About Iris Automation Inc ------------------------- Collision avoidance
systems for industrial drones, unlocking a $100B industry. Iris
Automation Inc is a venture-backed, high tech computer vision company
that is working to build groundbreaking new ways for drones and unmanned
systems to perceive and navigate the world. Currently, industrial drone
systems are not trusted to fly beyond-line-of-sight or be completely
autonomous; we are changing that by giving them the ability to
intelligently see and react to the physical world. Our product is a
sophisticated computer vision algorithm packaged into a physical,
plug-and-play perception unit that adds tremendous value to unmanned
systems operators as it enables them to overcome regulatory, insurance,
trust and safety concerns. The team includes PhDs in Computer Vision,
has worked together in the drone industry for the last three years, and
combines experience from NASA, Boeing, Airbus, NVIDIA, and leading tech
startups. We are an equal opportunity employer who values diversity at
our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion,
color, national origin, gender identity and/or expression, sexual
orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
