About AlpsenTek
AlpsenTek is a developer of Hybrid Vision Sensing (HVS) technology headquartered in Shenzhen, China. HVS technology combines conventional image capture and event-based perception at pixel level in a single chip: each pixel delivers both image and event signals that are spatio-temporally aligned. The DIFFSYNC readout architecture enables flexible switching between image, event and fusion modes at high frame rates, low latency, low data redundancy and high dynamic range. The interfaces are compatible with common SoCs, ISPs and vision algorithm stacks. The product portfolio includes the APX sensor family (including APX002, APX003, APX004, APX014), vision modules, development kits and algorithm systems for applications such as image and video enhancement, edge AI perception and AI motion analysis. Customer industries include smartphones, consumer electronics, AIoT, smart security, automotive, robotics, XR devices and endoscopy. In addition to Shenzhen, the company maintains locations in Zurich, Beijing, Nanjing and Shanghai.
