Descrizione del progetto
Una piattaforma di apprendimento automatico basata su cloud per dispositivi super intelligenti
Nell’industria della produzione dei dispositivi intelligenti c’è sempre più bisogno di soluzioni integrate su ampia scala in grado di combinare tecnologie non intrusive di rilevazione di presenza e riconoscimento gesti intuitivo che non richiedano hardware aggiuntivi. Il progetto IMIR-UP, finanziato dall’UE, intende creare una piattaforma di «machine learning as a service» (MLaaS) che possa integrare facilmente sensori virtuali con dispositivi e smartphone. L’unico requisito della piattaforma è che gli utenti definiscano l’ambiente di funzionamento del prodotto (ad es. memoria, archivio, capacità di calcolo, consumo energetico, impostazioni meccaniche e caratteristiche dei componenti) e selezionino il raggio e la sensibilità che desiderano. I produttori di dispositivi potranno ricevere in seguito un pacchetto di integrazione del software, personalizzato in base ai loro prodotti, e un set di classificatori per l’apprendimento automatico.
Obiettivo
Smart device manufacturers require constant innovation in order to improve their products while simultaneously reducing costs. Hardware-based solutions are expensive, requiring dedicated sensors and long deployment times to fully integrate them into devices, since they must be manually tuned and calibrated for each new type of application. This makes it difficult to customise such devices for different market segments and end-user needs. Furthermore, extra hardware requirements often compromise a device’s design, increasing their bulk and rendering them old-fashioned. Many hardware-based solutions also increase the risk to a user’s privacy and data security, such as those solutions involving cameras. As a result, manufacturers are adopting software-only solutions instead of hardware. However, they do not yet have a presence detection or gesture recognition solution ready for mass commercialization.
Elliptic Labs is the world leader in ultrasound sensing software for smart devices, enabling touchless interactions and gesture interpretation. INNER MAGIC and INNER REFLECTION (IMIR products) are the first-of-their-kind integrated solutions for non-intrusive user presence detection and intuitive gesture recognition, transforming smart devices into genius devices. The aim of the IMIR-UP Phase 2 project is to fully mature our award-winning and patented technology for easy, mass-scale (“plug-n-play”) deployment in any consumer electronic smart device without requiring supplemental hardware (software only). Bringing our innovative IMIR products to the mass market will positively disrupt existing touchless sensing technologies, resulting in an improved user ability to intuitively interact with their smart devices via a natural extension of normal human behaviour. We estimate that we will reach 651.21m smart devices (just 2.87% of our TAM) after the first 5 years of commercialisation, representing accumulated revenues and gross profits of €195.36m and €105.15m respectively.
