CogniVue acquired by American semiconductor firm

A Texas-based semiconductor company announced Thursday it has acquired Gatineau’s CogniVue Corporation.

Freescale Semiconductor was already using CogniVue’s vision processing IP in many of its products.

It said bringing CogniVue’s vision IP development capabilities and R&D resources in-house will bring more automotive innovation to vehicle manufacturers, get products to market faster and ultimately fuel its continuing growth.

Financial terms of the deal were not released.
