The acquisition will complement Kneron’s existing business as it makes efforts to expand to the smart car industry.
Vatics executives will join Kneron in order to lead the latter’s surveillance and security camera division. The merged workforce will develop both surveillance and automotive products for Kneron.
This acquisition will allow us to offer full-stack AI solutions, along with our current class-leading NPUs [neural processing units], and will significantly speed up our go-to-market strategy,” said Albert Liu, as per TechCrunch.
