Ambarella, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMBA), an AI vision silicon company,
Lumentum (NASDAQ: LITE), a market-leading designer and manufacturer
of innovative optical and photonic products, and ON Semiconductor®
(NASDAQ: ON), a leading provider of CMOS image sensor solutions,
today announced two new joint reference designs that accelerate
AIoT device deployment across verticals, building on the companies’
previous joint solution for contactless access systems. By
combining the data from Lumentum’s high-performance VCSEL array
illuminators and an ON Semiconductor image sensor using Ambarella’s
AI SoC, higher levels of accuracy and more intelligent
decision-making can be achieved in next-generation AIoT devices for
biometric access control, 3D electronic locks and other intelligent
sensing applications.
Originally intended for biometric access control and electronic
locks, these new reference designs can also address the needs of
smart cities, smart buildings, smart homes and intelligent
healthcare. Additionally, the high level of integration provided by
these joint solutions significantly lowers system power consumption
and thermal design requirements while enabling much smaller product
form factors.
“Ambarella’s vision is to combine AI processing with 3D and
vision sensing to create an ambient intelligent future,” said Fermi
Wang, President and CEO of Ambarella. “This collaboration with
Lumentum and ON Semiconductor will further advance the convergence
of AI and IoT to enable a new generation of access control systems,
while inspiring novel categories of ambient sensing products—all
powered by the fusion of sensors using AI vision processors that
interact intelligently and unobtrusively with people to address
their ever-evolving needs.”
“Our new joint solutions will greatly increase the accuracy of
AIoT devices across application verticals—starting with biometric
access control and electronic locks—enabling them to recognize
people and predict their needs, rather than requiring a direct
human interface,” said Téa Williams, Senior Vice President and
General Manager, 3D Sensing of Lumentum. “Many of these
applications will take advantage of 3D sensing to inject a new
dimension of data input for improved decision-making. As an
example, using higher resolution VCSEL-based spot illumination
enables longer sensing ranges and higher-accuracy facial
recognition. Lumentum’s industry-leading and high-performance VCSEL
arrays with zero field failures, used across these joint solutions,
are driving new applications and helping realize the dream of AIoT
devices with 3D sensing capabilities.”
“Image sensors are the eyes for intelligent sensing devices.
Their ability to see farther with more detail provides
significantly more information for the AI processor’s
decision-making in AIoT devices,” said Gianluca Colli, Vice
President and General Manager, Industrial and Consumer Sensor
Division (ICSD) group at ON Semiconductor. “Our industry leading
RGB-IR sensor technology, combined with the advanced ISP
capabilities of Ambarella’s AI vision SoCs, can bring both visible
and IR images into devices simultaneously. For this second
generation of our joint solutions, we leveraged customer feedback
to quadruple the resolution of our RGB-IR image sensors to 4K
(8MP).”
The three companies’ new joint AIoT solutions consist of two
reference designs and additional 3D sensing development kits, each
uniquely configured to address application-specific demands for the
combination of AI processing, 3D depth sensing and vision
sensing:
- Targeted at next-generation biometric access control readers,
the Vision+ reference design is the AIoT
industry’s first 4K solution to perform single-camera, 940nm
structured-light sensing based on RGB-IR technology. It is also the
first to leverage a single-chip solution for depth processing, AI
processing and video processing. Based on the Ambarella CV22
CVflow® AI vision processor, it includes single-camera
structured-light sensing powered by Lumentum’s VCSEL technology,
featuring a range of 2 meters, and a 4K (8MP) RGB-IR CMOS image
sensor from ON Semiconductor.
- Targeted at next-generation smart electronic door locks, or
eLocks, for both commercial and residential applications, the
Saturn reference design is the AIoT industry’s
first to integrate AI processing for both single-camera
structured-light sensing and fast-boot video processing. It is
based on the Ambarella CV25 CVflow AI vision processor and includes
a structured-light camera powered by Lumentum’s VCSEL technology
and the AR0237CS 2MP RGB-IR image sensor from ON
Semiconductor.
- Targeted at intelligent sensing applications and with
opportunities across verticals, Ambarella’s CV2 series CVflow AI
vision processor-based development kits can now be outfitted with
ToF sensor adapters that are powered by Lumentum’s leading-edge
VCSEL arrays. An optional 4K RGB-IR image sensor adapter is also
available for these kits.
The open software development kit (SDK) for Ambarella’s CVflow
AI vision processors allows the easy integration of third-party
applications while enabling OEMs to address differing regional
requirements with a single platform (for example, using different
AI algorithms in different regions). Additionally, this robust,
Linux-based SDK expands the capabilities of edge sensing devices,
simplifies product development and speeds time-to-market
through:
- Custom application development capabilities
- Support for different 3D modalities, including structured light
and ToF. Uniquely, a single Ambarella SoC provides 3D sensing
processing without the need for a dedicated depth processor or a
separate host processor
- High AI inference capabilities on the camera device to enable
multiple neural networks (NNs) running simultaneously
- Robust AI tools to support deep neural network (DNN)
development and migration
- Integrated ISP to handle challenging scenes, including high
dynamic range (HDR) and low light scenarios
- Built-in Arm® processors to run customer applications
- Integrated security hardware, including secure boot, OTP to
store encryption keys and Arm TrustZone technology for secure
encryption key comparisons
- Rich peripheral interface support to simplify system
designs
AvailabilityThese joint reference designs and
development kits are expected to be available in June. For more

Additionally, the three companies will present these new joint
solutions on June 2 in a live webinar hosted by Laser Focus World
magazine.
