The two companies presented a joint solution at COMPUTEX 2025 in Taipei, showcasing a turnkey platform that paired Living Optics’ video-rate hyperspectral camera with AVerMedia’s industrial-grade edge computer, D315AOB (5G), powered by NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin. The live demo showed how hyperspectral data can be captured, processed, and analyzed on-device to identify materials by their spectral signatures, enabling new levels of precision in quality control, environmental sensing, agriculture, and medical diagnostics.
“This partnership is about moving our hyperspectral technology out of the lab and into the real world,” said Dr. Steve Chappell, Co-founder and CTO at Living Optics. “AVerMedia’s edge computing platforms offer the reliability and industrial design our customers need, while their global distribution network helps us scale faster. Together, we’re making it dramatically easier for customers to adopt next-generation vision solutions.”
Headquartered in Taiwan, AVerMedia is a globally recognized application-ready turnkey solutions provider specializing in embedded AI platforms and edge video technologies. With decades of experience in high-performance computing and AI deployment, AVerMedia excels at integrating advanced vision technologies into rugged, deployable form factors designed for real-world applications.
“We’re proud to collaborate with Living Optics to deliver a solution that redefines machine vision at the edge,” said Alex Liu, Vice President of Industrial Product Division at AVerMedia. “By combining their powerful hyperspectral imaging with our Jetson-based edge systems, we’re enabling customers to detect, analyze, and act on material differences in real time. This opens up exciting new possibilities across industries that demand accuracy, speed, and intelligence on-site.”
The collaboration reflects both companies’ shared commitment to innovation and customer enablement. Living Optics’ hyperspectral camera is now available in a co-developed developer kit designed for the AVerMedia platform, simplifying setup for developers and integrators alike.
For end customers, this partnership means faster time to value with less technical complexity. Instead of piecing together separate imaging and computing components, they now have access to a complete, validated system that works out of the box. The bundled solution is built to withstand demanding real-world environments, offering industrial-grade reliability along with cutting-edge performance. Whether customers are system integrators building custom platforms or enterprises looking for ready-to-deploy tools, the joint offering delivers a streamlined path to smarter, more actionable insights at the edge.
By eliminating the complexity of sourcing and integrating separate imaging and computing components, the collaboration lets customers extract actionable insights from the spectral composition of materials, in real time and at the edge.
