Problem
Many edge devices and wearables require continuous sensing and contextual understanding, but existing processors consume excessive power, limiting battery life and restricting always‑on capabilities.
Solution
FotoNation’s TriSilica® platform provides an ultra‑efficient silicon and memory architecture that fuses vision, audio, and sensor inputs directly at the source to deliver real‑time perceptive cognition. The design supports always‑on event detection with minimal energy draw, enabling devices to maintain continuous awareness without frequent recharging. TriSilica scales across three product tiers—NANO for ultra‑low‑power wearables, CORE for advanced signal processing, and PRO for full AI analytics and reasoning—allowing manufacturers to select the appropriate performance level for their application. By integrating sensing, processing, and contextual reasoning on a single chip, the platform reduces system complexity and latency, facilitating responsive AI agents in a wide range of form factors.
Target Audience
Primary customers are manufacturers of low‑power wearables, edge AI hardware, robotics, and autonomous agents that require continuous perception and contextual understanding.
