Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

Kaching! Your car just earned its own gas money. In the Economy of Things, cars and other machines and devices can become independent economic actors. As they interact and do business, they need to trust each other’s identities and that contracts between machines are executed as agreed upon. Web3 technology can enable these scenarios. Bosch researcher Dr. Nik Scharmann and our virtual host, Geoff’s voice avatar, dive into the challenges and opportunities of the Economy of Things.

HOW CAN WEB3 HELP ENABLE TRUSTED COLLABORATION? Dec 14, 2022

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

Cryptocurrencies are becoming more and more relevant, but they’re only a small part of what is called Web3, a decentralized Internet, based on distributed ledger technology. The idea behind Web3 is that in a highly connected world, the key to be successful is to find the right balance between cooperation and competition, a so-called “copetition”. At Bosch Connected World in Berlin, Shuko and Geoff talked about this to Bosch’s Chief Digital Officer, Tanja Rückert. From Cafer Ince they learned how Bosch Mobility Solutions is developing Web3-based applications. Marcel Kaiser provided some insights into the collaboration between the startup he works at, PolyCrypt, and Bosch. Is the industry warming up to the idea of a Web3-based marketplace?

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

This is a first! Starting with this episode, we’ll bring you a monthly shortcast in addition to our regular episodes. Nerd alert: here’s your chance to dive deeper into one specific aspect of the previous episode. This time, we’re back at Bosch Connected World in Berlin to learn more about software-defined vehicles. A whole hackathon was organized around SDV with teams using open-source tools to develop automotive applications. Guess who’s hosting our deep dives. Hint: it’s neither Shuko nor Geoff, but someone – or something – similar. Tune in and find out!

MAKE CARS MORE SOFTWARE-DRIVEN! Nov 16, 2022

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

What are the benefits of “software-defined vehicles”? Find out in this special episode, which took place LIVE at the Bosch Connected World event on November 9. Our hosts were joined on stage by experts Christian Uebber and Christian Heissenberger, who work at ETAS, the Bosch subsidiary for automotive operating systems and software development kits. During this special episode they talked about the characteristics of these vehicles, and the challenges our teams face in making cars more software-driven. Software is already an integral part of almost every function in modern vehicles, whether it's for electrically adjusting the seat, recharging the vehicle, deploying the airbag, or listening to the radio. But there's so much more to software-defined vehicles, such as over-the-air updates that could improve software-based functionality - just like your smartphone's software updates. Listen in to find out more!

OBJECT-THROWING ROBOTS: CATCH THIS! Oct 27, 2022

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

Throwing and catching are human skills that we not only use in sports, but also as a shortcut - saving time compared to walking a few steps. What if robots could do the same? Bosch Research engineer Timm Linder helps explore this in an EU-funded project called DARKO. In collaboration with research labs across Europe, he and his team are developing a robot that will toss items into bins at a warehouse, while aiming to make the robot behave more intelligently among humans and equipping it with a better 3D perception and semantic scene understanding of the environment it is deployed in. Perhaps the robot can learn some lessons from Ceola McGowan: The world champion in double-bit axe throwing has some advice on how to precisely throw oddly shaped objects and shares her technique with Shuko and Geoff. Our hosts are already dreaming of robots that can toss the laundry into the washer…

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

How to develop self-driving cars? Automated cars become more and more advanced. But this shift toward vehicles that will eventually be autonomous means major architectural changes in how cars are developed. In this episode, Shuko and Geoff are joined by Axel Schwarz, Director for Engineering of L4 Sensors, and Kay Stepper, Senior Vice President for Automated at Driving Bosch North America. Both explain how cars can use a cycle of “sense, think, act” to move autonomously. And Ben Peters, Cofounder of the Bosch subsidiary FIVE, discusses how he builds special simulation environments that help test drive future vehicle technology. Intrigued? Then let's hit the road!

TRUCK YEAH! Aug 25, 2022

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

What’s the future of more sustainable truck driving? Hydrogen! In this episode, Bosch engineer Michael Marino explains how he and his team develop fuel cell stacks that convert hydrogen into electricity. Each fuel cell produces less than 1 Volt, but hundreds of fuel cells stacked on top of each other can power long-haul trucks. For example, Nikola Motor Company have trucks with Bosch fuel-cell technology on the streets of the United States. These vehicles are quieter and accelerate faster than trucks with a combustion engine, and have 0 g/km local CO² emissions . Moreover, Shuko and Geoff (virtually) visit a farm - a hydrogen farm. Kore, a startup in California, is working on producing green, sustainable hydrogen made from farming waste.

The stack generates the electrical energy used to power the fuel cell electric vehicle. https://www.bosch-mobility-solutions.com/en/solutions/powertrain/fuel-cell-electric/fuel-cell-stack/ https://www.bosch.com/stories/hydrogen-truck/ More Bosch podcasts: Beyond Bosch: https://podtail.com/de/podcast/beyond-bosch/ Mighty Micro: https://mightymicro.podigee.io/

SAVING ENERGY WITH HOMECOM PRO Jul 28, 2022

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

Not to scare anyone, but this episode contains - cold showers!!! Keeping the chills away is Bosch product manager Christoph Bauerdick’s mission. With Bosch’s HomeCom Pro solution, he helps installers keep tabs on the heat pumps, boilers and other heating systems they have installed and ideally fix issues before they lead to cold showers, or worse: no heating at all. HomeCom Pro uses data that appliances generate every twelve seconds. Analyzing these masses of data and bringing them into a human-readable format is the responsibility of Alexandre Chambel. He explains to Shuko and Geoff how data can help customers save energy.

FRESHUP: HOW ODORS CAN BE REMOVED FROM FABRICS EASILY AND ON THE GO Jun 30, 2022

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

Imagine being able to remove odors and bacteria easily and on the go, without needing to wash your clothes. In the latest episode of our "From KNOW-HOW to WOW" podcast, we talk about how our FreshUp device uses plasma technology to remove odors from fabrics simply by brushing over them. Plasma occurs naturally in the universe. During the show, Tobias Wende, a Bosch electronic system engineer, talks about how they were able to incorporate plasma technology, which releases active plasma particles to dissolve simple odor molecules, into a device the size of a glasses case. What an unpleasant smell is, however, differs from one nose to another, says Antonie Bierling, researcher at the Universities of Dresden and Jena. She works on finding out more about which molecules stink and which ones have a lovely scent and shares her know-how with Shuko and Geoff.

THE ROLLING CHASSIS: LET'S GET ROLLING May 26, 2022

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

What do the components of a car have in common with a jazz band? Getting them to play together in unison can be pretty challenging. This is something that car manufacturers know well. For future electric vehicles, a cross-divisional team around Bosch system engineers Erik Goerres and Dieter Schwarzmann want to make manufacturers’ lives easier. To understand the challenges and to improve component integration, they decided to follow the learn-by-doing approach and build their own research-only prototype vehicle. They call it the “Rolling Chassis”. One product that came out of it is the Advanced Driving Module, a package solution with all the Bosch components you need to make an electric vehicle move. Let’s get this episode rolling!
