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 newly announced iQOO Z9 and Z9
Turbo smartphones. The mid-range vivo iQOO Z9 and Z9 Turbo
smartphones are targeted for the global market. Both vivo devices
are driven by Elliptic Labs’ partner Qualcomm’s chipsets — the iQOO
Z9 ships with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset and the iQOO Z9 Turbo
is driven by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset. The contract for this
launch was previously announced by Elliptic Labs.
"The introduction of our AI Virtual Smart Sensor Platform™ on
vivo’s newest releases of their mid-range iQOO series highlights
Elliptic Labs' technical leadership in delivering the AI Virtual
Proximity Sensor to the smartphone market,” said Laila Danielsen,
CEO of Elliptic Labs. “Our work with major industry players such as
vivo showcases our acknowledged authority in AI/ML, ultrasound, and
sensor-fusion technologies. Our sustained achievements in the
smartphone industry inspire us to create products that are greener,
smarter, and more human-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.
INNER BEAUTY is a registered trademark of Elliptic Labs.
AI Virtual Smart Sensor, AI Virtual Proximity Sensor, and AI
