Write Better IoT Firmware Using AI
AI is transforming the way we write code. As an embedded or IoT developer, your work can span everything from C on bare metal, C++ with an RTOS, Arduino sketches, and Python on a Pi. Every language, framework, and library in your stack is being reshaped by this AI revolution.
But while “vibe coding” with AI sounds fun, the reality can be messy: tangled codebases, cleaning up hallucinations, and hours spent reviewing machine-written code that was supposed to save time. So when does the fun actually start?
About the Webinar
In this webinar the Blues team showed how to use modern AI tools and workflows to write cleaner, faster, and more reliable firmware for connected devices. You’ll learn how to configure your environment for AI coding assistants, then seamlessly integrate them into your dev workflow.
Specifically, we’ll walk through:
- Structuring your project so AI understands your APIs, patterns, and architecture
- Using tools like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and ChatGPT
- How AI fits differently in greenfield vs. brownfield scenarios
- Getting started with MCP servers (and which ones we recommend)
- Best practices and gotchas for prompting, and avoiding common AI pitfalls
Whether you’re deploying on a tiny MCU or a powerful SBC, you’ll walk away with practical strategies to improve your development workflow with AI. New to AI tools? Experienced with Claude Code? Either way, you’ll pick up techniques you can apply immediately.
Watch the on-demand recording to learn these practical AI development strategies.
