What AEye, Inc. does.

We are a provider of physical AI sensing solutions built on high-performance, active lidar systems for vehicle autonomy, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), robotic vision and a range of Non-Automotive applications. Our physical AI approach combines software‑defined sensing with adaptive perception capabilities that enable machines to interpret and respond to complex physical environments in real time. Our proprietary Intelligent Sensing Platform incorporates a solid‑state, software‑definable active lidar sensor; an adaptive SmartScan architecture that dynamically adjusts scan patterns for different scenes and targets; and a signal‑processing pipeline designed to deliver precise measurements and imaging for safety‑critical use cases. This platform is designed to support a broad set of markets beyond passenger vehicles, including rail, aerospace and defense, smart infrastructure, and security, where long‑range performance, environmental robustness, and software‑based configurability are key requirements.

We were founded in 2013 by Luis Dussan, a member of our Board of Directors and our first Chief Executive Officer, with the goal of creating a deterministic AI-driven sensing system that performs better than the human eye and visual cortex. Mr. Dussan's experience developing mission-critical targeting systems for fighter jets and ground troops on behalf of the U.S. military provided us with the background to develop a differentiated approach to visual sensing. While traditional sensing systems passively collect data, our active Intelligent Sensing Platform leverages principles from automated targeting systems and biomimicry to scan the environment, while intelligently focusing on what matters in order to enable safer, smarter, and faster decisions in complex scenarios. From our inception, our culture drew from esteemed scientists and electro-optics engineers from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, or NASA, Lockheed Martin Corporation, Northrop Grumman Corporation, the U.S. Air Force, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, to create the highest performing sensing and perception system for the most challenging situations, ensuring the highest levels of safety for autonomous driving.
