Seeing Machines and OMNIVISION Launch Silicon Platform with Interior Sensing Technology Optimized with Occula® Neural Processing Unit


Announced at CES 2023, automakers now have a powerful and cost-effective in-cabin monitoring solution for space-constrained areas that also meets the strict European regulations

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Seeing Machines Limited (LSE: SEE), the advanced computer vision technology company that designs AI-powered operator monitoring systems to improve transport safety, and OMNIVISION, a leading global developer of semiconductor solutions, including advanced digital imaging, analog, and touch & display technology, today announced the successful integration of Seeing Machines’ leading in-cabin monitoring system technology (ICMS) with the OMNIVISION OAX4600 system-on-chip (SoC) platform.

Optimized by Seeing Machines’ Occula® neural processing unit (NPU), the OMNIVISION OAX4600 will provide automakers with a new, powerful, and cost-effective solution to meet and exceed the regulatory requirements associated with the European Commission’s General Safety Regulation as well as Europe’s New Car Assessment Program (Euro NCAP) protocols.

Working closely together, OMNIVISION and Seeing Machines have integrated Seeing Machines’ embedded driver monitoring engine (e-DME) into the OAX4600 SoC silicon, which is specifically targeted toward the expanding automotive ICMS market. The Seeing Machines e-DME makes use of the Occula NPU integrated in the OAX4600 to reduce the load on the on-board Arm processors while accelerating the core tracking pipeline.

When paired with OMNIVISION’s broad range of high-resolution, wide-field-of-view automotive RGB-IR sensors or near-infrared (NIR) sensors, the OAX4600 device, integrated with Seeing Machines’ robust automotive ICMS solution, enables a powerful combination of performance, cost and power efficiency in a form factor that allows it to be packaged into space-constrained areas of the vehicle.

“We are very happy to be working with OMNIVISION to bring our Occula NPU to the market integrated with the OAX4600 SoC,” said Paul McGlone, CEO, Seeing Machines. “Seeing Machines’ software and hardware embedding capabilities, combined with OMNIVISION’s automotive camera sensor and design expertise, are clearly demonstrated with this silicon. We are…

The interior ministry’s information technology department suggests seven ways to protect computers from hackers. Interior ministry

The Ministry of Interior’s Department of Information Technology has presented seven tips to protect the security of computers and computer systems across the Kingdom to prevent hackers from trespassing and committing cybercrimes.

The department said that while computers play an important role in facilitating many general tasks in the modern world, they also have the potential to cause harm, as any computer that is connected to the internet is capable of being hacked.

They said there were many computers around the world that had been hacked and used to commit various crimes, like extortion, fraud, or the ordering

of illegal goods. To prevent theft

through technology, the ministry has shared seven key tips – using a firewall, updating system and software, avoiding “free” security scans, downloading files with precautions, installing reputable security software, backing up important data; and using a pop-up blocker.

According to the department, a firewall is a protective barrier between a computer and the internet. Everything that goes in and out of a computer must pass through the Firewall. If any viruses attempt to enter the computer, the firewall will immediately block them from access.

The software and internal systems of each company’s computer are constantly being updated for security reasons, so it is important to update the operating system and software regularly, every time an update is issued.

The department also advised people against using anti-virus software that is available for free download from any website as it may contain links to viruses.

People should avoid downloading programmes from any website that they are not familiar with and refrain from downloading files, videos or songs that anonymous people have sent to them as they could contain viruses.

As a precaution, they are advised to use anti-virus and anti-spyware software to remove any viruses that may be on their computer and to prevent new ones from attaching themselves to the system. If the computer already has this software installed, viruses will not be able to…
