Imagry (https://imagry.co/) is an Autonomous Driving software provider that has created an HD-mapless driving system. Our bio-inspired technology combines a real-time vision-based perception network and imitation-learning AI for a driving decision-making network. Imagry’s software enables the autonomous vehicle to understand the road as it goes and reacts to dynamic contexts and environments, just like a human driver. In the past five years, Imagry’s vehicles have been driving autonomously on public roads in the US, Germany, Japan and Israel. Imagry launched in early 2023 also multiple autonomous bus projects and recently received a prestigious “Approved Autonomous Transport System Vendor” by Transdev, the world’s largest public transportation operator.
We have offices in San Jose, CA (HQ) and Haifa, Israel.

AUTONOMOUS DRIVING SYSTEM EVOLUTION | 6 Each product (possibly an app on a Software Defined Vehicle platform) is independent from the rest. Traffic Jam Assist Autonomous Parking Safe Driver Overwatch™ Urban L3 Highway L3 Urban L4
PROOF OF CONCEPT: L3 AUTONOMOUS DRIVING FOR PASSENGER CARS | 7 Parking Spot Detection Vehicle can drive autonomously and mark valid parking spots, on the street and in open and covered parking lots Urban Parking Automation Introducing motion planning technology to supplement PSD capability. Vehicle can identify open parking spots on the street and in garages and execute a parking maneuver Traffic Jam Assist Vehicle can autonomously maneuver in a city and automatically slow down and speed up to keep pace in slow moving, dense traffic jams Safe Driver Overwatch™ Autonomous Vehicle can think and behave like an attentive human driver, always keeping the passengers (whether driving or not) within safety envelope (lights, signs, speed, rules…)
