Cognitive Systems Partners with Stanley Black & Decker to Create Omni WiFi Security System

Cognitive Systems Corp. has partnered with Stanley Black & Decker to integrate its Aura WiFi motion detection technology into the Omni home security system. Developed collaboratively with Plume, Qualcomm Technologies, and Stanley Black & Decker, Omni utilizes WiFi signal disruptions to detect movement without relying on traditional sensors. The system, controlled through the router, turns any WiFi-connected device into a sensing point, using machine learning to filter out non-human motion. Omni is set to be showcased at CES 2019 with an official release planned for the summer of 2019. Pricing details have not been disclosed.
Motion Detected: Deal Propels Cognitive Systems into Huge Wi-Fi Market

Motion Detected: Deal Propels Cognitive Systems into Huge Wi-Fi Market

Waterloo-based Cognitive Systems has embedded its motion-sensing technology into Stanley Black and Decker's new home Wi-Fi router, Omni. Routers equipped with Cognitive’s software, called Aura, can turn every Wi-Fi-connected device in a home into a motion detector, as wireless signals are disturbed when something moves through them. The deal is a significant step for Cognitive, as Wi-Fi chipsets outsell light bulbs by 20%. The partnership between the two firms comes as the number of wireless devices grows and homes become smarter, requiring Wi-Fi routers to take on data applications and home security responsibilities.
