John argues that Tesla has had fully software-updatable cars since 2018, down to seat-control microcontrollers.
1. Mobile Tech Podcast with tnkgrl Myriam Joire covers Infineon October Tech 2025, EV software, CMF Headphone Pro, Oppo Find X9, Vivo X300, Realme 15 Pro GoT edition, and Apple M5 devices. 2. Myriam Joire hosts the episode, Mark Finn of Infineon joins for the demo segment, Brian Morrison and Angel present hardware demos, Ryan shows PSoC Edge, Chris demonstrates 60 GHz radar, and John Velasco of Tom’s Guide handles the EV discussion. 3. The episode asks what Infineon’s October Tech demos, edge-AI chips, and current EV software debates say about mobile tech in 2025. 4. Mark Finn says October Tech lets visitors “touch the demos” and talk directly to engineers at the Computer History Museum. 5. He highlights ECU consolidation in cars, fewer ECUs, less weight, lower cost, and a move from domain architecture to zonal architecture. 6. Brian Morrison shows a time-sensitive networking demo using Oryx as a zone controller, with congestion on the bus causing unsynced power windows. 7. Brian then demonstrates a credit-based shaper restoring synchronization and a reroute after network loss through a backup Ethernet path. 8. Angel presents a humanoid head built from Infineon parts, including three 60 GHz radars, time-of-flight sensors, digital microphones, PSoC Edge, PSoC Control, and a magnetic sensor. 9. The humanoid demo follows the closest moving person and shows how the same stack could support robotics beyond the museum display. 10. Ryan’s PSoC Edge demo runs facial recognition and AI voice control on a disconnected microcontroller using a simple camera and sub-milliwatt power. 11. He says the voice demo can understand commands such as “okay vector, next app” and “okay vector, previous app.” 12. Mark also describes radar-triggered doorbell and presence-sensing use cases that can run for years on battery power. 13. Chris explains that the 60 GHz radar can stay autonomous, switch a doorbell from black-and-white to color, and support configurable range and angle zones. 14. He adds an indoor presence system on a PSoC 6 with 256 kilobytes of memory for smart-home and smart-building applications. 15. John Velasco says EV efficiency has improved over the last six months, and he cites three-row SUVs reaching 3.5 miles per kilowatt-hour. 16. He argues that software quality now matters as much as range, criticizes slow OTA support in some brands, and praises Tesla and Rivian for regular updates. 17. The tone shifts from hands-on engineering tour to opinionated industry analysis, with live demos, repeated device testing, and direct back-and-forth with guests. 18. Myriam keeps the format conversational and technical, while the guests answer with practical examples rather than abstract theory. 19. Listeners interested in Infineon, automotive architecture, edge AI, and EV software. 20. Listeners wanting a tightly focused narrative episode without hardware or car-tech interest.
