  • Cradar.Ai
    Principal Investigator
    Cradar.Ai 2018 - 2019
    CRadar.Ai is a start-up developing highly accurate signals for radar systems for car drivers. The company's technology exploits electromagnetic information statistically independent of visual data, thereby determining material composition, classification, and recognition of objects through electromagnetic mapping.As Principal Investigator, my role included researching autonomous vehicles, particularly building accurate radars. Accurate radars are the technological pinnacle of safety for self-driving cars. This is because radars can ‘see’ where cameras and LiDars are ‘blind’ due to factors like fog, rain, snow, direct sunlight, or darkness. LiDar and camera blindness open a sensory gap that makes room for errors, and existing radars in the market are too crude to fill this gap. I sought to improve the radar’s wireless signal purity 100x while achieving a 100x cost reduction vs. LiDar. The result of my extensive research was a Radar with superior wireless signal quality that provides high radar accuracy while also enabling genuine redundancy, and sensory fusion, placing the radar into the sensory spearhead.
