values
401
or not apparently not I mean
402
this is kind of this is a debug build out of the box
403
it looks like I should probably disable the the boot banner
404
which usually shows a this is Zephyr 4 .5 welcome to your shell apparently I should remove it
405
because this would give attacker information regarding whatever version I use.
406
Similarly, logging should probably be removed and I mean so on and so forth.
407
You get the idea.
408
If I'm using experimental features it might also not be a good idea
409
or at least I need to be aware that I might be using something that potentially is not rock solid.
410
And also related to security, no demo for that
411
but still worth knowing you want your MCU to be focusing on your actual application
412
and not necessarily running stuff that other peripherals on your system could take care of.
413
Typically crypto, when you do TLS and whatnot, there's usually support in silicon to have hardware acceleration.
414
So in this release cycle, we've introduced hardware acceleration for PSA crypto on many silicon vendors.
415
You have the list here.
416
With that, I think we can probably move on to the next topic or next demo.
417
What else do we have?
418
Simulation, testing.
419
I mentioned those new
420
Native SIM peripherals for audio, video, but there's more, like
421
Wi -Fi, LEDs.
422
You can more easily tap into your existing file system.
423
So check that out kind of related
424
or like the counterpart of what we've seen on native sim
425
but for among others for for keymu targets like
426
if you want your keymu simulator to have access to emulated peripherals over i2c spi
427
or like simulate input drivers block drivers thanks to virtual io
428
this is now possible we still probably need to add some some fancy wrappers
429
and scripts to to to simplify the usage of that
430
but this is whether you're using native sim
431
or keymu basically you now have a lot more freedom
432
and options to route or like to to connect emulated
433
and sometimes real devices to your zafari
434
so that's uh yeah like it's really nice to see how easy
435
and i mean you've seen
436
that in action right like the demo the mpipe demo
437
i was using lots of emulated peripherals i could have done the demo on the board
438
but I was just doing the exact same code on the simulator.
439
Twister also has lots of new improvements to check them out.
440
The networking I think back to networking but this is interesting to see
441
and I would like or hope to see that more in other subsystems.
442
There's usually test suites available for all those protocol stacks out there and for networking
443
There's a test suite called TTCN, which is now...
444
it's available like in the tree there's the ability to run those conformance suites to make sure
445
that basically the zephyr tcp ip and networking stack is follows all the rfcs
446
and all the standards out there and i mean you don't have to trust me
447
or believe me when i say
448
that zephyr does x you can actually run the tests for for yourself
449
which is quite nice if you also a few additions
450
or changes as always we do lots of we eat our own dog food
451
and we have always the we need better tools to do our day -to -day job
452
and they usually end up in the tree and
453
so things like the new the ability to tweak
454
and to enable asserts per per module
455
or per file as opposed to having just this big button
456
and this big red switch for turning them globally on
457
or off this is actually really nice
458
because you can have a better control on on
459
when you you enable them and you can also not over your device
460
and and your your memory by enabling too many assets at the same time
461
so really nice to see lots of new options as well for detecting memory
462
memory faults and memory errors etc
463
and tracing wise also this one totally worth a shout out
464
and you have a nice demo and a nice sample there
465
and in the blog post that goes together with this video you will see
466
that as well but tracing in Zephyr typically would require some dedicated tools
467
or scripts to process the traces depending on what trace format you're using etc
468
but usually the one format that's the sort of the easier to manipulate would be CTF, the common trace format.
469
But historically you would require a Python library to process them that would only work on Linux.
470
With some of the changes in this new version of Zephyr you have a new tool
471
that allows you to visualize the um there's basically a terminal viewer
472
that shows you the traces in real time
473
if you do semi hosting in particular you can uh you can visualize the traces really easily
474
or there's also new tools to do uh per photo export etc etc
475
so i think that's that's really nice um with
476
that let me double check that i've gone through the entire list i think i have
477
please make sure to join us on discord
478
if you're not already on the zaffyr discord
479
this is where you can learn more about what the community
480
is up to there is lots of news being discussed there all of the meetups
481
that are being organized in all the cities worldwide
482
you can also learn about them from our discord channel from our website of course
483
we have a zephyr podcast also which i highly encourage you all to subscribe to
484
and and and listen if you are not already
485
and uh yeah just wrapping things up on the release notes like nearly 200 new boards are supported
486
so it's like it's likely
487
that whatever is the new cool board on the block it's something
488
that you can already just run on zephyr check out like
489
i mentioned also the migration guide like that's an important one we try
490
and make it really complete maybe to the point where a human would be overwhelmed looking at it but
491
if you are starting to use AI agents etc
492
they will love being fed with with this information to help you migrate your existing Zephyr code base
493
so do not hesitate I mean you probably don't even have to say anything
494
they will figure it out by themselves with that like
495
and subscribe the video if you've enjoyed it make sure to to tell me
496
if I forgot anything useful make sure to tell us what is the feature
497
that particularly interests you in this new release
498
and we will be back in six months time for the new Zephyr LTS release.
499
Thank you!

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
