Emza Visual Sense – Company Profile
Emza Visual Sense pioneers the development of autonomous, miniature machine-vision devices for interpreting the visual world around us. Emza’s technology explores the limits of what can be achieved with minimal resolution, frame rate, processing power, power consumption – and cost. To realize this vision, emza develops extremely efficient machine vision architectures and algorithms. Emza’s unique ultra-lean architectural and algorithmic approaches run on extremely thin micropro-cessors, typically consume under 1mW, and operate for years on a small battery. The sensors are capable of detecting, tracking, classifying and understanding the context of its environment. Among other abilities these sensors can detect, track and identify objects, people and animals. This intelli-gence is applied locally on the device, passing only relevant information up to the network. This ap-proach is fundamental to reducing the communication needs and significantly reducing power as well as false positive detection rate.
The technology is based on patented breakthroughs. Emza delivers turn-key solutions performing real-time contextual awareness such as face detection and human presence detection and activity profiles. Such ‘information analytics sensors’ offer significant value to the exciting new ‘always on’ computer vision market, which demands visual sensors that can be easily integrated into TVs and smartphones, as well as AR/VR, IoT, outdoor and indoor security, occupancy detection, people counting and AI devices.
