Oslo, Norway — In the race to roll out modern, feature-rich smartphones, China's giant Xiaomi has once again utilized Virtual Smart Sensors™ of Elliptic Labs to help Xiaomi deliver innovative smartphones, as seen in its new Redmi K30 Pro smartphone. Elliptic Labs today announced that this new mid-range phone from Xiaomi's Redmi line utilizes the INNER BEAUTY® AI Virtual Proximity Sensor™, helping the Redmi K30 Pro show off a sleek, new design. Elliptic Labs had announced a contract win for this design win previously and is making details available today.
The world's fourth largest smartphone manufacturer, Xiaomi has been partnering with Elliptic Labs since 2016 when the Elliptic technology helped Xiaomi's Mi Mix phone revolutionize the industry with its bezel-less design. Since then, INNER BEAUTY has been built into many Xiaomi phones. Eliminating a phone's traditional, hardware-based infra-red proximity sensor and replacing it with INNER BEAUTY's virtual sensor opened up a new era in phone design because replacing hardware and reusing a smartphone's existing speakers and microphones for proximity detection eliminate the need for thick bezels and holes on the front screen.
"With software replacing hardware sensors for proximity sensing, INNER BEAUTY, enabling a cleaner smartphone design, while reducing costs," explained Laila Danielsen, CEO of Elliptic Labs.
