Collaboration combines Origin AI’s proven motion-sensing technology with Synaptics’ Veros™ WiFi® connectivity solutions to enable seamless and scalable integration in the smart home ecosystem.
Origin℠ AI, the inventors of AI Sensing℠, today announced a strategic partnership with Synaptics, a leading-edge AI processor and connectivity solutions provider, to integrate Origin’s award-winning WiFi Sensing software with Synaptics’ Wireless Connectivity SoCs designed for the intelligent edge. This collaboration enables faster deployment of intelligent motion sensing into smart home devices, opening the door for powerful new services across home automation, security and energy management.
Synaptics’ Veros™ family of wireless SoCs brings the latest WiFi standards and other multiprotocol solutions like Bluetooth®, Thread/Zigbee and GNSS for a diverse set of IoT applications. When combined with Synaptics’ Astra™ family of AI-native embedded processors, these wireless SoCs enable on-device AI capabilities for WiFi sensing, vision, audio and voice modalities.
This makes Synaptics’ connectivity solutions a natural foundation for Origin’s software to scale quickly and efficiently. The partnership empowers our joint customer base — ranging from home security, smart home automation, appliances and various other segments — to launch new products without redesigning hardware, significantly shortening time to market and simplifying development.
“This partnership gives our customers real flexibility in the marketplace. They can bring Origin-powered experiences to their existing platforms with minimal friction,” said Spencer Maid, president and CEO of Origin AI. “With Synaptics’ widely deployed chipsets, and with Origin’s software pre-integrated, we’re unlocking a fast path to product innovation. It has never been easier to deliver intelligent motion sensing to consumers.”
The collaboration focuses on enabling embedded sensing in smart plugs, IoT home-hubs, security products, smart lighting and other connected home devices, leveraging WiFi infrastructure already in place. Key benefits of the partnership include the following:
- Faster time to market through hardware and software integration.
- Reduced hardware complexity and cost for our joint partnerships.
- Scalable deployment of next-gen smart home experiences, from automation to wellness monitoring.
“We’re excited to work with Origin AI to advance what’s possible in the smart home,” said Shishir Gupta, Synaptics VP of product marketing, wireless connectivity. “By combining our high-performance, low-power WiFi solutions with Origin’s AI sensing technology, we’re helping customers move faster and deliver more value through intelligent connectivity.”
