Today Movidius announced that the company is being acquired by Intel. As a deep learning startup, Movidius’s mission is to give the power of sight to machines. Our leading VPU (Vision Processing Unit) platform for on-device vision processing combined with Intel’s industry leading depth sensing solution (Intel RealSense Technology) is a winning combination for autonomous machines that can see in 3D, understand their surroundings and navigate accordingly,” said Movidius CEO Remi El-Ouazzane. “Today, we’re working with customers like DJI, FLIR, Google and Lenovo to give sight to smart devices including drones, security cameras, AR/VR headsets and more. But today’s smart devices, while compelling, offer just a glimpse of what’s to come.” According to El-Ouazzane, when computers can see, they can become autonomous and that’s just the beginning. Movidius has been attacking this challenge at the device level – combining advanced algorithms with dedicated low-power hardware. At Intel, Movidius engineers will be part of a team that is attacking this challenge from the cloud, through the network and on the device. |
