OMNIVISION clinches accolade at Singapore Business Review Technology Excellence Awards 2026

The OAX4600 delivers AI-enabled in-cabin monitoring for next-generation automotive safety systems.

OMNIVISION won AI - Semiconductor in the Singapore Business Review Technology Excellence Awards 2026 for its OAX4600, the automotive industry's first fully integrated AI-enabled ASIC for simultaneous Driver Monitoring System and Occupant Monitoring System operations.

Designed and built entirely by OMNIVISION's Singapore ASIC team, the OAX4600 combines a sophisticated Image Signal Processor with dual Neural Processing Units, delivering 2 tera operations per second alongside Seeing Machines’ Occula NPU. This dual-NPU architecture enables simultaneous execution of multiple complex AI models whilst maintaining low power consumption, meeting the stringent requirements of automotive-grade in-cabin monitoring applications.

The chip features embedded 2Gb DDR3 memory in a compact form factor, setting new standards for power and space efficiency. Supporting Pytorch, TensorFlow, and ONNX frameworks, OMNIVISION’s in-house AI toolchain includes a compiler, simulator, visualiser, quantisation tools, and a proprietary inference engine. This complete ecosystem allows automotive manufacturers to optimise AI models and deploy them efficiently on the dual-NPU hardware.

OMNIVISION’s OAX4600 entered mass production with multiple automotive manufacturers and is progressing towards additional deployments. Customers report that the solution is highly optimised for in-cabin monitoring, providing the necessary performance and flexibility for next-generation safety systems.

The platform’s comprehensive Software Development Kit allows extensive customisation to meet diverse manufacturer requirements and adapt to evolving safety regulations. By pairing the OAX4600 with OMNIVISION’s leading camera sensors, automotive companies receive a fully integrated imaging and AI solution that strengthens both driver and occupant safety.

SBR Technology Excellence Awards

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
