AOV Technological Breakthroughs and Product Advantages
At the summit, Image Design Technology showcased its innovative achievements in the Always-On Video (AOV) field. In traditional AOV solutions, the SoC receives data from the CIS and performs AI content analysis, resulting in extended SoC operation time and high power consumption. Image Design's proposed solution transforms the CIS into an active device with AI decision-making capabilities. The CIS actively wakes up the SoC, significantly reducing SoC operation time and active modules, thereby achieving ultra-low power consumption. Its core technological advantages include: Low-power design: Meets requirements for long-term operation without network or power supply, greatly reducing wiring and installation costs. Fast startup: Compared to traditional solutions, startup time is significantly reduced, improving user experience. Accurate recognition: Multi-level wake-up modes and AI analysis architecture ensure high accuracy and recall rates under various lighting conditions and scenarios.
