Compound Eye is a software development company based in Palo Alto, California, focused on machine perception. It develops technology that lets machines interpret their surroundings in three dimensions and in real time using passive sensors such as cameras, delivering more environmental detail at a fraction of the cost of active sensing technologies like lidar. A recent development is the VIDAS development kit, a tool for automakers and suppliers to evaluate the system’s lidar-like perception capabilities more affordably. The work targets the automotive and robotics sectors, with a mission to extend enhanced sensing to existing vehicles and enable mass production of autonomous cars and other robots. The company operates with a small to mid-sized team and sits in the software-focused segment of the automotive sensor market.
