Intrinsyc Technologies Introduces Next Generation System on Module based on Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 Processor

VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - December 30, 2016) - Intrinsyc Technologies Corporation (TSX: ITC) (OTC: ISYRF) ("Intrinsyc" or the "Company"), a leading provider of solutions for the development and production of embedded and Internet of Things (IoT) products, today announced the introduction of the Company's next generation Open‐Q™ 820 µSOM (micro) (system on module) and its companion Open‐Q™ 820 µSOM Development Kit. Intrinsyc's 820 µSOM is an ultra-small form-factor commercially available SOM based on the 64-bit Qualcomm^® Snapdragon™ 820 processor, a product of Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of Qualcomm Incorporated. It is the Company's second offering featuring the Snapdragon 820 processor and utilizes technology in the currently shipping Open-Q™ 820 SOM, while shrinking the form factor from 82mm x 42mm to 50mm x 25mm -- a 63% reduction in size. Powerful, miniature, and cost effective, the Open-Q™ 820 µSOM is designed to enable the rapid commercial production of a variety of IoT products, such as robotics, cameras, set-top-boxes, medical devices, augmented and immersive virtual reality, digital signage, and advanced 4K HEVC video conferencing.

The Snapdragon™ 820 processor includes the following features:

• Qualcomm® Kryo™ CPU: Designed to deliver maximum performance and low power consumption, Kryo is Qualcomm Technologies' first custom 64-bit quad-core CPU, manufactured in advanced 14nm FinFET LPP process
• Qualcomm® Adreno™ 530 GPU: Up to 40% better graphics and compute performance for improved visual fidelity while reducing power consumption than previous generations
• Qualcomm Spectra™ 14-bit dual image signal processors (ISPs) engineered to deliver high resolution DSLR-quality images using heterogeneous compute for advanced processing and additional power savings, supports up to 25MP sensors with zero shutter lag
• Qualcomm® Hexagon™ 680 DSP includes Hexagon Vector eXtensions (HVX) and Sensor Core with Low Power Island for always-on sensor processing
