Oslo, Norway — Elliptic Labs (OSE: ELABS) today announced expanded shipments of its AI Virtual Smart Sensors™ across Lenovo’s Aura Edition portfolio — including multiple premium laptop models and, for the first time, All-in-One (AIO) desktop devices. The new devices were introduced as part of Lenovo’s CES 2026 momentum, where AI experiences took center stage and Lenovo highlighted Smart Share as a core capability in its AI PC lineup.
Powered by Intel chipsets, the launches span both Lenovo’s Commercial and Consumer product lines. The contracts for these launches were previously announced with the Consumer segment in June 2024 and the Commercial segment in July 2024.
For the first time, Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Tap Sensor™ is shipping in Lenovo Aura Edition All-in-One desktop devices, extending software-defined sensing beyond laptops and into stationary PCs.
Lenovo’s Aura Edition AIO lineup includes:
· ThinkCentre X All-in-One (AIO) Aura Edition (Commercial)
· Yoga AIO i Aura Edition (Consumer)
Both AIO devices include Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Tap Sensor™, enabling intuitive tap-based experiences designed to simplify sharing and connectivity.
From Lenovo’s Commercial business line:
· ThinkPad X1 Aura Edition
· ThinkPad X1 2-in-1 Aura Edition
· ThinkPad X9 15p Aura Edition
These devices feature Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Tap Sensor™, enabling a growing set of software-defined, tap-driven experiences — including Lenovo Smart Share capabilities such as Tap-to-Launch and future Tap-to-Pair workflows.
From Lenovo’s Consumer business line:
· Yoga Pro 9i Aura Edition
· Yoga Pro 7i Aura Edition
· Yoga Slim 7i Ultra Aura Edition
These laptops feature both:
· AI Virtual Tap Sensor™
· AI Virtual Human Presence Sensor™
This dual-sensor deployment enables Lenovo to deliver richer context-aware experiences across premium consumer models — blending intuitive tap interactions with privacy- and productivity-enhancing presence awareness.
These Lenovo Aura Edition models represent premium, high-impact segments within Lenovo’s consumer and commercial portfolio, where intelligent collaboration and context-aware AI experiences are increasingly expected as standard.
These devices feature Lenovo’s Smart Share — a hero experience driven by Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Tap Sensor™ and highlighted during Lenovo’s CES 2026 messaging around AI-enabled PCs.
According to Lenovo, the next generation of Smart Share expands collaboration with:
· Tap-to-Launch, now including video sharing
· Instant sharing of full-resolution Live/Motion photos and videos between supported devices
· Planned support for Tap-to-Pair, enabling faster, more seamless Bluetooth® accessory connections in a future update
Together, these tap-driven workflows represent a suite of software-defined sensing experiences that reduce friction and make these AI-enabled PCs more intuitive to use.
“Lenovo’s CES 2026 keynote made it clear that AI is taking center stage in the PC experience,” says Ola Sandstad, CEO of Elliptic Labs. “As AI becomes more personal and more integrated into everyday workflows, devices also need richer, real-time understanding of user intent and context. We’re excited to expand Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Tap Sensor across Lenovo’s Aura Edition lineup, including All-in-One desktops – and to see our AI Virtual Human Presence Sensor extend even further across Lenovo’s consumer portfolio. Together, we enable smarter and more intuitive interactions and strengthen privacy-aware behavior through software-defined sensing. This brings premium experiences to more devices without added hardware complexity.”
