Oculii is creating a next-generation AI software platform for radars that’s exponentially higher resolution, longer range, more accurate, and less expensive than conventional solutions – increasing safety and reliability. The promise of autonomous vehicles depends on high-performance, all-weather, low-cost and scalable perception technology, and Oculii is bringing it to the world. Oculii's AI software amplifies the resolution of any radar platform, enabling high performance perception for the next generation of autonomous systems. Traditional phased array radars have been used for decades and follow a strict size for performance tradeoff - the larger the sensor aperture, the higher the angular resolution. Oculii’s Virtual Aperture Imaging radar technology fundamentally breaks this tradeoff - enabling its sensors to trade increased compute/processing for angular resolution enhancement with the same physical aperture. Leveraging this technique enables Oculii sensors to extract unprecedented accuracy, range, and 4D positioning information from commodity off the shelf low-cost radar elements, bringing high resolution radar imaging to the next frontier. Oculii is backed by some of the top investors and corporations from Silicon Valley, and is working with the leaders in Self Driving Vehicles, Robotics, and Drones - helping them deliver on an autonomous future with an advanced, robust, affordable perception platform.

Zeto is a commercial stage medical technology startup transforming the way EEG (Electroencephalography) is done at hospitals. We are solving a problem unsolved since EEG was invented in 1924, i.e., an archaic, tedious approach that consumes time, requires a trained technician and puts the patient through a poor experience. Our product is the first FDA cleared wireless, zero-prep, easy-to-wear headset with dry electrodes. The device is backed by a digital platform that offers instant upload, tools for analysis, and remote interpretation by neurologists. A process that takes over 30 mins by a technician just to set up will instead take just 5 minutes from putting on the headset to interpretable EEG. Zeto has won several awards including $350,000 from the Epilepsy Foundation, 2018 MedTech Innovator Showcase company, 2018 Exponential Medicine MEDY Outstanding Pitch Award, 2017 Rosenman Innovator by UCSF's QB3.
