The Edison Awards, named after the American inventor Thomas Alva Edison, recognize the world’s most innovative products and business leaders. Past winners include Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, General Motors, Genentech and others. This year marks the inaugural year for the Smart Transportation category, which recognizes leading innovations and products that are accelerating the future of mobility. The Gold, Silver and Bronze Winners are chosen as the “best of the best” within their respective categories by senior business executives, designers, academics and innovation leaders.
“LiDAR is the new standard for automotive safety, and it is an honor to be recognized as one of the first Gold winners in the Edison Awards’ newest category, Smart Transportation,” said Omer Keilaf, Co-founder and CEO at Innoviz. “Our InnovizTwo LiDAR is expertly engineered and rigorously tested to meet the leading OEMs’ strict performance and design requirements at a cost that can support scale, unlocking safe mobility for all.”
InnovizTwo is designed to offer a safe, automotive-grade, solution for autonomous vehicles, that will enable safe Level 2+ to Level 4 autonomy and features an embedded perception software at a competitive price.
The 2023 winners were selected by the Edison Awards Steering Committee as well as an independent judging panel of senior scientists, designers, engineers, marketers and leading academics. Innoviz was selected from among thousands of applicants, making the Company one of 153 companies to receive an Edison Award this year. The award was officially presented at the Edison Awards Gala on April 20, 2023, in Fort Myers, Florida. Innoviz Vice President of North America Scott Craig accepted the award on behalf of the Company.
