El Dorado Hills CA, Dec. 20, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Thinci Inc., an artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning technology and systems company developing leading-edge computing platforms and software for the expanding artificial intelligence market announces its participation at the 2019 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada. Thinci has been invited to exhibit inside its investor and partner DENSO Corporation’s booth, 4619, in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center. Thinci will display and demo its Graph Streaming Processor™ (GSP), Autonomous Driving Suite™, Plug & Code AI Platform™ and small form factor M.2 AI accelerator card.
“We are extremely pleased and excited that our partner and investor DENSO has invited Thinci to participate in their booth at CES 2019,” said Thinci CEO Dinakar Munagala. “DENSO, and the automotive industry overall, are very supportive in helping Thinci bring our artificial intelligence solutions to the automotive market. These include our unique Graph Streaming Processor, Autonomous Driving Suite, Plug & Code AI Platform and a roadmap of innovative small form factor platforms such as our M.2 AI accelerator card that provides industry leading low power and performance in an extremely small form factor. This will contribute to solving the power and space concerns automotive manufactures face with traditional compute architectures.”
“Thinci is a startup company that is developing key AI technology and systems for the challenges posed by autonomous driven vehicles,” said Director of Corporate Ventures, DENSO Corp., Tony Cannestra. “A typical autonomous driven vehicle today has six to eight cameras working in conjunction with lidar and radar systems requiring high-performance CPU and GPU platforms that consume significant power and space in a car trunk. Thinci’s ability to run the same workloads with a much lower power budget and occupying a fraction of the trunk space in a car is what drew DENSO to them. We look forward to Thinci demonstrating their AI solutions in the DENSO booth.”
