Tera AI, a startup founded by Tony Zhang, has secured $7.8 million in seed funding to develop software for visual navigation in robots.
Tera AI aims to provide affordable visual navigation for autonomous robots through a pure-software approach using spatial reasoning AI.
The software works with any robot that has a pre-existing camera and a GPU, and can be applied to novel scenarios through over-the-air software updates.
The funding will be used to deploy Tera AI's initial solution on embedded devices and expand its technical team.
