Omnitron Sensors CEO & Co-founder Eric Aguilar will give attendees of MEMS & Imaging Sensors Summit (a SEMI Europe/MEMS & Sensors Industry Group event) a closer look at the company’s game-changing IP during his presentation: New Topology for MEMS Advances Performance and Speeds Manufacturing (November 14, 2024 at 5:25 pm at the International Conference Center Munich, Germany).

Eric will share new details on Omnitron’s new topology for MEMS — its process IP — which rearranges existing modules to streamline the assembly process and improve capacitance per unit area. This approach increases device performance and accelerates the production of MEMS devices for price-sensitive, high-volume markets.

Omnitron’s topology for MEMS may be applied to precision applications such as augmented reality, LiDAR, and optical cross-connects for AI workflow in datacenters among others.

There are multiple ways that Omnitron’s new topology for MEMS will be able to advance MEMS applications:

• In terms of augmented reality, Omnitron’s miniature MEMS-based micro projector will let users experience the full potential of a see-through augmented environment.
• Based on the new topology, Omnitron’s tiny 3D MEMS sensor fixes current issues with LiDAR which will benefit applications such as autonomous navigation and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), where precision and faultless operation are critical.
• Optical cross-connect (OXC) for Tensor architectures built with Omnitron’s MEMS-based photonics will be able to deliver improved throughput and reliability in a low-power device, accelerating AI workflow in data centers.

L’ATTITUDE Ventures showcased Omnitron Sensors as one its most promising portfolio companies at the L’ATTITUDE 2024 event. Founded in 2018 by international business executive Sol Trujillo and NAHREP Co-Founder & CEO Gary Acosta, L’ATTITUDE celebrates the remarkable Latinx cohort who are forging the future as part of The New Mainstream Economy.

Omnitron Sensors CEO and Co-founder Eric Aguilar took the mainstage during the panel, The Road to Unicorn Status: A L’ATTITUDE Ventures Spotlight, where he joined two other successful Latinx entrepreneurs, Sandra Lilia Velasquez, CEO & founder of Nopalera, and Alejo Vélez Ramírez, co-founder & co-CEO of Back to the Roots, as well as moderator Sol Trujillo, co-founder of L’ATTITUDE Ventures.

As part of the Spotlight, Eric shared insights into what makes a top-performing portfolio company. In Omnitron’s case, it’s creating a transformative approach to developing and manufacturing MEMS sensors, an advancement that will accelerate the mass production of new smart micro-scale chips that are integral to billions of products.

Humans and MEMS sensors have a lot in common. As humans, we rely on a multitude of biological senses to understand the world. We have eyes to see, ears to hear, and skin to experience touch. In the same way, robots need a multitude of MEMS sensors to navigate their environment effectively. Just as we use our eyes and hands to delicately handle a flower without crushing it, robots need multimode sensing for precise operation. The quality of the sensors themselves is part of the equation; the AI that integrates with the sensors is equally vital.

This brings us to the importance of data. Large volumes of high-quality data allow AI to make accurate predictions and function reliably. Yet this massive influx of data can create serious performance problems (resulting from latency issues) — while simultaneously consuming vast amounts of processing power.

Here’s where Omnitron comes in. Its sensing technology addresses latency and enables real-time AI efficiently and effectively. And soon, Omnitron’s customers will be able to use its first product, the most powerful MEMS mirror on the market, to address the processing-power bottleneck in AI systems. This makes Omnitron’s MEMS mirror the key enabler in allowing AI systems to build more efficient neural networks.

With its prototype MEMS mirror, Omnitron Sensors has already secured interest from major manufacturers and systems integrators in the autonomous vehicles and energy markets, proving the demand for this technology. Omnitron’s mirror also opens new doors to tackling AI challenges, expanding its market potential to the optical cross-connects used to accelerate AI workflow in data centers.

The steadfast support of L’ATTITUDE Ventures has been integral to Omnitron’s growth “Our relationship with L’ATTITUDE Ventures has opened doors to which we wouldn’t have had access otherwise,” said Eric Aguilar. “They recognized Omnitron Sensors as Latino Startup of the Year in 2021, awarding us a $1.6M bridge seed-round investment, and they’ve continued to invest in our business on a variety of levels. We look forward to a future of collaboration.”

About L’ATTITUDE 2024

L’ATTITUDE 2024 is the largest business event in the country focused on The New Mainstream Economy, helping forward-thinking executives and business leaders to understand the US Latino cohort that is driving its growth. Stats from last year’s event showed that the US Latinx cohort is generating $3.2 trillion in GDP, is growing its economic output at a pace that makes it the third fastest-growing economy in the world, and accounts for nearly one-quarter of the United States’ entire GDP growth. Omnitron Sensors is excited to be part of this event, and values L’ATTITUDE’s support and commitment to the company’s vision.
