The world’s fourth largest smartphone manufacturer, Xiaomi has been partnering with Elliptic Labs since 2016 when the Elliptic technology helped Xiaomi's Mi Mix phone revolutionize the industry with its bezel-less design. Since then, INNER BEAUTY has been built into many Xiaomi phones. Eliminating a phone's traditional, hardware-based infrared proximity sensor and replacing it with INNER BEAUTY's virtual sensor opened up a new era in phone design by replacing hardware and reusing a smartphone's existing speakers and microphones for proximity detection, eliminating the need for thick bezels and holes on the front screen.
"With software replacing hardware sensors for proximity sensing, INNER BEAUTY enables a cleaner smartphone design, while reducing costs," explained Laila Danielsen, CEO of Elliptic Labs.
