Join ITRI at CES 2020

ITRI’s CES 2020 trailer.

ITRI is going to showcase its technology innovations in artificial intelligence (AI) & robotics and digital health, including two CES 2020 Innovation Awards Honorees at CES 2020 in Las Vegas during January 7-10, 2020. At its booth 25650, LVCC, South Hall 2, visitors can meet the PECOLA companion robot; experience the clinically tested non-contact method for sleep apnea—the WiFi Sleep Apnea Detection System; learn about breakthroughs in baby monitoring technology with GenkiCam; and explore the functions of the Mobile Arm Robot System (MARS).

ITRI’s exhibits at CES 2020:

The PECOLA (Personal Companion for Older People Living Alone) robot, a CES 2020 Innovation Awards Honoree, applies its Ambient Intelligence Technology to collect daily life and physiological data unnoticeably and analyze lifestyle, sleep, diet, and physical activities as well as emotions with a high degree of specificity. It facilitates social interaction with caregivers and family and quickly detects abnormal behaviors in older adults--sending alerts for early treatment and accident prevention.
iStimUweaR, a CES 2020 Innovation Awards Honoree, is a health-assisting system that integrates TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) into fabrics. It intelligently evaluates body status and provides optimized stimulation for pain relief, self-massage, and personal healthcare improvement.
WiFi Sleep Apnea Detection System features a clinically tested non-contact method to identify sleep breathing status via low-power WiFi signals and automatically inflates a cushion under the sleeper’s pillow to keep the user’s airway open.
GenkiCam is an AIoT camera deploying a deep neural network and ICA algorithm into an embedded system for baby care. Leveraging machine learning via big data collection, labeling and training, it recognizes a baby’s behavior and emotions as well as detecting heart and respiration rate and sends notifications to parents immediately should any safety issues occur.
MARS is a smart integrated service robot platform combining mobility, sensing, manipulation, and human-machine interaction functions.
Robot with Smart Joints: to reduce design difficulty and occupied volume of the electric control box of a robot manipulator, ITRI integrates the motor and driver into a joint module for each joint of the robot manipulator.
Micro LED Technology and Applications: ITRI’s micro LED display features low power consumption and high brightness. Through innovative "pixel area release" technology, the display integrates sensing functions between pixels and brightness is adjusted automatically according to indoor/outdoor ambient light conditions. Furthermore, panel size can be defined freely, and maintenance expenses are largely saved. In 2019, ITRI developed fine pitch passive matrix micro-LED display modules by directly transferring μLED arrays onto PCB substrates.
ITRI Cloud Gaming system, backed by ARM SOC cluster, breaks the rule that players must download a game to the terminal device. With virtual mobility infrastructure (VMI), the cloud gaming mode moves the workload from the player's device to the data center. Players can simply play a game without downloading it. Through integration with the AI training system, game developers can simulate player behaviors from the battles collected in the data center and reduce game development time effectively.
Mechavision Tactile Sensing Technology: Mechavision Inc., an ITRI spinoff company, provides efficient tactile sensing solutions for robotics and partners with leading companies in the robotics industry. Mechavision’s main product, Contact Skin, is a highly sensitive tactile skin that immediately triggers a robot’s emergency stop when sensing a firm touch. It can be applied to human-robot collaborative scenarios and complies with ISO 13849 (Cat.3, PL d) and ISO/TS 15066. Mechavision has been working with Mitsubishi Electric on transmitting information to the cloud via PLC control software to offer instant manufacturing status for factory managers.
