Paving the road for a safer
Our Vision
We are creating a next-generation AI Software Platform for Radars that is exponentially higher resolution, longer range, more accurate, and less expensive than conventional solutions - increasing safety, reliability, and robustness. The promise of self driving vehicles and autonomous robotics depend on high performance, all weather, low cost and scalable perception technology, and Oculii is bringing it to the world.
