BrainChip and nViso, a specialist in human behavioural analytics, have announced a collaboration targeting battery-powered applications in robotics and mobility/automotive to address the need for high levels of AI performance with ultra-low power technologies.

www.newelectronics.co.uk, Apr. 21, 2022 – 

The initial effort will include implementing NVISO's AI solutions for Social Robots and In-cabin Monitoring Systems on BrainChip's Akida processors.

With developers of automotive and consumer technologies looking to develop devices that better respond to human behaviour, they require tools and applications that are capable of interpreting human behaviour that can be captured from cameras and sensors on devices.

These environments can be constrained, however, by limited compute performance, power consumption, and cloud connectivity lapses. Akida looks to address these weaknesses with high performance and ultra-low power (micro- to milliwatts) as well as by performing AI/ML processing of vision/image, motion, and sound data directly on devices, instead of in the cloud and since information is not sent off-device, user privacy and security are also protected.

NVISO's technology analyses signals of human behaviour such as facial expressions, emotions, identity, head poses, gaze, gestures, activities, and objects with which users interact. In robotics and in-vehicle applications, human behaviour analytics detect the user's emotional state to provide personalised, adaptive, interactive, safe devices and systems.

The result of the collaboration between NVISO and BrainChip is expected to enable more advanced, more capable, and more accurate AI on consumer products.
