iniVation

iniVation specializes in developing neuromorphic vision systems that mimic the human retina's functionality. The company's core technology, the Dynamic Vision Sensor (DVS), operates differently from conventional cameras by detecting pixel-level changes and generating output only when brightness changes occur. This approach allows for high-quality imaging with low latency and power consumption, offering a dynamic range exceeding 120 dB. In August 2022, iniVation's DVS won the Best of Sensors Award in the Aerospace/Space category. The company introduced its latest high-performance neuromorphic vision sensor technology, Aeveon, at CES 2023. Aeveon combines ultra-high speed event-based sensing with high HDR frame-based output and on-sensor compression, addressing previous limitations in low-light conditions. iniVation's products find applications in various fields, including robotics, consumer electronics, autonomous vehicles, aerospace, and industrial automation. The company's DV software, an open-source event-based framework, supports Windows, Mac, and Linux platforms, offering out-of-the-box solutions for most use cases. In February 2024, iniVation was acquired by SynSense, forming a combined organization to address customer needs for vision sensors, stand-alone processors, and integrated compute-in-sensor devices across multiple markets.
