Key Points:
- Starting as a university spinoff, Odin Vision has rapidly grown and was acquired by Olympus, a global leader in medtech, particularly in gastrointestinal endoscopic equipment.
- Odin Vision, an alum of the NVIDIA Inception program, develops cloud-connected AI software to assist clinicians in detecting and characterizing areas of concern during endoscopy procedures.
- The software captures real-time video data during endoscopy, which is processed by powerful NVIDIA GPUs in the cloud. The AI-generated insights are then streamed back to the endoscopy room with minimal latency.
- The acquisition by Olympus is seen as a significant step towards revolutionizing endoscopy with AI and cloud technology, allowing Odin Vision’s software to reach a global customer base.
