2018 Vision Product of the Year Award Winner Showcase: Algolux (Automotive Solutions)

Algolux_600_360

Algolux's CNA is the 2018 Vision Product of the Year Award Winner in the Automotive Solutions category. CANA is a novel end-to-end deep neural network (DNN) for much more robust perception in challenging imaging conditions, such as low light, adverse weather, or lens issues found in the real world. RAW or lightly processed image sensor data is directly input into the CANA DNN, bypassing traditional ISP pre-processing. Lens and sensor characteristics are fused into the early levels of the DNN to understand how the image is being formed, while the upper layers address the perception task, such as object detection, classification, or segmentation. The network is trained end-to-end with a tailored training approach that leverages a combination of captured and synthetic annotated data. This results in significantly improved perception in difficult imaging conditions, typically 20-30% versus current state of the art and higher in more extreme scenarios.

“We are honored to win the ‘Best Automotive Solution’ award. Our CANA perception stack represents a reimagining of traditional imaging architectures with the end goal of producing far greater robustness than can be achieved with today’s vision systems. The Embedded Vision Alliance has been an ideal vehicle for Algolux to meet with key stakeholders in the industry, showcase our technology, and bring it to market.”
Allan Benchetrit, President and CEO, Algolux
