Foresight Autonomous Holdings Ltd. (Nasdaq and TASE: FRSX) (“Foresight” or the “Company”), an innovator in automotive vision systems, announced today the signing of a joint proof of concept (POC) project with the American division of a leading Japanese Tier One supplier for the automotive industry. This project follows a successful evaluation of the QuadSight® vision system prototype reported by the Company on March 19, 2021.
The project consists of technological evaluation and testing of predefined simulated and real-life scenarios. Foresight intends to demonstrate its ability to create a stereo pair using the leading Tier One supplier’s existing camera hardware in order to generate rich perception based on enhanced 3D depth map, accurate distance measurement and object detection, thereby leveraging Foresight’s stereoscopic technology to enhance the leading Tier One supplier’s existing system.
Foresight’s proprietary Mono2Stereo™ software-based solution uses the overlapping fields of view of existing mono cameras to create a 3D perception stereo vision system and improve the overall probability of detection.
“We are excited to see increased interest in our unique technology from the automotive industry, as more companies that have evaluated our QuadSight prototype system choose to proceed to POC projects with us. We believe that having been chosen by a leading Tier One supplier of automotive stereo vision systems validates the added value of our stereoscopic technology to enhance existing advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and amplify their performance, resulting in better distance accuracy and more robust active safety features,” said Haim Siboni, CEO of Foresight. “Our solution can be readily deployed in vehicles equipped with Level 2 and Level 2 plus autonomy systems, without requiring additional hardware and design changes. We believe that teaming up with the leading Tier One supplier may potentially lead to further collaborations with vehicle manufacturers worldwide.”
