ARIA SENSING and ALGORIZED announced a strategic collaboration that redefines what Ultra-Wideband technology can achieve. By combining the world’s first true 3D UWB radar System-on-Chip with Algorized’s Edge-Native Nervous System, the companies introduce the most powerful AI-based UWB sensing platform available, starting with a next-generation Automotive Child Presence Detection (CPD) system unveiled at Mobile World Congress 2026.
While most UWB chips on the market were originally designed for secure ranging, ARIA SENSING’s HYDROGEN 4×4 UWB Radar SoC was engineered from the ground up for radar performance.
“Traditional UWB solutions were never optimized for high-resolution radar sensing,” said Alessio Ciaccatori, CEO of ARIA SENSING. “Hydrogen changes the paradigm. Combined with ALGORIZED’s real-time edge-AI engine, we are delivering a sensing platform that dramatically outperforms conventional UWB and mmWave solutions in sensitivity, angular resolution, power efficiency, and real-world robustness.”
The First True 3D UWB Radar SoC — Now AI-Enhanced
At the core of the breakthrough is Hydrogen, the world’s first UWB radar SoC featuring:
- True 3D detection
- Integrated digital beamforming (~5° angular resolution)
- Up to 1.8 GHz programmable bandwidth
- Ultra-low power radar architecture
The result: high-resolution in-cabin sensing capable of detecting micro-motions, respiratory activity, precise occupancy mapping, behavioral patterns and more — dramatically reduced latency, and at a fraction of the power consumption and cost of legacy radar architectures.
When powered by ALGORIZED’s embedded edge AI foundation model, the platform delivers:
- AI-powered people counting and tracking
- Micro-motion and baby monitoring
- Behavioral pattern recognition
- Secure positioning and classification
All running directly on a compact, scalable hardware platform ready for mass deployment.
First Application: Next-Generation Child Presence Detection
The collaboration debuts with an advanced Automotive Child Presence Detection (CPD) in-cabin solution, designed for OEM and Tier-1 integration and aligned with emerging global safety regulations.
Beyond Automotive: A New Standard for Human-Centric Radar
The joint platform extends far beyond CPD. ARIA SENSING and ALGORIZED are enabling a new class of intelligent sensing devices for:
- Smart buildings
- Consumer electronics
- HVAC and appliances
- Industrial safety systems
- Elderly monitoring
From ceiling-mounted building sensors to embedded smart devices, the companies provide turnkey demonstrators and a fully integrated IC + AI software stack designed for rapid scaling into high-volume production.
“ARIA Sensing’s mission is to provide world’s best UWB single-chip radar devices,” said Alessio Cacciatori, CEO of ARIA Sensing. “Joining advanced Edge-AI features extraction with low-power, high-resolution single-chip radar devices truly enables a paradigm shift in how appliances, home, cars, and robots interact with persons.”
“ALGORIZED’s mission is to give machines human-level environmental awareness,” said Natalya Lopareva, CEO of ALGORIZED. “By combining AI with a purpose-built 3D UWB radar architecture, we are unlocking capabilities that were simply not possible with legacy silicon.”
