Nanoveu

What Nanoveu does

Nanoveu Limited (ASX: NVU) is a Perth-headquartered, publicly listed Australian technology company operating three distinct business lines through wholly-owned subsidiaries. Its core semiconductor business, EMASS, designs ultra-low-power Edge AI System-on-Chip (SoC) products based on RISC-V architecture, including the ECS-DoT-22 (22nm) and the next-generation ECS-DoT-16nm (16nm, approaching TSMC fabrication). The chips feature event-driven architecture, dual deep learning accelerators delivering 30 GOps, built-in compression IP, and multimodal sensor fusion (audio, vision, motion), targeting always-on AI inference at sub-1mW power for wearables, hearables, smart devices, industrial IoT, and drones. The EyeFly3D subsidiary sells patented nano-imprinted screen protectors combined with AI-powered 2D-to-3D conversion software enabling glasses-free 3D on mobile devices, while the Nanoshield subsidiary provides hydrophobic protective coatings for large-scale solar installations and antimicrobial applications.

The company generates revenue through direct and channel semiconductor sales to enterprise OEMs in the US, EMEA, and Asia Pacific, complemented by hardware sales of screen protectors and solar coatings. Go-to-market combines direct sales teams, regional sales representatives across North America, and distributors including Atlantik Elektronik (Europe) and Macnica Cytech (China), supported by a core partnership with Arrow Electronics and co-marketing with Semtech, MosChip Technologies, and the EDGE AI Foundation. The company was founded in 2012, completed acquisitions of Embedded AI Systems (February 2025) and EMASS (2024–2025), and is led by Group CEO and founder Alfred Chong, with EMASS semiconductor operations based in Singapore and R&D collaboration with the Centre of Nanoelectronics and Devices at the American University in Cairo.

Core offering

Nanoveu designs and sells ultra-low-power Edge AI system-on-chips (ECS-DoT family) under its EMASS subsidiary for always-on AI inference in wearables, drones, IoT, smart devices, and industrial applications. The company also sells patented EyeFly3D nano-lens screen protectors with AI-powered 2D-to-3D conversion for mobile devices, and Nanoshield hydrophobic and antimicrobial nanocoatings for large-scale solar installations.

Product overview

Nanoveu operates three distinct product lines: (1) Semiconductor/EMASS division offering the ECS-DoT family of ultra-low-power Edge AI system-on-chip products including ECS-DoT-22 (22nm) and ECS-DoT-16nm (16nm), designed for always-on AI inference in wearables, drones, IoT, and smart devices with event-driven architecture enabling sub-1mW operation and multimodal sensor fusion; (2) EyeFly3D providing glasses-free 3D display technology via patented nano-lens screen protectors combined with AI-powered 2D-to-3D conversion software for mobile devices; and (3) Nanoshield protective coatings for solar installations (Solar-S, Solar-S Premium, Marine variants) and antimicrobial applications. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Singapore's One North innovation hub, Nanoveu is listed on the ASX (NVU) and acquired EMASS in 2025 to expand into ultra-low-power semiconductor design for edge AI applications.
