ROADTRIP Mar 31, 2022

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

Shuko has a passion for motorcycles and takes Geoff on a (virtual) weekend ride on curvy mountain roads. What helps make their ride safer and more comfortable is ARAS, Bosch’s Advanced Rider Assistance System. Two of its developers, Yuki Oshida and Daniel Vetter, explain how they transferred ideas like adaptive cruise control from passenger cars to motorcycles. Turns out, 2-wheelers have peculiar physics! Victor Manuel Rivera knows that, too. He pushes the limits of the laws of physics during his motorcycle circus act: The Globe of Speed. No risk, no fun? Wrong, says Shuko. After an exclusive test ride with Daniel, she is convinced that electronic systems can mitigate some of the risks inherent to motorcycles without reducing the fun. Warning: this episode might evoke a passion for motorcycles in listeners as well!

DIGITALIZING MANUFACTURING: NEXEED it! Feb 24, 2022

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

What is the Industrial Internet of Things and can it help connect a whole factory, even when it’s equipped with lots of old machines? The first step to finding this out is to call Marian Demme. The IIoT expert helps companies digitalize manufacturing with NEXEED, Bosch’s software portfolio for Industry 4.0. Proving its value, Tobias Pfister talks about how production lines at the Bosch plant in Bamberg, Bavaria boosted their efficiency thanks to NEXEED. With this software, just one small valve for a motor can have a record of 1,000+ data points attached to it. Get ready and join Geoff and Shuko in exploring the world of IIoT!

REINFORCING THE HUMAN VOICE WITH ELECTRO-VOICE Dec 16, 2021

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

Testing 1,2, 1, 2, can you hear me?….Whether we’re in a huge stadium, or our cozy homes, making our voices heard above the noise can be quite difficult. Few people know this better than musician Daniel Kemish, who plays his song “Just Tonight” exclusively for us from his very own kitchen. Daniel is a huge fan of gear from Electro-Voice, Bosch’s own brand of professional microphones and loudspeakers, a brand that our hosts Shuko and Geoff discover has its origins in a football field. Electro-Voice expert Bob Rieder explains the challenges of making voices and music sound great in a stadium, while engineer Andrew Pardoe tells us how he found solutions to these problems with the help of a computer farm. Andrew used these lessons to develop MTS, a giant loudspeaker that brings HiFi sound to massive venues. Plus, there are some special seasonal treats — for our hosts as well as for you, our listeners. Happy listening — and happy holidays!

HEATING WITH HYDROGEN Nov 24, 2021

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

Chilling! Yes, that applies to both the autumn weather where our hosts Shuko and Geoff live, and the suspense in this episode: Will Bosch engineer Tom Collins find a climate-friendly way to heat homes in Britain? He has struggled for years to find an answer, until one day one meeting changed his thinking about what isn’t feasible and what is. Spoiler alert: Heating with hydrogen could be a solution…Speaking of the challenges of sustainable heating, we also talk about the Princess Elisabeth research station in Antarctica which can be heated with just solar and wind power. Guus Luppens has installed some of the solar panels with his own hands and tells us about his plans to make the station even less dependent on fossil fuels in the coming years. Get yourself a nice hot cup of tea (or coffee, cocoa, or cider) and listen!

MILKY WAY - NURTURING THE STARS OF THE FUTURE Aug 26, 2021

Show notes

From KNOW-HOW to WOW - the Bosch Global Podcast

Pop quiz: what does the term “Milky Way” make you think of? Probably many things, like the galaxy or a candy bar, but what about breast milk? Or even IoT? Believe it or not, in the story of our new podcast episode of From KNOW-HOW to WOW these have more in common than you’d think: “Many mothers in Vietnam are facing the challenge of squaring their work with the wish to keep breastfeeding beyond maternity leave,” says Bosch senior delivery manager Dinh Thi Kim Thoa. That’s why she and her team in Ho Chi Minh City have developed Milky Way, a breast milk delivery service between the mother’s workplace and the baby’s daycare. The solution is based on a cooling box with smart Bosch sensor technology. A combined humidity, temperature and pressure sensor helps ensure both the freshness and safety of the milk. Bosch expert Thomas Block will share countless intriguing details about this 2.5 mm small Sensortec wonder.

Speaking of small wonders, we have a special announcement. Here on Earth, on the outskirts of the Milky Way, a new star is developing: Melena is pregnant! Whoop!!! This is her final show before she goes on maternity leave. All the best to the small family and thank you for 14 awesome shows! Starting in September, the great Shuko will co-host with Geoff. Welcome, Shuko!
