company’s digital signage offerings go beyond just providing compelling displays for marketing purposes. CognoVision’s computer vision technology provides customers with analytics and intelligence around customer interaction with displays, including data on the number of people who look at displays; how long people look for; the number of people who walk by; how long people stay near displays; and anonymous semographics of the display’s audience (gender and age bracket).

Intel and CognoVision actually have an existing relationship. Cognovision has partnered with Intel to show how processors are used in Digital Signage applications.

If Intel did pay $17 million for CognoVision, that price is a drop in the bucket for the company. Intel recently acquired smartphone chipmaker Infineon for $1.4 billion and McAfee for nearly $8 billion.
