dorsaVi acquires global licence for innovative memory tech to power next-gen wearables

dorsaVi (ASX: DVL) has secured an exclusive worldwide licence to a cutting-edge resistive random-access memory (RRAM) technology developed by Nanyang Technological University in Singapore.

The proposed licence gives the company access to nine patent and intellectual property invention families encompassing advanced RRAM technologies developed by Professor Lew Wen Siang and his team at the university’s School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences.

dorsaVi plans to integrate the technologies – which have broad applications across AI, robotics and wearable health tech, spatial computing (augmented, virtual and extended reality) and the Internet of Things (IoT) – into the company’s movement tracking platform.

Movement analysis

dorsaVi is a global leader in the field of human movement analysis technology for use in clinical applications, elite sports and occupational health and safety using wearable sensors.

The company has built non-intrusive, AI-powered, high-precision movement tracking capabilities within its ViMove platform.

The technology accurately captures, quantifies and assesses many aspects of detailed human movement and position outside of a biomechanics lab.

Ultra-fast technology

RRAM technology has the ability to deliver ultra-fast read/write operations while consuming minimal power, making it suitable for latency-sensitive, energy-constrained environments.

Its non-volatile characteristics ensure robust data retention without continuous power supply and its high endurance, scalability and resilience make it ideal for wearables, IoT sensors and mission-critical edge computing nodes.

dorsaVi believes integrating RRAM into its wearable movement tracking platform will make it a more efficient system and support the company’s mission to deliver smarter and faster sensors at lower costs with higher margins.

Used in tandem with legacy NAND flash for mass data storage, it can allow for a low-latency hybrid system with extended battery life and prolonged device lifespan.

Next-gen platforms

dorsaVi chief executive officer Andrew Ronchi said the licensing agreement would give the company a foundation to build the next generation of intelligent, low-power sensing platforms.

“We are not just upgrading our products—we are redefining what is possible with wearable sensors,” he said.

dorsaVi has launched a $2.43 million two-tranche placement to advance the RRAM integration and support ongoing working capital requirements.

The company will issue a total of 187.5 million shares at $0.013 each, representing an 18.75% discount to its last traded price and a 4.02% discount to the 15-day volume-weighted average price.
