AONDevices Unveils Edge AI Sensor Module in Collaboration with P-Logic Consulting

AONDevices announced the launch of its AONix Edge AI sensor module, a new platform that addresses key challenges for battery-operated connected devices running artificial intelligence on the edge. Developed in collaboration with P-Logic Consulting and featuring sensor integration from TDK InvenSense, this compact 32mm x 32mm module is an energy-efficient platform with the ability to deliver real-time AI performance in always-on applications, particularly for consumer electronics.

STMicroelectronics has announced the LSM6DSV16BX, a unique highly integrated sensor that delivers important space savings inside hearable devices or general-purpose TWS earbuds, including for sports. The new device delivers longer listening experiences and superior hearing by combining a 6-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) for head tracking and activity detection with an audio accelerometer for detecting voice through bone conduction in a frequency range that exceeds 1KHz.

Syntiant unveiled its TinyML Development Board, an easy-to-use developer kit aimed at both technical and non-technical users for building machine learning-powered applications in smart products, such as speech commands, wake word detection, acoustic event detection and other sensor use cases. The new machine learning development board allows developers to build low-power voice, audio and sensor applications using Edge Impulse’s Embedded ML platform.

Demand for True Wireless Stereo (TWS) products reflect the growing demand for multi-function, health care, and connected wearable solutions, all requiring smaller and longer battery life devices. Asahi Kasei Microdevices (AKM) has recently introduced the AKM AK4336ECB ultra low power audio codec, a 4-channel ADC and one channel DAC that supports active noise cancelling designs, complementing its complete portfolio of audio systems and sensors for TWS development.
