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 HONOR’s 200 Lite smartphone, HONOR’s
latest entry level launch for the global market. Elliptic Labs’
partner MediaTek will run the HONOR 200 Lite smartphone with the
Dimensity 700 chipset. Elliptic Labs previously announced this
contract in May 2023.
“Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Smart Sensor Platform has been chosen
by HONOR to drive software-only innovation from their entry-level
to flagship devices across 20 models,” said Laila Danielsen, CEO of
Elliptic Labs. “Through our industry-leading expertise in AI/ML,
ultrasound technology, and sensor fusion, the largest global
smartphone makers like HONOR have consistently made the AI Virtual
Smart Sensor Platform a key element to further push their
smartphone designs. This is why the top smartphone manufacturers
like HONOR depend on Elliptic Labs to deliver 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
