AMD on Wheels NZ
Join us for AMD on Wheels NZ, a free hands-on technical event tailored for engineers, developers, researchers, and students. Hosted in collaboration with AMD, Avnet, and AUT, this event explores the cutting edge of Edge AI, adaptive SoCs, FPGA architectures, and AI-assisted engineering.
Whether you are an expert or new to FPGAs, this session provides valuable production-level insights.
🚀 Event Highlights:
• Insights from AMD, Avnet, AUT, and industry experts on next-generation AI and adaptive computing.
• Hands-on workshops and interactive learning sessions covering Edge AI to emerging agentic applications.
• Live technology demonstrations featuring leading AI and edge computing solutions.
• Networking opportunities with local engineers, innovators, and peers.
Registration is free, but space for the practical workshops is limited.

Speakers
Joachim Cain of Avnet
One engineer, a full RFSoC design
A complete project - specified, designed, and implemented with AI tooling - running on AMD RFSoC hardware. Work that used to need a team is now within the reach of one engineer.
David Farrell of Avnet
Idea to hardware in days
An agentic, specification-driven workflow that turns MATLAB, Python, or C/C++ algorithms into working FPGA prototypes - in days, not months.
Jason Yin of Avnet
Achieve a working video pipeline in days with Agentic AI spec-driven design
An Agentic AI workflow where one specification drives the FPGA design, the Linux stack and the drivers - validated on AMD KriaTM SoM hardware in days, not months.
