“Hard tech is back in favour with the UK and global investment community,” claimed Rupert Baines, pictured, UltraSoC’s CEO. “Our investors are excited by the potential of UltraSoC’s technology and are committed to supporting our aim of putting intelligent analytics into every chip. We will be growing and recruiting on the basis of this investment.”
Companies such as HiSilicon (Huawei), Imagination Technologies, Movidius and Microsemi use UltraSoC technology in their designs and the company’s partners include ARM, Cadence/Tensilica and CEVA.
Dr Alvise Bonivento of lead investor Atlante Tech said: “The time is right for UltraSoC’s embedded intelligence to make a significant difference to mass market and mission critical applications.”
UltraSoC’s IP enables designers to create complex SoCs with built-in intelligence that monitors and responds to real-world behaviour. By monitoring and analysing the behaviour of entire systems, the company says engineers can take action to reduce system power consumption, increase performance, protect against malicious intrusions and ensure product safety.
