Climax Chooses QuickLogic EOS S3 Sensor Processing Platform for Smart Home Product
December 12 2017 - 6:00AM
QuickLogic Corporation (NASDAQ:QUIK), a developer of
ultra-low power multi-core voice-enabled SoCs, embedded FPGA IP,
display bridge and programmable logic solutions, today announced
that Climax Technology Company, LTD has selected its EOS™ Sensor
Processing Platform for the next generation of their “Voice
Extender” smart home / senior care product. Climax Technology
designs and manufactures complete smart home security and senior
care solutions, providing comprehensive home security, home
automation, medical alarm, live visual monitoring, energy
management, and 24/7 emergency monitoring to assist users to build
a safer, healthier living space. The Voice Extender product enables
users to open a two-way voice communication channel with monitoring
personnel in the event of an emergency by simply pushing a button.
The next generation product will add voice-activated commands in
addition to push-button access, dramatically increasing its
usefulness for emergency situations. QuickLogic’s EOS S3 sensor
processing System-on-Chip (SoC) is a multi-core sensor processing
system that enables a vast array of sensor-based functionality for
applications such as smart home systems. The platform’s dedicated
voice processing architecture enables “always on” voice
applications with extremely low power consumption. In the
Climax application, the EOS S3 processor platform provides local
on-device voice processing with Sensory TrulyHandsfree™ technology,
enabling the Voice Extender product to become voice-activated. The
QuickLogic solution reduces power consumption and the latency
associated with cloud-based voice processing while simultaneously
eliminating the need for a user to push a button to open a
communications channel with support personnel. Additional features
of the EOS S3 platform will be used to support Zigbee/Z-Wave
communications and future versions of the product will likely
support environmental sensing using the platform’s sensor
processing capabilities. “The Climax development team has
recognized the importance of the global trend towards
voice-activated systems and we are proud that they have chosen
QuickLogic and Sensory technology to implement that capability for
their next-generation Voice Extender product,” said Brian Faith,
QuickLogic’s president and CEO. “We are impressed by the wide range
of capabilities and the ultra-low power consumption of the
QuickLogic EOS S3 platform,” said Michael Chang, president of
Climax. “Together with QuickLogic, we will be able to increase our
product’s functionality as we continuously strive to design
products with superior quality and performance, assisting families
to stay healthy, safe, and comfortable.”
