AI Semi Ltd. to Present at Medtech Insight's ``Investment In Innovation'' EUROPE Conference.


BRUSSELS, Belgium -- AI Semi Ltd. announced that it will be presenting September 20th at 5:05 p.m. at Medtech Insight's "Investment In Innovation (In3) EUROPE: A Preview of Early-Stage Medical Technology Companies" Conference, taking place September 20-21, 2005, at The Crowne Plaza This article or section needs sources or references that appear in reliable, third-party publications. Alone, primary sources and sources affiliated with the subject of this article are not sufficient for an accurate encyclopedia article.  Brussels City Centre Hotel in Brussels.

 and Beyond

AI Semi was founded in November 2003, as part of Yozmot Incubator, Israel Chief Scientist Technological Incubators program. AI Semi develops a system solution for Adaptive Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (aCRT) devices with dynamic optimization of pacing intervals according to hemodynamic he·mo·dy·nam·ics

 sensors, based on the company proprietary neural network processor. AI Semi has developed a novel technology that allows CRT manufacturers to offer patients an auto-programmable and auto-adjustable CRT device. The AI Semi system solution enables the replacement of the manual programming process with an automated optimization process based on a neural network processor. AV delay and V-V interval are changed dynamically through an automated closed-loop optimization process. AI Semi's device learns individual patterns and improves over time to optimize patient's cardiac output cardiac output

 and quality of life.

The neural network processor performs reinforcement learning combined with a pattern recognition scheme performed with extremely low dynamic power dissipation. AI Semi's micro-controller and neural network processor master-slave hybrid architecture is a breakthrough for a life supporting medical device based on neural network technology. An external adaptive CRT prototype is being tested in an acute animal experiment (Q3/Q4 2005).

The company has five pending patents that suggest system solutions also for dual chamber pacemakers, for ventricular pacing during atrial fibrillation atrial fibrillation

Irregular rhythm (arrhythmia) of contraction of the atria (upper heart chambers). The most common major arrhythmia, it may result as a consequence of increased fibrous tissue in the aging heart, of heart disease, or in association with severe infection.
 and for cardiac stimulation with Hemodynamic Guard(TM) (Cardiac stimulation with hemodynamic sensor guard algorithm), which may expand the company's addressable Reachable. When something is addressable, it can be identified and manipulated independently of its surroundings. For example, screen pixels and RAM memory are addressable. Each of the screen's picture elements can be individually turned on and off, and each of the memory's bytes can be  market beyond CRT devices to all implanted pacemakers and defibrillators.

AI Semi's team of management, its board of directors and scientific advisory board includes a seasoned group of experts such as Dr. Rami rami

The Company seeks $1.5 million to complete the development and testing of the external adaptive CRT prototype and to support a joint project with a pacemaker company for developing, testing and manufacturing an implanted adaptive CRT device.
