Leti recently helped create a demonstrator for a local, on-the-fly speech processing system using a multicore platform similar to those used in today’s tablets. The demonstrator has a 5,000-word vocabulary and can decode speech at speeds that set a new record for embedded applications. Currently, the majority of speech recognition systems use remote servers, which […] >>

Prostate biopsies, which are performed if a cancerous tumor is suspected, could become more accurate and reliable thanks to a new fluorescence imaging technique. Leti researchers partnered with academic scientists and an SME to develop a new fluorescent marker coupled with a combined optical-ultrasound probe. The system renders any tumors visible for priority sampling during […] >>

The LetiDays 2014 conference on “The Internet of Things, from Sensors to Zero Power” will be held at Maison MINATEC on June 25–26. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a crucial research topic for Leti, which is developing technologies for IoT applications—in particular for sensors, low-power systems, and network security. The LetiDays 2014 program will […] >>

A Renault Twizy electric vehicle demonstrator has been on display at the CEA Tech showroom since April. It shows how the car’s smart energy management system—developed jointly by Leti, Liten, and List—works. It also showcases the car’s unique GPS, which combines geographical data (including topographic data) with data on the car’s remaining energy supply. The […] >>

Implementation of the CEA Tech partnership agreement with France’s four Institutes of Technology (Grenoble, Bordeaux, Nancy, and Toulouse) recently got underway, starting with an April tour of the MINATEC showroom for members of the Grenoble Institute of Technology Corporate Relations team and 25 students in their first year at Ense3. The partnership also includes plans […] >>
