From Cognata
Israeli startup Cognata, Ltd., a provider of simulation software and training data for ADAS and autonomous vehicles, has partnered with South Korean based LiDAR perception Company – Seoul Robotics. Cognata will provide 3D point cloud synthetic data which it says will boost Seoul Robotics LiDAR perception software technology.
Founded in 2016, Cognata is a global supplier of large-scale automotive simulation for the Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) and autonomous vehicle markets. The company boasts that it offers an end to end platform which it says accelerates time to market by delivering simulation solutions for the entire automated driving product lifecycle, from training to testing to deployment.
Cognata joins Startup Nation success stories like Mobileye in this field.

Advanced driver-assistance systems are electronic systems which have been developed to help drivers to drive and park more safely. A computerized system works together with a driver. ADAS systems use automated technology, such as sensors and cameras, to detect nearby obstacles or driver errors.
Have you ever driven a car with one of those little monitors connected to a rear camera? The monitor allows a driver to see what is behind him when driving in reverse. This saves you the pain of twisting your neck all the way to the side when you stick it out the window when looking back, while giving the driver a better view. It also beeps a warning when you get too close to an object.
That’s ADAS.

Lidar is a component of ADAS. Lidar measures distances by illuminating a target with laser light and measuring the reflection with a sensor. Differences in laser return times and wavelengths can then be used to make digital 3-D representations of the target.
