Adok Aura is the meeting assistant launched by Adok, a start-up created in April 2016 in Palaiseau. It presents itself as a desktop PC in the form of a tower. It is a mobile computer with an integrated touch screen. It aims to revolutionize company meetings by making them more interactive, more captive, and more productive.
Project Incubation
“When I worked in a data visualization company, I found meeting tools inadequate,” confides The Factory Nouvelle Paul Péretié, co-founder and general manager of the start-up. They were expensive, complicated to use, and often posed technical problems. By founding Adok with two doctors of science, I wanted to create a simpler, more user-friendly and cheaper solution. ”
The start-up, which now has 18 employees, was incubated at X.the project took two and a half years to develop. The result is considered mind-boggling. “We have the most powerful touch projection system in the world,” Péretié says. In the same device, we combine a Windows PC, a Touch projector, and a battery that makes the system mobile. No need to calibrate. You put it on a table, and it works right now. ”

The LED projection engine comes from iView in China. But the image recognition algorithm is developed internally. This is the technological heart of the system. “It guarantees reactivity of 30 milliseconds and a precision of the order of millimeters on a standard projection surface of 1 meter diagonal,” says the
