Foresight: Eye-Net and SoftBank Join Forces with Japanese Automaker to Advance Cellular V2X Technology for Enhanced Road Safety
December 20 2024 - 6:40AM
Foresight Autonomous Holdings Ltd. (Nasdaq and TASE: FRSX)
(“Foresight” or the “Company”), an innovator in 3D perception
systems, announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Eye-Net Mobile
Ltd. (“Eye-Net” or “Eye-Net Mobile”) has entered into a multi-phase
agreement with SoftBank Corp. (Tokyo: 9434) (“SoftBank”) and a
leading Japanese vehicle manufacturer. The collaboration aims to
evaluate Eye-Net’s cutting-edge cellular vehicle-to-everything
(C-V2X) technology as a key component in advanced driver assistance
systems, potentially setting a new standard for road safety.
Under the terms of the agreement signed earlier
this year, Eye-Net is conducting a paid proof of concept (POC)
project supported by SoftBank’s cellular network infrastructure.
This initiative is designed to explore the integration of Eye-Net’s
non-line-of-sight collision avoidance solution into the automaker’s
future vehicle systems, addressing critical challenges in real-time
situational awareness.
The initial phase of the collaboration consists
of an evaluation of Eye-Net™ Sense demonstration kit in a
standalone mode. Upon successful evaluation, the parties may engage
in the second phase of integrating Eye-Net Sense into the vehicle
manufacturer’s infotainment systems. Successful completion of the
first two phases could lead to the integration of the Eye-Net Sense
solution into the manufacturer’s advanced driver assistance
systems, potentially leading to the full commercial deployment in
the manufacturer’s vehicles.
"This collaboration marks a significant
milestone in our mission to revolutionize road safety through
cutting-edge C-V2X technology. By combining Eye-Net’s innovative
solutions with SoftBank’s robust infrastructure and the expertise
of a leading Japanese automaker, we are taking a vital step toward
creating safer roads and protecting millions of lives from
non-line-of-sight collisions," said Dror Elbaz, Chief Executive
Office of Eye-Net.
