Reality AI Explorer Tier aims to simplify customer experience in evaluating embedded real-time analytics development environments. Users can explore various pre built AI applications and experience the powerful features of Reality AI Tools without excessive settings or support. Through application examples, users can easily utilize Renesas' development suite for development (such as the AI suite reference platform that includes sample datasets), covering applications such as accelerometer/vibration analysis, audio classification, and motor control.

Mohammed Dogar, Vice President and Head of Business Development and Ecosystem for Renesas, stated: "With the increasing importance of AIoT, many customers have shown strong interest in building AI applications at the edge and end, and have developed relevant expertise. Reality AI Explorer provides us with a valuable opportunity to experience the leading AI development environment in the market without incurring any upfront costs. We firmly believe that many customers will use this platform as the first step in establishing mass-produced AIoT applications

Dr. Kilian von Neumann Diesel, Head of Brose Silicon Valley, stated, "We have extensively utilized Reality AI Tools to deploy highly cost-effective AI solutions for automated quality assurance applications. We envision implementing various embedded sensing applications through this powerful AI/ML development

Reality AI Tools is now tightly integrated with Renesas computing products and natively supports all Renesas MCUs and MPUs through its built-in component selector engine. In addition, seamless data channels can be established between Reality AI Tools and Renesas' flagship embedded development environment e2 Studio, allowing designers to share data between embedded and AI/ML projects, thereby simplifying the creation of edge and endpoint AI applications.
