Innoviz Technologies has announced a partnership with Vueron Technology, an artificial intelligence-powered lidar perception solutions company. Through this collaboration, lidar data from InnovizTwo and InnovizSmart will be integrated into Vueron’s VueX AI development platform, enabling automotive manufacturers and smart infrastructure operators to accelerate their perception development through automated data annotation, training and validation.
The integration aims to accelerate lidar-based perception by streamlining the process of annotating and labeling sensor data for AI model development. Vueron’s VueX platform leverages advanced AI to automatically annotate lidar point clouds with bounding boxes and object classifications, reducing the manual effort required while maintaining the precision needed for safety-critical applications. Users can upload Innoviz lidar data directly to the cloud-based VueX platform, where automated annotation tools process the data and allow for fine-tuning to achieve optimal accuracy.
Building on an existing partnership, Vueron has expanded its autonomous driving platform to support Innoviz’s latest lidar solutions. Following the successful use of the first-generation InnovizOne, the VueX platform now supports InnovizTwo for automotive applications and InnovizSmart for smart infrastructure, enabling an end-to-end AI cloud environment for data storage, visualization, processing, labeling, training, validation and deployment.
“Our collaboration with Vueron represents an important step in making advanced lidar technology more accessible and easier to deploy,” said Omer Keilaf, CEO and co-founder of Innoviz. “By integrating our automotive-grade sensors with Vueron’s powerful AI development tools, we’re enabling our customers to accelerate their development timelines and potentially reduce the complexity of bringing perception systems to market.”
“Integrating Innoviz’s high-performance lidar data into our VueX platform allows us to offer customers a comprehensive AI-based solution across automotive and infrastructure applications,” added Noah Jang, SVP of global business at Vueron. “The combination of Innoviz’s proven sensor technology with our automated annotation and training capabilities creates a powerful toolset that addresses real pain points in perception development.”
