Embedded software development is changing quickly. For us at Percepio, that means thinking carefully not only about the technology we build today, but about the problems engineering teams will need us to solve tomorrow. That is why I’m very pleased to welcome Andreas Klintemyr as Product Lead.
He joins us with a background spanning connected products, robotics and technology development, including several years developing and maintaining IoT-connected products at Electrolux Group.

Something is shifting in medical technology. For years, medical devices were built to be as predictable and limited as possible, since that predictability was the point, and it was what got them through regulatory approval.
But thanks to more power-efficient processing and sophisticated edge algorithms, medical devices are becoming genuinely software-defined: wearables that continuously analyse ECG data, insulin-delivery systems that adjust therapy in real time, implantables that coordinate sensing, processing and communication under strict power and safety constraints

Our Industry Is Starting to Talk About Embedded Observability
For many years, runtime tracing and “observability” were mostly discussed as specialized debugging techniques. Valuable, yes, but usually brought in when a problem was already visible: a missed deadline, a watchdog reset, a customer complaint, a system that behaved differently in the field than in the lab. And in a quite separate conceptual domain from the parallel wave of cloud-native observability solutions. In recent months, we have seen a steady stream of independent articles, interviews, and technical commentary circling around the same underlying point: modern embedded systems are becoming too dynamic, too concurrent, and too software-defined to be understood from static views alone.
Of course, source code matters, architecture matters, and static analysis and unit tests still matter. But they do not show what the system actually does.

Momentum around Embedded Observability
Embedded World this month was a strong reminder that embedded software teams are under growing pressure from several directions at once. What stood out to me in Nuremberg was that observability is no longer a niche topic. More teams are recognizing that better runtime insight is not just useful when something has already gone wrong, but as a continuous feedback loop throughout development and test.

Embedded world, Zephyr 10 years, Renesas specials, VS Code – and more
This year, we are putting extra focus on Continuous Observability for embedded software, from faster debugging and better profiling in development, to earlier detection of anomalies and stronger insight into runtime behavior across the software lifecycle. We’d love to show you first hand – come meet us at Embedded World in Nuremberg.
You’ll also find good news if you are starting with Zephyr with our special 10th anniversary gift to the community – our new Percepio Detect 2026.1 with Zephyr support.

CTO And Founder Observations
Intermittent runtime issues are among the most expensive problems in embedded development. They often hide during testing but appear under specific conditions in real workloads, that may depend on various states, inputs and timing effects. Our focus at Percepio is to make those issues visible sooner and easier to understand.

Holiday Observations – and a Goodbye from Mike Skrtic
As we approach the Christmas holidays, it feels like a good moment to slow down for a short reflective pause. It has been a wild year. Our heartfelt thanks go out to customers and partners who have kept us engaged and inspired — and my personal thanks to all colleagues, supporters, and collaborators in every form and shape who have added motivational fuel and helped propel Percepio further than ever.
