our technology

A.D Knight solves the problem of detecting road users in obscured and low visibility scenarios, based on a novel sensor which detects personal devices such as mobile phones.

​

The sensors measure the personal devices' positions relative to the vehicle, estimate road users' trajectories, and assess road users' awareness of traffic.
