Their mission is to make autonomous driving as safe as possible.
As interest in autonomous driving continues to grow, so too do concerns over its safety. AEye solves this problem by leveraging AI technology to ensure atonomous driving is as safe as possible.
AEye was founded by a former NASA and Lockheed Martin engineer who has extensive experience in sensor and guidance technology. The company aims to bring military-grade sensory technology to the autonomous driving market.
In 2021, AEye went public via a SPAC, with a valuation of $2 billion. The company faces stiff competition, as they are just one of a raft of new LIDAR startups in the market. AEye will need to diversify the applications of their technology if they are to continue to compete with companies such as Velodyne and Luminar.
