Himax and Seeed Studio Unite to Redefine IoT with Physical AI Agent SenseCAP Watcher Powered by WiseEye2 AI Processor at CES 2025
TAINAN, Taiwan, Dec. 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Himax Technologies, Inc. ("Himax") (NASDAQ:HIMX) and Seeed Studio ("Seeed"), an innovative Internet of Things (IoT) technology company specializing in hardware research, production and sales for edge computing, network communication, and smart sensing applications, today announced their collaboration at CES 2025 to showcase Seeed's SenseCAP Watcher, a groundbreaking real-time, ultralow power monitoring IoT device.Powered by Himax's ultralow power WiseEye2 HX6538 AI processor, the SenseCAP Watcher's comprehensive vision and sound sensors and speaker can detect, understand, and respond to complex scenarios. SenseCAP Watcher's precision and efficiency is enabled by integrating ultralow power edge AI inferencing, along with the power of large language models (LLMs) in the cloud. By combining the power of edge computing with cloud capabilities, the collaboration between Himax and Seeed marks a significant advancement in complex scene monitoring. This hybrid approach enables high-performance processing while minimizing energy consumption, paving the way for smarter, more efficient IoT solutions.The SenseCAP Watcher is meticulously designed to address the growing demands of IoT for real-time data processing. By processing data locally through WiseEyeTM on-device AI, SenseCAP Watcher ensures immediate and accurate responses to user commands and event detections, which is critical in applications requiring quick decision-making. For instance, a user can speak out a command to monitor a space, and SenseCAP will promptly notify the users when an event occurs there. The device can also detect objects such as people, pets, or items using WiseEye technology and utilize cloud-based LLMs to capture precise user-specified events, behaviors and the status of these objects. Additionally, once the SenseCAP detects specified events, it can interact with the user through voice responses, ensuring that users are kept informed of any specific changes or events in their environment. A real-world application of this could be in a department store, where, when a customer picks up a product, the SenseCAP responds with "Good choice!" and immediately notify the salesperson with a message saying, "Someone is interested in the latest product! Please check the shelf ASAP." By combining real-time monitoring with intelligent interaction, the SenseCAP Watcher serves as an essential tool for IoT applications that require immediate action, such as security monitoring, automation, and critical decision-making.The SenseCAP Watcher leverages a collection of innovative technologies that deliver intelligent, efficient, and adaptable IoT solutions:Advanced Hardware Integration: Built on the Seeed's ESP32S3 platform and integrated with Himax's WiseEye2 HX6538 AI processor, the world's first solution featuring Arm Cortex-M55 CPU and Ethos-U55 NPU. The integration excels in image and vector data processing and comes equipped with camera, microphone, and speaker, enabling it to see, hear, and speakOn-Device AI + LLM for Cost-Effective Scene Understanding: Powered ...Full story available on Benzinga.com
