Business Wire
Elliptic Labs (OSE: ELABS), a global AI software company and the
world leader in AI Virtual Smart Sensors™ currently deployed in
over 500 million devices, is shipping its AI Virtual Proximity
Sensor™ INNER BEAUTY® on vivo’s V40 Lite smartphone. The vivo V40
Lite smartphone - targeted for the global market - is driven by
Elliptic Labs’ partners Qualcomm's Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset.
Elliptic Labs previously announced this contract.
“vivo’s V40 Lite is the 14th smartphone from vivo to ship with
our AI Virtual Proximity Sensor INNER BEAUTY,” said Laila
Danielsen, CEO of Elliptic Labs. “The rapid growth of our
relationship with vivo is due to power and scalability of our deep
neural networks, our Small Sensing Models (SSMs). These SSMs are a
result of Elliptic Labs’ leadership in AI, ultrasound, and sensor
fusion. Our AI software platform utilizing these SSMs is the
primary reason global smartphone makers like vivo choose Elliptic
Labs to make their devices greener, smarter, and more
user-friendly.”
AI Virtual Proximity Sensor INNER BEAUTY
Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Proximity Sensor detects when a user
holds their phone up to their ear during a call, allowing the
smartphone to turn off its display and disable its screen’s touch
functionality. This keeps the user’s ear or cheek from triggering
unwanted actions during the call, such as hanging up or dialing
numbers. Turning off the screen also helps conserve battery
life.
Proximity detection is a core capability that is used in all
smartphones, but Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Proximity Sensor is a
unique, software-only solution that delivers robust proximity
detection without the need for a dedicated hardware sensor. By
replacing hardware sensors with software sensors, the AI Virtual
Proximity Sensor reduces device cost and eliminates sourcing
risk.
