Foresight Announces First Sale of QuadSightTM Prototype

Foresight Autonomous Holdings Ltd. (Nasdaq and TASE: FRSX), an innovator in automotive vision systems, announced today the first sale of a prototype of its breakthrough QuadSightTM quad-camera vision system targeted for the semi-autonomous and autonomous vehicle market, designated to allow near 100% obstacle detection under any weather and lighting conditions. The first system was ordered by a truck division of a large European vehicle manufacturer in order to evaluate the system and its performance on the manufacturer’s trucks. Revenue from the system sale is expected to total tens of thousands of dollars.

This and any future sale of QuadSightTM prototypes is expected to provide Foresight with important customer feedback and a deeper understanding of the customers’ main requirements, while also allowing Foresight to modify the system to the customers’ needs within a short period of time. In addition, Foresight believes that sales of QuadSightTM prototypes will strengthen its relations with potential customers. Customer satisfaction at the end of the evaluation process is expected to lead to a large order of QuadSightTM systems by the vehicle manufacturer for mass production.

Foresight intends to increase awareness of its unique solutions, address potential customers, and expand its presence with vehicle manufacturers and automotive tier one suppliers by selling additional prototypes. Foresight believes that a closer evaluation of the technology by potential customers may lead to future collaborations in research and development, integration, production and more.

About QuadSightTM

Foresight first launched a demo of its QuadSightTM system last January at the CES show in Las Vegas. Foresight regards QuadSightTM as the industry’s most accurate quad-camera vision system, offering exceptional obstacle detection for semi-autonomous and autonomous vehicle safety. Using proven, highly advanced image-processing algorithms, QuadSightTM uses four-camera technology that combines two pairs of stereoscopic infrared and daylight cameras. QuadSightTM is designed to achieve near-100% obstacle detection with near zero false alerts under any weather or lighting conditions – including complete darkness, rain, haze, fog and glare.

Stereoscopic vision technology’s exceptional three-dimensional (3D) images, detection and accuracy are essential for safe and reliable semi-autonomous and autonomous vehicle vision systems. Stereoscopic cameras exceed a human driver’s ability to see objects in real time, whether large or small, in-motion or static, and from short or long-range distances. The dynamic driving environment demands a level of accuracy that only stereoscopic cameras can provide.
