Orthogonal Integrated ΣΔ CDMAX

Tensor-ΣΔ: A Two-Stage Hierarchical Code Architecture

Our patents pending Tensor-ΣΔ with integrated CDMAX (CDMA Extended, Pronounced CD-MAX) in the CogniSense architecture marks a pivotal advancement in sensor data handling, enabling simultaneous multi-channel acquisition without the latency or bandwidth constraints of traditional polling methods. By leveraging code division multiplexing inside the analog front end, CogniSense can capture high-resolution signals from hundreds of sensor nodes concurrently, each encoded with a unique signature, allowing for real-time fusion of spatial, temporal, and pressure data.

CDMAX-Integrated ΣΔ Sensing

This unlocks a new class of intelligent HMI interfaces where WHO, WHAT, and HOW are sensed in parallel, dramatically improving responsiveness, contextual awareness, and AI inference accuracy at the edge. CDMAX transforms the sensing substrate into a high-bandwidth, low-power data fabric – ideal for large-format displays, multi-user environments, and biometric-rich applications

CDMA Extended (CDMAX) – CDMA Integrated ΣΔ Sensing (61+ Patents Pending)

“Today’s typical touch controllers scan electrodes one at a time… degrading signal quality.”

Embedding the CDMA inside the sigma‑delta loop provides analog‑level interference suppression, simultaneous multi‑channel operation, and eliminates the frame‑rate vs. electrode‑count tradeoff.

CDMA gives each sensor channel a unique orthogonal code, so the system separates signals mathematically rather than by time slots or frequency slices.

“Our architecture extracts rich diagnostic information from the two‑stage correlation process… that no single‑stage controller can access.”

This enables auto‑configuration, self‑healing, predictive diagnostics, and dramatically reduces engineering effort and field failures.

“Water rejection… is a critical unsolved problem for outdoor and automotive touchscreens.”

Code‑domain signatures, hybrid CDMAX/TDMA switching, and multi‑layer feature extraction enable pen classification, high‑bandwidth sensing, and robust water rejection beyond what scanning architectures can achieve.

“By shaping the spreading code’s spectrum to avoid interference frequencies before correlation, we prevent interference energy from ever entering the signal processing chain.”

This provides active, targeted EMI rejection, per‑channel adaptation, and stable operation in environments where conventional controllers fail.

“By reusing codes across non‑adjacent regions, we maintain full frame rate regardless of user count.”

Spatial segmentation and predictive code allocation create a virtual code space, enabling true multi‑user interaction, low‑latency stylus performance, and robust palm rejection.

“Our architecture provides security as an inherent property of the sensing waveform.”

Multi‑layer physical, cryptographic, and waveform‑level protections create hardware‑native security, anti‑spoofing, and unclonable authentication without external modules.

“No other touch controller architecture can provide this level of diagnostic specificity because they lack the multi‑layer metrics.”

Cross‑layer diagnostics, self‑supervised labeling, and embedded health scoring enable predictive maintenance, fleet learning, and remote fault identification.

Massive Performance Gap

Signal Intelligence Starts at the Edge

Our platform is engineered for AI‑native sensing, delivering higher‑fidelity inputs, greater compute efficiency, and a fully programmable pipeline that scales with modern ML workloads.

Direct, High‑Resolution Sensor Access

We bypass fixed‑function IC preprocessing and expose full‑bandwidth analog and digital streams directly to host compute. AI models receive richer spatial, temporal, and spectral detail, enabling higher‑accuracy inference and more robust generalization.

Compute Optimized for Tensor Workloads

Inference runs on CPU/GPU/NPU subsystems designed for modern ML operations—not on constrained microcontrollers. This supports larger model architectures, higher frame‑rate processing, multi‑modal fusion, and real‑time model adaptation without hardware changes.

Hardware‑Agnostic, Model‑Centric Architecture

The platform decouples sensing intelligence from fixed silicon, enabling AI models to run consistently across diverse processors, sensor configurations, and system topologies. This abstraction layer ensures portability, rapid iteration, and uniform performance without hardware‑specific rewrites.

Software‑Defined, OTA‑Upgradable Pipeline

A fully programmable sensing stack enables dynamic model updates, adaptive filtering, and OTA‑deployed inference graphs. Performance evolves continuously, independent of silicon revision cycles.

Deterministic, Low‑Latency Execution

Unified edge‑side inference and action execution deliver predictable timing for sub‑millisecond control loops, on‑device autonomy, and cloud‑assisted coordination when global context is required.

Compounding Multi‑Modal Data Advantage

Each deployment contributes high‑fidelity sensor traces to a shared corpus, accelerating pretraining, domain adaptation, and model refinement creating a durable, defensible data moat.

Our Inherent Self-Healing Benefits

Our system runs a continuous self-diagnostic loop that monitors signal integrity and sensor health in real time. It begins by measuring SNR, orthogonality, and other performance indicators, then classifies deviations to identify the precise root cause of degradation. Based on that classification, the system adapts its operating parameters—automatically adjusting amplitudes and signal paths to maintain optimal performance. Each cycle reinforces the onboard model, enabling continuous learning and improved classifier accuracy. Telemetry is reported upstream for fleet‑level visibility, closing the loop and restarting the measurement phase.

This closed-loop process enables true predictive maintenance: the system detects electrode or sensor degradation weeks before failure, allowing maintenance to be scheduled proactively rather than reactively.

The 5 Distinct CogniSense Tensor‑ΣΔ Capabilities

CogniSense’s Tensor‑ΣΔ capabilities turn each of these five functions into transportation‑grade advantages. Pre‑digitization immunity gives vehicles a cleaner, more reliable view of the analog world before noise ever reaches the ADC, which is essential for EV power networks, braking systems, steering actuators, and any domain where signal corruption can’t be tolerated. Impulse blanking and full‑duplex communication further strengthen this foundation by ensuring uninterrupted, high‑integrity data flow across long harnesses, shared power lines, and electrically noisy environments common in buses, trucks, rail, and aviation.

The diagnostic and security elements, continuous wiring‑integrity monitoring and physical‑layer fingerprinting, directly elevate transportation safety. NP8‑style zero‑cost diagnostics transform every cable run into a real‑time health sensor, enabling predictive maintenance for fleets and preventing arc‑fault‑driven fires. NP12‑level authentication ensures that every module, sensor, and subsystem is verifiably genuine, blocking counterfeit or tampered components at the physical layer. Together, these capabilities position CogniSense as a foundational technology for next‑generation transportation systems that demand reliability, resilience, and trust built directly into the wiring itself.
