We would like to thank Origin for sponsoring CONNECTIONS™ 2026 and CONNECTIONS™ Summit at CES 2026!
In 2009, DARPA contracted Dr. Ray Liu, a Distinguished University Professor at the University of Maryland, College Park, to solve a critical communication problem in submarines in which wireless signals were interfering with and canceling each other. After successfully removing the complications causing mixed signals, Dr. Liu was curious to explore applications of this technique to benefit humanity. This led to pioneering AI Sensing — and the birth of Origin.
Harnessing a common commodity — WiFi signals — Dr. Liu and team solved the conundrum of crossed and cancelled signals in an indoor environment and achieved centimeter accuracy. Starting in 2013, the Origin team continued their work to perfect location sensing, and developed a platform of AI analytics engines that use WiFi signals to detect and monitor human motion such as presence, falls, vital signs, sleeping patterns, and more. Launched in 2019, Origin’s first commercial product continues to pave the way for AI Sensing to transform the whole-home environment, from the front door to the back porch.
Origin is revolutionizing what Wi-Fi can do. As the pioneer of Wi-Fi Sensing AI, Origin aims to improve people's lives with its technology. Its patented and award-winning applications enable companies to build a wide range of Wi-Fi smart home, security, ISP applications with high performance, low cost, and ease of use.
