Sonair built its 3D ultrasonic sensor with robotic safety in mind

Robotics /

As robots increasingly enter human spaces, robotics companies will need to think about safety differently than they did when robots were largely siloed from their human counterparts.   Sonair thinks its sensors can help robotics companies reach their safety goals — with a solution that is both better and cheaper than popular LIDAR technology.   The Oslo, […]

Sonair takes a cue from dolphins to build autonomous 3D vision sans LIDAR

Enterprise /

Ultrasound is perhaps best known as the technology that enables non-invasive body scans, underwater communication, and to help us park our cars. A young startup called Sonair out of Norway wants to employ it for something else: 3D computer vision used in autonomous hardware applications.  Sonair’s founder and CEO Knut Sandven believes the company’s application
