The Genesis of Cognitive: From Curiosity to Breakthrough
Technical Expertise
Founded by experts in silicon design, RF technology, physics, and cryptography, Cognitive Systems revolutionizes Wi-Fi applications and pioneers contextual motion understanding. We unlock its true potential for wireless technology applications, from communication to innovative motion sensing.
Chip Innovation
In 2015, we engineered the R10 chip, a remarkable innovation capable of extracting valuable insights from RF signals, showcasing the potential of Wi-Fi Sensing technology. This chip enables access to concealed channel state information in commercial chipsets, refining our motion detection algorithms.
Market Launch
This pivotal work paved the way for the creation of Aura Home, our groundbreaking consumer product that marked the advent of an entirely novel solution in the market. When it launched in December 2017, Aura Home set a precedent, revolutionizing the landscape with its innovative features.
Revolutionizing Wi-Fi
We expanded Wi-Fi Sensing by partnering with Plume Design, Inc. in 2020, introducing Sense powered by WiFi Motion in its AI-Driven HomePass solution. This marked a significant milestone in Wi-Fi Sensing’s journey for broader adoption and applications across industries.
WiFi Motion Unlocks Endless Applications
Since the successful launch of our initial Wi-Fi Sensing product, we’ve collaborated with chipset manufacturers for next-gen compatibility. Simultaneously, we’ve demonstrated to service providers that Wi-Fi Sensing is a low-cost, scalable, and valuable enhancement with its software-centric approach, camera-free operation, and versatile applications.
Advancement through Collaboration
Today, Cognitive Systems licenses our comprehensive Wi-Fi Sensing software stack called WiFi Motion, integrating it into routers, mesh routers, gateways, and client devices. We collaborate closely with service providers and chipset manufacturers to enable Wi-Fi devices to detect and interpret motion. This integration adds contextual awareness, providing valuable insights into indoor user behavior.
