Stockholm, Sweden – Neonode Inc., and EPICNPOC have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to ship a multimodal HMI growth platform for automotive OEMs and tier-one suppliers that mixes contactless contact enter with graphical consumer interfaces, script recognition, voice interfaces, gesture sensing, audio and lighting to be used in automobile cockpits.
Neonode’s patented contactless contact know-how is now built-in into EPICNPOC’s catalog of plug-n-play parts and provided in each product and repair options, particularly into EPICNPOC’s BOWL platform.
BOWL is an expertise growth platform for challenge leaders, which mixes a set of purposeful software program, {hardware}, and instruments. The platform permits customers to simply design, develop, validate and check new cockpit and sensible product experiences. BOWL is now out there with contactless contact mixed with an extensible set of shows, consumer recognition, particular person audio, script recognition, lighting and open interfaces.
The contactless contact capabilities are powered by Neonode’s zForce know-how, which makes use of invisible infrared mild to detect contact, in-air movement of consumer palms or objects over any floor, akin to wooden, glass or plastic. The optical sensors are sturdy to electrical noise and different electrically performed interferences, and intelligently calibrate to ambient mild with a purpose to make sure the system will work in all mild situations.
Neonode can also be making its MultiSensing know-how out there to EPICNPOC and their prospects. MultiSensing is a camera-based know-how for scene evaluation, which for instance can be utilized for driver and in-cabin monitoring in autos and for different 3D sensing duties.
With the combination of Neonode’s know-how, BOWL customers now have the flexibility to rework any materials into a sensible interactive floor, offering clever and protected interactions for a lot of purposes within the automotive, sensible house, retail, and sensible furnishings domains.
Bertrand Stelandre, CEO EPICNPOC says “The combination of Neonode’s contactless contact know-how into the BOWL eco-system is a must have for creating phygitalproducts. Our prospects can now simply and shortly remodel any bodily object into a sensible floor.”
City Forssell, CEO Neonode says “Out collaboration with EPICNPOC opens up new market alternatives for us and we see nice potential within the mixture of their choices and our zForce and MultiSensing applied sciences.”
EPICNPOC will likely be demonstrating Neonode know-how at CES in Las Vegas, January 5-8, 2023, in sales space #5400 within the enterprise France (Export) automotive pavilion within the west corridor.
