Spark™ 4, Shamir's newest ultra-precise digital measurement device, deploys Inuitive's NU4000 vision-on-chip processor together with IMDT's accurate 3D technology, to offer opticians a simple and effective ophthalmic measurement experience

RA'ANANA, Israel , Feb. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Shamir Optical Industry Ltd., a world-leading designer and producer of premium progressive lenses and molds for the ophthalmic industry, recently announced its next-generation digital measurement device, The Spark™ 4. The device uses a sophisticated electro-optic system based on Inuitive's NU4000 processor, integrated into IMDT's 3D stereo vision platform.

The Spark™ 4's advanced lens measurement system uses the NU4000 processor to run IMDT's proprietary 3D technology along with six high resolution camera sensors, taking Spark™ 4's system accuracy to a level never seen before.

The NU4000 vision-on-chip processor is the first generation of the NU4X00 series of products and is ideal for robotics, drones, VR, and edge-AI applications that demand multiple sensor aggregation, processing, packing, and streaming. It is specifically designed for robots and other applications that must sense and analyze the environment using three, six, or more cameras, as they make real-time actionable decisions based on that input.

"Inuitive's NU4000 processor enables accurate measurement of eye characteristics and is comfortable to utilize," said Avi Shimon , CEO and Co-Founder of IMDT. "It was the natural choice for developing and running a flexible end-to-end 3D and AI processing platform for the Spark™ 4 measurement system."

"The NU4X00 vision-on-chip series, including legacy and future products, is the processor of choice for applications that need to stream video from multiple sensors at high speed and low latency while keeping the streams accurately time stamped and synchronized," said Shlomo Gadot , Inuitive's CEO and co-founder. "We are committed to continue collaborating with integrators to push industries and innovations forward."

About Inuitive Inuitive's disruptive Vision-on-Chip processors introduce all-in-one chips with a wide range of integrated capabilities, outstanding performance, optimal size, and cost efficiency.

Paris-based startup Prophesee, a maker of camera chips inspired by the way the human eye works, said on Monday it has signed a multi-year deal with Qualcomm Inc to be used with the smartphone technology giant's product. While today's camera chips continuously process the full frame of images, Prophesee's chip will only process changes in the scene, such as light or movement, which makes it faster and requires less computing power, said Luca Verre, co-founder and chief executive at Prophesee. There are a million pixels on Prophesee's latest chips.

MOSCOW (Reuters) -U.S. tech giant Apple has paid a 906 million rouble ($12.12 million) fine in a Russian antitrust case alleging abuse of its dominance in the mobile apps market, Russia's Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS) said on Monday. Apple, which did not immediately respond to a request for comment, has previously "respectfully disagreed" with a FAS ruling that Apple's distribution of apps through its iOS operating system gave its own products a competitive advantage. The FAS determined in August 2020 that Apple had abused its dominant position, then issued a directive requiring Apple to remove provisions giving it the right to reject third-party apps from its App Store.
