Underscoring this commitment, FieldAI has procured MicroVision MOVIA sensors for ongoing development and evaluation. Noting the synergy, Glen DeVos, CEO of MicroVision, highlighted: “FieldAI is pioneering autonomous systems designed for some of the most demanding operational environments, and we’re excited to continue expanding our collaboration across both their Federal and Industrial organizations”. From the robotics side, Shehryar Khattak, Director of Technology at FieldAI, emphasized: “The performance and versatility of MicroVision’s sensing technologies have made them an important collaborator as we continue advancing autonomous capabilities across our platform portfolio”. FieldAI and Micro Vision are successfully working toward seamlessly integrating the High-precision, Long-range, and Short-range perception stack from Micro Vision to FieldAI’s frontier autonomy software. This combined solution will enable companies and defense customers to meet increasing enterprise and defense requirements for robust navigation, obstacle detection, and real-time mapping of large unstructured terrains.
