In recent years, the rapid development of Hangzhou, a new first-tier city, has been evident. The Hangzhou government has strongly supported and guided startup companies. With its technological edge and a robust technical team, uSens Technology has received significant support from the Hangzhou government. As one of the earliest companies in China dedicated to 3D human-computer interaction, uSens has established research and development and operational centers in Silicon Valley, Beijing, Hangzhou, and Shenzhen.
After years of technological accumulation and development, gesture recognition based on artificial intelligence and computer vision, as well as SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping), are the core technologies of uSens. Currently, uSens’ main interactive products include: in-vehicle gesture control, mobile AR engines, gesture technology compatible with iOS and Android, and the 3D gesture interaction module Fingo.
