RealSense spins out of Intel to scale its stereoscopic imaging technology

After 14 years of developing in the semiconductor huge Intel, RealSense strikes himself.

Without world The cameras using stereoscopic images are a process that combines two images of the same object, two images of different, creating a depth by developing with infrared light. This technology helps cars like robots, drones and autonomous vehicles. It is also used for both facial identification.

“The total denominator of all is in a real, physical world,” said CEO Nadav Orbach Techcrunch. “They need to understand the rules of actions and planning around the world. For this, they need a real time to understand the surroundings around. This is the best.”

Orbach Intel has reconnected the Israeli CPU architect in 2006. He began to work in 2011 in 2011 and working in 2022 and working on vision technology in 2011 before moving to San Francisco in 2022.

“We knew that 3D perception would be great,” said Orbach said about the first early days. “If I said, we were not fully confident in the domain. We really found our sweet spotes between different market segments and different applications, with phones, phones, mainly in robotics.”

The company works with numerous industries outside robotics. Orbach said they heard fish farms looking to watch the sounds inside the pens. Chipotle also used RealSense camerasAi Restaurant to track a partnership with the program company, when the food containers are low.

RealSense has more than 3,000 customers and saw an increase in the new interest in the last three or four years of AI. Thus, applications for robotics, especially scaled.

The company realized that it would be a chance to continue this requirement – it scales – it scales – he has spread to Intel, lifted his capital, Orbach said.

Spinout plans hit last year and received approval Old Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger. The company is now independent and a number of a number of dollars in a number of $ 50 million to begin itself from Intel capital and other strategic investors.

“For me, to be honest,” said Orbach. “I am the company’s veteran executor, but I was the first time I know, I was on the other side of the table. It was a very knocking experience for me as the General Director and was a very knocking experience.”

RealSense will focus on improving the construction and technology of the team going to the capital. The company is aimed at improving technology to improve security and improving access control during the interaction of people and robots.

“You have a learning curve, you know, you step,” said Orbach. “I am very excited about it. I’m lucky to have a very strong team in my team.
