Foresight Sets a New Standard for Autonomous Vehicle Vision at CES 2018
Foresight’s new vision system is designed to achieve near-100% obstacle detection under all weather
conditions with near zero false alerts
Foresight Autonomous Holdings Ltd. (NASDAQ and TASE: FRSX), an innovator in automotive vision systems, announced today that the
Company will showcase, for the first time, its groundbreaking QuadSight TM vision system targeting the semi-autonomous and autonomous vehicle market at CES 2018 in
Las Vegas, January 9–12, in booth #7538.

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 each of stereoscopic infrared and daylight cameras to
set a new bar for autonomous vehicle vision. 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.
“At Foresight, we believe that a car’s vision system should be nothing less than perfect,” said Haim Siboni, CEO of Foresight. “Vision is the foundation of passenger safety, and vision perfection under all weather and lighting
conditions is clearly the breakthrough that vehicle makers need to build consumer confidence in order to accelerate autonomous
vehicle adoption.”
QuadSightTM, Foresight’s breakthrough innovation, is derived directly from field-proven security technology and
incorporates accurate image-processing algorithms and sensor fusion, achieving superior detection under all weather and lighting
conditions.
“Because vision perfection is that elusive capability autonomous vehicle makers have long pursued, the potential impact
of Foresight’s breakthrough cannot be overstated,” said leading market analyst Jean-Christophe
Eloy, President, CEO and Founder of Yole Développement, part of the Yole Group of Companies, which includes System
Plus Consulting, KnowMade, PISEO and Blumorpho. “In a single stroke, QuadSightTM surpasses so many other approaches
that simply can’t address the real world need for all-weather, all-conditions driving, making it the relevant answer for
the industry’s long-term trajectory.”
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 3D
objects in real time, whether objects are large or small, in-motion or static, or detected from short or long-range distances. The
dynamic driving environment demands a level of accuracy that only stereoscopic cameras can provide.
CES attendees can view an in-car QuadSightTM demo at Foresight’s booth #7538. Contact Foresight to schedule a

A prototype of the QuadSightTM system will be available for pilot projects during the first half of 2018.
Development, completion and commercialization of the QuadSightTM system is expected during the second half of 2019.
