Seeing Machines signs MOU with leading Semiconductor Company

 

Seeing Machines Limited (AIM: SEE, "Seeing Machines" or the "Company"), the advanced computer vision technology company that designs AI-powered operator monitoring systems to improve transport safety, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with a global semiconductor company, as formal terms of engagement are finalised to license the Company's OcculaTM Neural Processing Unit ("OcculaTM").

 

Targeting the expanding interior monitoring market for the automotive industry, this collaboration represents the third pillar of the Company's recently launched Embedded Product Strategy which has been set out to license OcculaTM in ASIC form, to world-leading semiconductor companies for integration with any automotive compute platform.

 

OcculaTM is a custom accelerator designed for integration into ARM based SoC's (System on Chip) for the purpose of accelerating Seeing Machines' software and to support ultra low-power human face, eye and body tracking. Licensing OcculaTM to third party semiconductor companies creates additional pathways to automotive customers offering Driver Monitoring System (DMS) technology on a range of hardware.

 

Paul McGlone, CEO at Seeing Machines commented: " Licensing our unique IP in this way allows us to distribute our technology through major auto and technology suppliers onto complementary platforms. I'm delighted to see our Embedded Product Strategy coming to life, as we partner with large automotive semiconductor companies, creating new channels to market and addressing the growing integration challenges for driver monitoring technology faced by our OEM and Tier 1 customers."
