A Priori Robotics & Artificial Intelligence

I worked at top robotics and autonomous vehicles companies for the ten years and during that time I saw a need for better spatial sensors. LIDAR is just too expensive for mass production and 3D cameras are too unreliable, and actually still to expensive for mass production. We have existence proof in the animals all around us that passive vision is sufficient for high speed robust autonomy, yet we have failed to replicate this ability in robotics and autonomous systems.

I founded A Priori Robotics & Artificial Intelligence in order to create robust passive vision solutions that can imbue robots and autonomous systems with animal level spatial awareness.
