Following years of transformation efforts, Via Technologies is now dedicated to AI solutions with core technologies covering computer vision, deep learning and machine learning, and among its latest developments is Pixetto vision sensor for educational applications.

The company has newly joined a New Taipei City education program, providing junior high schools in rural areas with Pixetto vision sensors to help students develop AI application capability.

With a host of built-in vision sensor features, support for visual block programming, and an easy-to-use machine learning accelerator, Via Pixetto makes learning AI easy and fun, the company said.

One key element of the Pixetto platform is the addition of pre-built vision AI models for recognizing objects, shapes, colors, faces and symbols such as letters and numbers, and students can use Pixetto software to quickly get these models up and running, and can begin creating their own unique projects with some creativity and basic coding using visual blocks, the company continued.

The company is also stepping up its deployments in smart manufacturing, smart transportation and smart medical applications. Its latest AI in-vehicle safety solutions, including Mobile 360 M 810 edge AI and computer vision system, speed sensor, and driver surveillance lens have already been applied to public buses and industrial forklifts in Taiwan and China.
