New Delhi-headquartered Cube26, which claims to be India's leading technology firm, has been making devices smarter through its software expertise since its inception. Popularly known for its customized Android experience and Gesture technology like "Blink to capture" and "Look away to pause" for Panasonic and Micromax respectively, Cube26 software resides on more than 5 million devices, which is just 4 per cent of the total mobile users in India.

Cube26, a Silicon Valley startup founded by Saurav Kumar and Abhilekh Agrawal in 2012, has developed the next generation of technology that allows devices to recognize users, interpret human gestures and understand their emotions.

Sensing the opportunity, Cube26 decided to shift its base in India in 2013 to focus on Indian mobile ecosystem. Formerly known as PredictGaze, the company is working towards revolutionizing the device experience for users across platforms.

In a candid chat with Kumar, during Entrepreneur India 2016 show, he reveals more about Cube26, its future growth, expansion plans and opportunities in IOT space.
