Elliptic Labs Shipping with Xiaomi on Civi 5 Pro Smartphone

May 30, 2025

Oslo, Norway — Elliptic Labs (OSE: ELABS), a global AI software company and the world leader in AI Virtual Smart Sensors™ currently deployed in over half a billion devices, is launching its AI Virtual Proximity Sensor™ INNER BEAUTY® on Xiaomi’s Civi 5 Pro smartphone for the Chinese market. The Civi 5 Pro uses Elliptic Labs’ partner Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset. Elliptic Labs signed the contract for this launch in March 2024. 
 
“Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Smart Sensor Platform™ has now shipped on five Xiaomi smartphones in 2025 with the launch of the Civi 5 Pro model,” said Laila Danielsen, CEO of Elliptic Labs. “We continue our solid progress with our smartphone business, having now shipped 24 smartphone models thus far in 2025. Our partnership with Xiaomi, now nine years old, is as strong as ever, and we look forward to building devices with Xiaomi that are greener, smarter, and more user-friendly.” 

AI Virtual Proximity Sensor INNER BEAUTY
Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Proximity Sensor detects when a user holds their phone up to their ear during a call, allowing the smartphone to turn off its display and disable its screen’s touch functionality. This keeps the user’s ear or cheek from triggering unwanted actions during the call, such as hanging up or dialing numbers. Turning off the screen also helps conserve battery life.

Proximity detection is a core capability that is used in all smartphones, but Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Proximity Sensor is a unique, software-only solution that delivers robust proximity detection without the need for a dedicated hardware sensor. By replacing hardware sensors with software sensors, the AI Virtual Proximity Sensor reduces device cost and eliminates sourcing risk.
