Honored for Annotation Platform for Sensor-Fusion Data
SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Kognic, the industry-leading annotation platform for sensor-fusion data, today announced that it has been selected as a winner of an Auto Tech Breakthrough Award as "Autonomous Vehicle Innovation of the Year."
"Kognic addresses the most challenging issues facing autonomous driving technology – the quest to help machines reliably make sense of a messy, chaotic, and unstructured world," said Daniel Langkilde, CEO and Co-Founder at Kognic. "As the automotive industry turns its focus to data, Kognic is pioneering a radical course of innovation by enabling efficient sensor-fusion annotation through our software and solutions."
The mission of the AutoTech Breakthrough Awards is to honor excellence and recognize the creativity, hard work and success of companies, technologies and products in the field of transportation and automotive technology. AutoTech Breakthrough is run by the Tech Breakthrough organization, a leading market intelligence and recognition platform for the most innovative technology companies in the world. The Awards recognize the top technology companies, services and products in the industry today, across a comprehensive set of categories, including Autonomous Driving Technology. In 2023, the winner of this award was Wayve, the UK-based company that provides embodied Artificial Intelligence (AI) for autonomous driving.
"Kognic is helping global automotive OEMs and critical Tier 1/Tier2 Suppliers to unlock the promise of ADAS and AD through significantly improved model performance and safety, enabling them to better manage datasets of increasing size and complexity," said Bryan Vaughn, Managing Director, AutoTech Breakthrough.
Kognic provides the industry's most productive annotation platform for sensor-fusion data in performance-critical, AI applications such as autonomous driving and robotics. Kognic's annotation platform optimizes datasets by merging sensor data from radar, LiDAR and cameras via intuitive interfaces for visualizing complex objects and sequences. Kognic's solution has become a core toolset in the fields of Advanced Driving Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Autonomous Driving (AD), and is currently being used by technology leaders such as Qualcomm, Bosch, Continental and Zenseact, which provide ADAS/AD systems that power vehicles for global OEMs such as BMW and Volvo Cars.
"Kognic is dedicated to improving the performance of autonomous vehicles," explained Daniel Langkilde. "By processing and fine-tuning complex sensor fusion data, as well as integrating human feedback and recommendations, we are improving the safety of ADAS/AD Systems while also boosting productivity."
