Having just about recovered from the sore feet and taxi line extravaganza that is CES, I wanted to pass along a few bits of press from the show related to Tim Saxe’s appearance at the Getting to Low Power and Maximum Functionality through Sensor Fusion panel.
EE Times – CES 2015: MEMS that Wearables/IoT Need
Electronic Design – Q&A: MEMS Industry Group Takes On the IoT
ECN – Design Challenges for Wearables
Overall, the CES show continues to be a good one for QuickLogic. As usual, our meeting schedule was packed, and the addition of a stand at the MEMS Showcase in the Sands Expo Center allowed us an opportunity to showcase our product to a larger group of attendees. Certainly one could editorialize and say that the show is just too big for itself now…and while I might be the person leading that charge, CES nevertheless allows companies like QuickLogic the opportunity to meet with dozens of current customers/potential customers/investors/firms in one place, with a minimum of travel and a maximum of efficiency.
Hi Paul,
thank you for your update. How would you compare CES 2014 with CES 2015?
Hello Luca,
I would say that there was as much, if not more, activity and interest around our technology this year as compared to last.
Thanks
Paul
Can you name some of the OEMS that were in attendance?
Any potential engagements that may materialize? When you say
You had more interest at this years show compared to a year
Ago so you mean just a few more or quite a bit of more interest
Because they are now seeing the potential infinite uses of these
Technologies ?
Hello,
The organizers of the panel don’t share attendee lists, so we don’t have an official list of those who were at Tim’s panel talk.
I believe that the interest in our technologies is based around both near term and longer term advantages. In the near-term, we can save power versus alternative methods of sensor hubs, enabling new use cases for OEMs. While saving power, we believe we can also provide more accurate algorithms, which speaks directly to increased user experience and satisfaction.
In the longer term, the ability to save power and provide more accurate algorithms can enable a whole ton of new use cases which can be monetized by OEMs, OS makers, advertisers, and carriers (along with increased user experience and satisfaction, of course).
Thanks for the question!
