Vimicro Corporation was founded in 1999 at Zhongguancun, Beijing by several entrepreneurs from Silicon Valley, with initial support from the Ministry of Information Industry (MII).
ChipX Inc. is a Palo Alto, CA-based company in the Computers and Electronics sector.
AIStorm, Inc. specializes in AI-in-sensor processing solutions. The Company offers sensors which eliminates the latency, power, and cost associated with digital graphics processing unit (GPU) based implementations. AIStorm serves customers worldwide.
Empower Semiconductor was founded to solve fundamental problems in power delivery for data-intensive applications. Traditional power solutions require dozens of discrete components with big footprints, complex designs and deliver power inefficiently with poor response times and inaccuracies. Empower`s patented IVR technology integrates dozens of components into a single IC increasing efficiency, shrinking footprints by 10x and delivering power with unprecedented simplicity, speed & accuracy and with zero discrete components. The Empower Semi IVR technology addresses a wide range of applications including data centers, AI, mobile, 5G, and IoT. The company is based in Milpitas, CA and is led by a team of highly experienced power experts and executives.
Princeton Infrared Technologies, Inc. (PIRT) is focused on supplying Shortwave Infrared detectors to both the commercial and defense markets. PIRT is a fabless semiconductor company focusing on design and integration. The products will be manufactured by leveraging more established semiconductor fabrication facilities to produce products in quantity with high quality at low cost. This model is used through the semiconductor industry, but not in the infrared detector business. In the past the infrared imaging industry had no commercial foundries to manufacture the “exotic” materials used to produce IR detectors, but that today is no longer true. Now that fabrication facilities can manufacture infrared parts, our fabless model will lead to much lower cost and improved devices for both the defense and the commercial sectors. Also, leveraging advance Silicon CMOS technologies enables PIRT to gain the advantages of technology developed for the commercial arena. Having the fabrication conducted at an outside foundry allows PIRT to concentrate on design of the product, managing the process, and conducting final assembly, which minimizes the equipment and staff needed, thus overhead costs. This is the model used by almost all modern electronic manufacturers.
