Qualcomm Technologies, a subsidiary of Qualcomm, has acquired Augentix, a provider of low-power image signal processors (ISP) and multimedia SoCs.
With this acquisition, Qualcomm Technologies will offer a broader, more configurable portfolio of smart camera solutions ranging from cost-optimized designs to high-performance, enabling solution providers to scale deployments efficiently while maintaining software consistency, unified control and cost efficiency.
Augentix will be integrated into Qualcomm’s hardware ecosystem, the Qualcomm Insight platform.
The integration of Augentix solutions into the Qualcomm Insight platform expands camera choice across deployment zones from low-power sensing devices for low-risk areas to high-performance analytics-first smart cameras for high-security environments, without fragmenting software stacks, development workflows, or analytics capabilities.
Founded in 2014, Augentix specializes in advanced SoC and multimedia signal processing for high-resolution, low-power video applications. Its portfolio powers solutions across professional enterprise surveillance, consumer video technology, and embedded intelligent camera systems.
As part of Qualcomm Technologies, Augentix solutions will become a core offering within the Qualcomm Insight platform enhancing availability, interoperability and support for Indian and global partners, system integrators, and solution providers building scalable smart surveillance and edge AI deployments.
Savi Soin, Sr. Vice President & President, Qualcomm India, said, “As India advances toward its vision of Viksit Bharat 2047, intelligent infrastructure will need to operate securely, autonomously and at scale. Edge AI and advanced video surveillance are becoming essential enablers of operational efficiency, safety and resilience. Bringing Augentix into the Qualcomm ecosystem strengthens our ability to support India’s digital public infrastructure with real-time intelligence, lower power consumption and enhanced privacy. We are excited to welcome the Augentix team as we accelerate the next phase of AI-enabled security innovation.”
Hung-Chi Fan, CEO, Augentix, said, “We are proud of the innovation legacy we’ve built and are excited to join Qualcomm Technologies to shape the next chapter of intelligent video solutions. Our teams share a long-term commitment to designing secure, scalable solutions for real-world surveillance challenges. Joining forces enables us to accelerate product development, expand our footprint in India, and support customers with a broader advanced camera portfolio built for AI-driven insight and impactful deployment at scale.”
Sunita Verma, Group Coordinator, R&D Division, Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) said, “India has a growing need for secure, scalable and trusted IP camera platforms as public and enterprise infrastructure digitizes at speed. Qualcomm’s acquisition of Augentix will provide a competent alternative for the trusted supply chain for the local ecosystem, empower Indian OEMs & ODMs, and enable cost-effective yet high-performance solutions designed for India and beyond.”
