Foresight Autonomous Holdings Ltd. (Nasdaq and TASE: FRSX) (“Foresight” or the “Company”), an innovator in automotive vision systems, announced today the signing of a paid joint proof of concept (POC) project with a leading American manufacturer of electric vehicles (EVs).
The project consists of the technological evaluation and testing of predefined scenarios. Foresight intends to demonstrate its ability to create 3D stereo perception with software only, using the manufacturer’s existing pair of mono cameras mounted on a large baseline (distance between the cameras).
Foresight’s proprietary ScaleCam™ separated stereo camera solution allows manufacturers to place cameras on a large baseline. This solution increases distance accuracy at long ranges, allows detection of any type of obstacle, and improves the safety and robustness of the manufacturer’s driver assistance system.
“We are delighted to collaborate with a major player from the EV industry who chose to evaluate the potential of our software to improve the company’s existing safety systems using a software-only solution,” said Haim Siboni, CEO of Foresight. “We believe that our cost-effective advanced stereo vision technology may be beneficial to electric vehicle manufacturers as they develop more advanced autonomous capabilities, resulting in better distance accuracy and improved active safety features, contributing to a greener and safer future.”
