Nivs Audio & Video Technology Co., Ltd

Our products include digital audio systems, televisions, digital video broadcasting (�DVB�) set-top boxes, DVD players, as well as peripheral and accessory products such as remote controls, headphone sets, and portable entertainment devices (MP3/MP4 players). Manufacturing We have a 2.7 million square foot factory, which includes a large-scale, 1.1 million square-foot production area, and more than 1, 400 full-time employees, including approximately 1, 000 employees in production. Our modernized production lines include automated processing equipment and procedures that we can rapidly modify to accommodate new customer requests, designs and specifications. Our use of manual labor during the production process benefits from the availability of relatively low-cost, skilled labor in China. Research and Development NIVS PRC has worked with Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, or IACAS, since October 2006 to better understand and develop speech interaction technology. IACAS is an organization that specializes in the research and development of smart robot and speech interactive technology. We have focused our efforts to resolve issues caused by speaker-independent speech, the large number of words, and continuous speech identification. We have and continue to develop key technologies, including combined modeling for intonation and vowel variation, large speech database management, and system searching. Quality Control We have stringent quality control systems that are implemented by company-trained staff members to ensure quality control over each phase of the production process, from the purchase of raw materials through each step in the manufacturing process. Supported by advanced equipment, we utilize a scientific management system and precision inspection measurement, capable of ensuring our products are of high quality.
