Как мы спроектировали систему виброакустического мониторинга автомобиля на основе волоконно-оптических датчиков

Когда речь заходит о телеком-компаниях, в качестве первых ассоциаций обычно приходят интернет, мобильная связь или оптические сети. Но современная телеком-инфраструктура — это не только каналы передачи данных, но и инструмент, который помогает собирать информацию об окружающем мире.Привет, Хабр!

Кладбище умных устройств: кто умер, кто еще поживет и что будет дальше

В начале 2026 Apple тихо похоронила то, что, казалось, наконец станет успехом среди AR/XR-устройств - свой Vision Pro.

Бенчмарки врут? Бизнес мигрирует на открытые веса, а FDA и ФЗ заставляют уходить на свой инференс: ML-дайджест

Если водить спорткар, то только на идеальном глянцевом треке. Тогда он всегда будет показывать рекордное время. Я думаю, примерно так топ-менеджмент ИИ-компаний и описывает работу своих моделей инвесторам. Проблема в том, что бизнес-процессы — это дорога с ямами. Долгое время индустрия закрывала глаза на то, как именно LLM бьют рекорды на лидербордах. Но эпоха слепого доверия корпоративных данных чужим «черным ящикам» по ту сторону API подходит к концу. Или нет?... Read more

Почему мы разделили UI, бизнес-логику и ядро: архитектура платформы «Галактика Сверхновая»

Большинство корпоративных платформ, которые сегодня работают на крупных предприятиях, проектировались 15-20 лет назад. С тех пор сменились языки программирования, подходы к разработке, требования к интеграциям и интерфейсам. Архитектура же во многих случаях осталась прежней.Мы задумались – можно ли сохранить проверенную бизнес-логику, не переписывая накопленный за десятилетия код, и одновременно сделать платформу открытой для современных технологий?Эту задачу мы и хотели решить при разработке «Галактики Све Read more
