ITC Info Tech enters into strategic partnership with Chirp
ITC Info Tech has entered into a strategic partnership which will enable the companies to collaboratively develop solutions for clients across the globe.
“At ITC Info tech, we are committed to leveraging technology innovations for our clients. Chirp’s ‘data over sound’ solution lends itself efficiently to industries we work with. This partnership brings in unique synergies, giving us at ITC Info tech an opportunity to offer a significant technology advantage to our clients. With Chirp, we are looking forward to accelerated development of client-specific, industry-specific solutions,” said Sushma Rajagopalan, MD & CEO, ITC Info tech.
Transferring data over sound takes advantage of speaker and microphone-equipped devices of any kind, by using these devices as audio encoders and decoders. Any device embedded with the “data over sound” technology can “hear” and “share” the data. The key advantage of this technology is the ability to broadcast small amounts of digital data to multiple devices without the need for pairing the devices or knowing the device ID of receiving devices. The technology also works without the necessity of any other form of connectivity, such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, allowing “networking” of multiple platforms and devices to be done offline in some cases.
Chirp has developed fully interoperable software development kits (SDKs) of their technology on a wide range of platforms (such as iOS, Android, JavaScript, Python and Linux, as well as numerous chipsets such as the full range of ARM Cortex MCUs) with which ITC Info Tech will be building further solutions. These solutions will be specifically developed for clients in industries including Banking, Financial Services & Insurance (BFSI), Consumer Packaged Goods, Manufacturing, Automotive, Retail, Airlines and Hospitality. Chirp’s technology has already been deployed globally on a mass scale, with hundreds of millions of devices currently connecting and transmitting data with this technology.
Commenting on the partnership, Moran Lerner, Chief Executive Officer, Chirp, said, “At Chirp, we believe sound and data should be used together to share things. With our partnership with ITC Info Tech, we are now looking forward to bringing the Internet of Sound to clients globally at a more rapid scale. The time and resources that ITC Info Tech will be investing to integrate Chirp into their suite of services, and those of their clients’, means we now have the scale to deliver Chirp’s unique capabilities to the leading businesses across multiple sectors and ultimately those businesses’ global consumers.”
