In this one-year anniversary episode of Object Stats, CTO John Bicket and SVP, Product Johan Land dive deep into how the rapid adoption of AI tools is fundamentally transforming the daily workflows of Samsara's engineering, product, and design teams.

From designers generating functional UI code to developers managing multiple AI coding agents in parallel, discover how these cutting-edge technologies are reshaping the modern software development lifecycle."

John Bicket sits down with hardware CTO Ben Calderon and Marshall Haltom, a mechanical engineer on his team, to explore Samsara's new AI Multicam.

They talk about how this product expands on existing dash cam technology, adding four more AI-powered video feeds to provide complete 360-degree visibility for large vehicles.

Marshall shares stories from the trenches of installing many AI Multicams across a variety of fleets, from school buses to garbage trucks and construction equipment, lying on a gravel path in the blistering heat of Arizona or in the cold of the fall on the East Coast.

Ben and Marshall also open the kimono on the intense hardware design process, from initial prototypes to adapting to real-world challenges discovered in the field and the rigorous reliability testing required to ensure the hardware survives in harsh environments.
