| contents | Embedded quantum machine learning (EQML) seeks to bring quantum machine learning (QML) capabilities to resource-constrained edge platforms such as IoT nodes, wearables, drones, and cyber-physical controllers. In 2026, EQML is technically feasible only in limited and highly experimental forms: (i) hybrid workflows where an embedded device performs sensing and classical processing while offloading a narrowly scoped quantum subroutine to a remote quantum processing unit (QPU) or nearby quantum appliance, and (ii) early-stage "embedded QPU" concepts in which a compact quantum co-processor is integrated with classical control hardware. A practical bridge is quantum-inspired machine learning and optimisation on classical embedded processors and FPGAs. This paper analyses feasibility from a circuits-and-systems perspective aligned with the academic community, formalises two implementation pathways, identifies the dominant barriers (latency, data encoding overhead, NISQ noise, tooling mismatch, and energy), and maps them to concrete engineering directions in interface design, control electronics, power management, verification, and security. We also argue that responsible deployment requires adversarial evaluation and governance practices that are increasingly necessary for edge AI systems. |
