Advancing the possibilities of 
automated driving

By combining advanced AI and real-time positioning with a scalable and open architecture, we’re enabling vehicles to navigate, communicate, and respond intelligently to dynamic conditions.

ADAS/AD built from collaboration

We don’t just build automated driving systems for our partners. We collaborate with them over the entire life cycle of the product, from conception to development to commercialization and continuous integration. The result is ADAS/AD that learns on the fly, improves in real-time, and gets drivers to their destination.

Incorporating context with AI

The best ADAS/AD solutions are holistic. By utilizing information from different types of inputs (like the connected world, devices, and sensors in and out of the vehicle), we’re enabling compound AI systems that personalize and contextualize the driving experience.

Improving safety through positioning

We equip our AD platforms with real-time perception, V2X communication, and vision-enhanced precise positioning (VEPP) technologies. This enables vehicles to detect obstacles, avoid collisions, and respond instantly to traffic conditions with lane-level accuracy.

Protecting your data

Our ADAS/AD platforms prioritize security through encrypted communication, secure data handling, and robust threat detection. We employ a multi-layered security architecture that includes hardware-based isolation, encryption, and regular software updates to mitigate risks and enhance system integrity.
