Through the acquisition of SNAPSensor SA, specialized in highly innovative vision sensing technologies, Analog Devices strenghtened its leadership position in sensing and signal processing and build upon platform level Internet of Things (IoT) solutions such as ADI's award-winning Blackfin Low Power Imaging Platform (BLiP). SNAP Sensor's patented technology offers significant improvements to existing optical sensors by ensuring accurate image detection in challenging lighting conditions.
It improves sensing reliability and accuracy in a range of detection, identification, and guidance uses. In addition, much of the image management is performed on the sensor, enabling the use of affordable and lower power processors.
