AdaSky

The race towards the first fully-autonomous vehicle has begun. To achieve 24/7 autonomous driving, vehicles first need to be able to see and understand the roads and their surroundings, with complete accuracy, in all weather and lighting conditions. This is where we come in. Leveraging years of experience in developing thermal cameras for civil and military uses, AdaSky has developed a state-of-the-art sensing solution that consists of a Far-Infrared Thermal camera, combined with AdaSky’s computer vision algorithms and engineered specifically for autonomous vehicle systems.

We have engineered a breakthrough sensing and perception solution that allows autonomous vehicles to reliably detect, segment, and analyze pedestrians, animals, objects, and road conditions in day or night, regardless of weather condition.

AdaSky’s founding team is made up of veterans from the semiconductor, thermal sensor, image processing and computer vision market. They have been developing state-of-the-art FIR sensing solutions for the last decade. Now, the company’s multidisciplinary team of experienced engineers has further innovated and adapted the solution to the specific needs of self-driving cars, making AdaSky’s solution a critical addition to cars to eliminate vision and perception weaknesses for fully-autonomous vehicles.
