Our take
Autonomous vehicles are fast making the leap from science fiction to reality. However, there are huge safety implications that need to be addressed. Parallel Domain has developed software for training autonomous vehicles in a virtual setting, reducing the risks associated with real-world testing and giving vehicle manufacturers the ability to identify problems and put them right, before the vehicle ever hits the road.
Founded in 2017, Parallel Domain leverages synthetic data to train and test the vision and perception systems for AVs. Clients can customise training environments with parameters such as weather, lighting, and distribution of agents, allowing them to model specific situations, including rare ones that would be unlikely to occur in real-world training. This results in AIs that behave better and more safely in novel situations.
Parallel Domain has seen significant investment that will fuel operational expansion and increase business reach. With the value of synthetic data quickly becoming apparent, the company is positioned well to benefit from those wishing to train their autonomous vehicle AIs faster and more efficiently.
