Elliptic Labs has launched its AI Virtual Proximity Sensor INNER BEAUTY on Transsion's Infinix GT 20 Pro smartphone. Transsion, the fourth largest smartphone maker globally, is releasing the Infinix GT 20 Pro smartphones for the global market. The Infinix GT 20 Pro is driven by Elliptic Labs' partner MediaTek'sDimensity 8200 Ultimate chipset.

Elliptic Labs previously announced the contract for this launch in October 2023. Elliptic Labs' AI Virtual Proximity Sensor INNER BEAUTY 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.

Turn 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.
