“The video camera market is ripe for wireless solutions that can speed time to market, ensure low power consumption and extend battery life, and at the same time simplify the design process. InnoPhase IoT’s Talaria TWO platform fit that bill”

Talaria TWO features for video use-cases include:

• Integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for easy provisioning
• Ultra-Low-Power (ULP) Wi-Fi at BLE power levels
• Complete networking TCP-IP stack on integrated controller enables low latency, always ON cloud connectivity and eliminates image loss issues
• Robust throughput under noisy conditions; supports up to 2K camera resolution

Untethered wireless cloud connectivity and long battery life are two major design barriers for video IoT. Only approximately 10% of video cameras, for example, are currently battery-operated primarily due to battery life limitations of 3-6 months. Moving to a wireless format, however, has so far been problematic, as ubiquitous Wi-Fi is inherently power hungry, rapidly draining video camera’s batteries. Location of the IoT device often makes access difficult and changing batteries cumbersome and time consuming. The InnoPhase IoT solution features 40% lower power consumption and 1+ year battery life performance, coupled with the availability of a variety of market ready solutions from OEMs and ODMs.

“The video camera market is ripe for wireless solutions that can speed time to market, ensure low power consumption and extend battery life, and at the same time simplify the design process. InnoPhase IoT’s Talaria TWO platform fit that bill,” said David Ho, Director at Product Marketing at OMNIVISION. “I expect the IoT camera market to grow rapidly with this dramatic increase in battery-life and lower energy consumption,” he added.

According to Mr. Hao, Product Manager at Hualai Technology, an ODM focused on smart video camera manufacturing, “We selected the OMNIVISION OA8000 platform as it is the best performing low power consumption video processing solution, and it has been extensively used by tier 1 customers worldwide. Combined with InnoPhase IoT’s Talaria TWO Wi-Fi/BLE module, it enables ultra-low power and direct-to-cloud connectivity for battery operated cameras. This allows us to offer quick time to market video products for our end customers.”

“The release of Galvan is a significant step forward in the field of mental health and AI”

Galvan, which was released in the App Store and Play Store last month, uses AI to measure mental health conditions through a person’s vocal biomarkers. With a 20-second voice recording, the algorithm processes millions of data points in a person’s speech and shoots back results of their stress, mood, and energy levels.

This is made possible through Galvan’s partnership with Canary Speech, a group of voice-recognition and healthcare experts. Among the team is Jeff Adams, the founding manager of the Amazon Alexa speech group and author of 21 Amazon patents. Canary’s algorithms currently have seven issued patents and six pending.
