Gesture Interaction

Crunchfish signs agreement for a Proof-of-Concept project in a new business segment

Crunchfish has today signed a development agreement with a customer in Asia Pacific to develop a Proof-of-Concept (POC) with Crunchfish’s latest gesture technology. The project will be implemented during Q4 2021 with the goal of showing the results at a trade fair in the first quarter of 2022.

The customer is based in Asia Pacific and develops solutions for the AI technology industry with customers all over the world. To ensure a good technology fit and a market interest, the parties will work together to develop a POC that enables interaction in a car using hand gestures. Both companies’ technologies will be built together into a joint solution before an event during the first quarter of 2022.

For reasons of confidentiality, it is currently not possible to disclose the company name, but hopefully a successful joint POC project will lead to an official announcement of the collaboration. Revenues for the project are not fixed but estimated at around 53kUSD where Crunchfish will be able to charge for time and materials. A successful project can lead to greater revenue.

“We are very excited about this project since it can open up a new business segment for our gesture interaction technology. The global AI technology industry is changing rapidly, which requires new innovative solutions. It is therefore an exciting business to get involved in”, says Joakim Nydemark, CEO of Crunchfish Gesture Interaction

Crunchfish signs agreement with Lenovo for AR glasses

Crunchfish Gesture Interaction AB (“Crunchfish”) enters a license agreement with Lenovo (Shanghai), to enable gesture control in initially Lenovo’s DaystAR New G2 AR glasses. Lenovo will integrate Crunchfish’s software in their commercial AR glasses to enable touchless navigation using hand gestures. It is a 3-years agreement, with a business model that is mainly based on a running royalty per produced unit including Crunchfish’s software.

The agreement gives Lenovo the right to use Crunchfish’s gesture control technology in AR glasses and Smart glasses worldwide over the next 3 years. Lenovo DaystAR New G2 is one of Lenovo’s latest AR glasses targeting enterprise and industrial markets. With the glasses connected to a smartphone or PC, the user can interact with a large virtual screen that not only adds a better user experience, but also provides a lot of new features. By adding gesture control, the users are in full control of the glasses without touching any physical buttons or screens.

Crunchfish XR technology enables an exceedingly precise and flexible interaction solution to control virtual objects or menu systems. To achieve an experience that is as realistic as possible in augmented reality, extreme accuracy is required of how the software interprets the movement of the hand. Crunchfish’s XR technology is optimized for AR glasses and VR devices but also supports interaction with mobile phones and public screens.

Lenovo is focused on a vision to deliver smarter technology for all. By designing, engineering, and building the world’s most complete portfolio of smart devices and infrastructure, Lenovo is also leading an Intelligent transformation – to create better experiences and opportunities for millions of customers around the world.

“We believe the user experience and an intuitive interaction is crucial for the success of our AR glasses why Crunchfish’s gesture control technology is an important part of our solutions”, says Karl Lu, Senior Manager at Lenovo Research.

“We are very proud that Lenovo – a global AR and consumer electronics company – has decided to use our gesture control software in their portfolio of AR glasses. To pass Lenovo’s rigorous evaluation process, further confirms the performance of our software and we are delighted to add touchless gestures to the AR experience for their users”, says Joakim Nydemark, CEO at Crunchfish Gesture Interaction.
