Oslo-based Elliptic Labs is a globally renowned AI Virtual Smart Sensor leader, with sensors already deployed in over 500 million devices worldwide.
The AI software vendor will unveil its latest innovation – the AI Virtual Tap to Pair sensor – at CES 2025, joining other AI companies in taking over the world’s largest tech event.
This innovative, AI-driven technology allows you to connect PC peripherals (like your wireless mouse, keyboard, etc) with a simple tap on your Windows laptop.
Have you ever lost your dongle? Or spent ages clicking around your laptop in a vain attempt to find your Bluetooth settings?
We’ve all been there, but tap-to-pair tech will effectively make the dongle obsolete by automating a seamless Bluetooth connection process. You can quickly link all your devices – your mouse, keyboard, headset, headphones, earbuds, and number pad – by tapping them against your laptop’s side.
How will Tap-to-Pair Tech Transform the Digital Workplace?
CEO Laila Danielsen explains:
We’ve taken the frustration out of pairing devices and replaced it with a seamless, intuitive experience that feels almost like magic. Our software-only AI Virtual Tap-to-Pair Sensor delivers a smarter, faster, and more enjoyable way to connect.
The implications and potential benefits for organisations with work-from-home, hybrid or hot-desk working models are huge. Elliptic’s new technology:
✅ Reduces technical friction during key moments. We’ve all been on a conference call with dodgy headphones that don’t seem to want to connect. Tap-to-pair solves this in seconds rather than minutes.
✅ Allows simple, quick hot-desking. Moving from the bedroom office to the patio, then to the office in the afternoon? Tap-to-pair syncs all your devices at every location almost instantly.
✅ Brings peace-of-mind to end users with enhanced security and optimsed connectivity. The AI technology automatically detects the type of device being paired, ensures a secure pairing process and manages potential interference from other nearby Bluetooth devices. It also optimises the connection based on the device type and use case. Perfect for those coffeeshop mornings!
Tap-to-pair tech isn’t just convenient, it can be transformative. Elliptic Labs’ solutions enhance inclusivity, making it easier for individuals with visual or motor impairments to connect devices effortlessly.
For modern, forward-thinking companies, ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) goals are non-negotiable. Tap-to-pair tech aligns perfectly by cutting down on electronic waste. No more misplaced USB dongles or unnecessary device replacements—just smarter, greener connectivity.
Elliptic Labs’ AI Virtual Tap to Pair sensor shows how AI innovations can make everyday processes simpler, more intuitive, and can help to boost users’ productivity. It demonstrates how companies now use artificial intelligence to simplify – rather than complicate – technology; creating more human-centered and natural interactions.
