Imagry and AutonomouStuff to develop map-free autonomous driving solutions

According to foreign media reports, on April 28 local time, Imagry announced a partnership with  AutonomouStuff to incorporate its technology into AutonomouStuff 's leading autonomous driving technology portfolio for resale worldwide. AutonomouStuff customers who want to avoid the limits of high-precision maps can now take advantage of Imagry's efficient, scalable and reliable mapless technology when developing and deploying their own autonomous driving solutions. Imagry is an autonomous driving software developer with an advanced mapless driving platform, while AutonomouStuff is the autonomous driving division of the Positioning Intelligence division of Hexagon, Sweden.

There are two approaches to developing self-driving car technology: HD maps and no maps. HD maps are the most common approach and rely on pre-built maps, which hinders the large-scale deployment of self-driving cars. Imagry's mapless technology does not require pre-built maps to be used. Instead, its technology is based on a visual method to "see" the world in front of it, essentially reproducing the vehicle's surroundings in real time, allowing the vehicle to quickly adapt to the surrounding environment.

The best way to develop safe, cost-effective and fast-to-market solutions for autonomous driving is to collaborate and bring in world-class suppliers. AutonomouStuff’s leading R&D platform, products, software and engineering services are critical to Imagry’s go-to-market strategy to quickly reach multiple autonomous driving solution developers. Imagry’s mapless solution challenges the limits of computer vision and artificial intelligence technology, fundamentally changing the way autonomous mobility is delivered. AutonomouStuff’s key mission is to integrate Imagry’s mapless software into the autonomous driving architecture.
