As big as they r, they notice cool stuff

 the MCU with the FFE in front I used the rice terraces as a mental model…tiers of intelligence…

   I want this foreshadowing as it will be a part of the S4. Always keep something to look forward to...and now I will track the Sensory roadmap as it will
   show the evolution of the audio part of QUIK's Eos.
   
   “All of the best intelligent system technology is cloud-based today, says Expect Labs’ Tuttle.” “In the future, that is not necessarily going to be the case. In three to five years, it’s certainly possible that a large percentage of the computation done in the cloud today could conceivably be done locally on your device on the fly. Essentially, you could have an intelligent system that could understand you, provide answers on a wide range of topics, and fit into your pocket, without any connectivity at all.”

   I have used the rice terraces as a mental model for the layered intelligence that QUIK has been working on….this image

   
   

   
   

   
   

   
   

   Unique multi-core sensor processing System-On-a-Chip (SoC) provides a tiered architecture with world class computational capability 
   

   
   
   
   It has served me well and I will keep it for the future QUIK roadmap as they have delivered the goods in this regard.
   
   important conclusions for me from Eos.
   
   1. The Audio portion is so much better, than I hoped for. That Sensory has such a good roadmap that includes more and more complex algos for such things as noise cancellation beam forming, fits with the QUIK roadmap very well. Their focus on no internet connection necessary will mean keep it on the device ( "deeply embedded") and it just fits so well for companies with road map that don't stop for a good bit of time.
   
   2. Thought it would take a bifurcation; a fork in the roadmap for IoT & Smartphones. Was worried that that would be too much for the resources of QUIK. They have done a nice job of spanning them both with Eos.
   
   Notice how the throughput of the device has moved up from 150 to 180….ie they beat their goal here.
