Come See It First at Embedded World 2026

If you’ve ever wished you could see exactly what’s happening inside your firmware – every subtle timing hiccup, every task that occasionally runs too long – you’re going to want to stop by at our Embedded World booths (find us here). Modern embedded systems are complex, and engineers need more than “pass/fail” feedback. As this New Electronics article puts it, what teams need is “Mars-level insight” into their systems.

That’s exactly what Percepio Detect™ delivers. Since we first introduced it at Embedded World 2025, we’ve been busy leveling up. This year, we are excited to give attendees a first look at Detect 2026.1, featuring full Zephyr RTOS support. Developers will soon be able to detect, analyze, and fix anomalies on Zephyr-based systems as easily as they do on other supported platforms.

As Max Maxfield recently summarized Percepio Detect after an in-depth chat with our founder and CTO Dr. Johan Kraft, in this Electronic Engineering Journal article:

“Detect is not simply “another trace tool.” Rather, it’s a systematic framework for automatically monitoring RTOS-based systems during testing (especially in continuous integration environments) and capturing focused diagnostic snapshots when something anomalous occurs. Instead of recording everything all the time, Detect watches for specific conditions such as faults, timing violations, unusual CPU load patterns, stalled threads, watchdog resets, or user-defined triggers—and then preserves just enough context to explain what happened.”

At Embedded World we’ll show Tracealyzer + Detect 2026.1 live on real hardware from Nordic Semiconductor and STMicroelectronics. You will see how Detect automatically captures anomalies and how Tracealyzer visualizes them in context – all on actual silicon. It’s observability you can see, touch, and interact with.

Percepio’s Continuous Observability portfolio was first introduced at embedded world 2024

We’ll be exhibiting with the Zephyr Project (Booth 4-170), celebrating their 10th anniversary, and with Logic Technology (Booth 4-238). Stop by to chat, see the demo, or just say hi – we’d love to meet you in person. And if you can’t make it, the current version of Detect is available as a free 10-day evaluation, so you can start exploring Mars-level insight right now.

Come see what your firmware has been hiding and discover how Continuous Observability® can give you full visibility like never before.
