😖 Challenges

Competitors like Tesla are accelerating ahead with camera-first perception models, trained on massive volumes of real-world driving video. This gives them a major advantage in fine-tuning their safety systems for complex, unpredictable conditions.

To keep pace, our customer needs to upgrade their simulation environment to generate high-quality visual and LiDAR data that can train and validate sensor software—before physical hardware is ready. Traditional methods fall short, unable to scale across the wide range of real-world variables that impact safety, such as weather, traffic patterns, road layouts, and unexpected human behavior.

🚫 No GPU-native pipeline to convert CAD models into simulation-ready assets

🚫 Lack of synchronized camera + LiDAR input for training and testing

🚫 No predictive simulation capability to generate edge cases and rare scenarios

🚫 Slow iteration cycles due to fragmented tools, manual workflows, and compute limitations
