EU Horizon 2020 Fund Toposens for autonomous driving Tech
Our portfolio company TOPOSENS has received €2.5M from the European Union Horizon 2020 Programme.
Toposens develops 3D ultrasound sensors for autonomous vehicles and devices, such as robots and drones. Autonomous vehicles and devices need to ‘feel’ their environment to be truly autonomous. Current radars and sensors generate huge amount of data and have limited effectiveness in many typical environments and situations. They are also expensive and less precise.
While existing sensors can be negatively impacted by light conditions, reflections and weather, Toposens created a solution generating real-time 3D data to guide autonomous systems, even in the most difficult environments. Toposens sensor technology uses ultrasound enabling 3D mapping and object recognition software. With Toposens sensors autonomous vehicles and robots will be able to interact with their near-field surroundings.
