ADASKY Awarded Strategic Contract with Autonomous Electric Vehicle OEM
The thermal camera developer will manufacture its state-of-the-art sensing technology for an EV automaker's Level 4 autonomous vehicle
- ADASKY tech detects pedestrians and other vulnerable road users under low visibility conditions filling the perception gaps in existing sensor suites
- Viper, ADASKY's advanced thermal camera system, will be added by an electric vehicle automaker into their autonomous vehicle sensor suite helping to enable Level 4 automation
YOKNE'AM, Israel, March 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- ADASKY, a leading developer and manufacturer of state-of-the-art thermal sensing technology for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), autonomous vehicles (AV) and smart city applications, won a strategic contract to supply its thermal cameras for an autonomous vehicle.
ADASKY's Viper thermal camera is a leading high-resolution, thermal perception system with the capability to fill the perception gaps not covered sufficiently by other technologies. The Viper sensor can recognize pedestrians at distances greater than 200 meters – over twice the range of low-beam headlights. Powered by cutting-edge algorithms, the Viper sensor can see and classify vulnerable road users, such as pedestrians and cyclists, as well as animals and inanimate obstacles at distances far beyond high-beam headlights.
Unlike other sensors limited by so-called "edge" cases including complete darkness, heavy rain, blinding sunlight, headlight glare and dense fog, ADASKY's technology works in all weather conditions.
"Thermal sensing is a key component for robust ADAS and AV solutions for all-around roadway safety and optimal vehicle automation, and we are thrilled to see our Viper sensor in production with a forward-looking and innovative OEM," said Yakov Shaharabani, ADASKY CEO.
