Event guide
Why this event is on the calendar
The 2026 Embedded Vision Summit ran May 11–13 at the Santa Clara Convention Center. It is produced by the Edge AI and Vision Alliance for people building computer-vision and physical-AI products that must work under real deployment constraints, rather than only in a lab. The organizer's published program described 90-plus sessions across four tracks, covering vision-language models, edge perception, processor choice, model optimization, training data, autonomy, and deployment at scale.
The attendee experience was deliberately hands-on: keynotes and technical sessions were paired with workshops, VLM training, Deep Dive sessions, an exhibit hall, live demos, and networking. That makes this archived page useful as a record of the 2026 program and of the kinds of engineering questions the Summit convenes. The organizer has since announced a February 2027 event in San Francisco; that later date is separate from this completed 2026 edition.
Who gets value from it
Computer-vision and edge-AI engineers, product leaders, robotics and autonomy teams, component suppliers, and buyers evaluating deployable perception systems.
How the day tends to work
In 2026, attendees could move between practical talks, training, technology exhibits, live product demonstrations, and informal networking. The official program included a dedicated learning day, so the value was as much implementation detail as broad trend-watching.
