After entering the Ayalon Lines traffic management pilot in May, and after the $ 150 million it has raised so far it has added another $ 53 million in its most recent round of funding in November, NEXAR is ready for the next road challenge.
No more a camera documenting what is happening on the road, but more than that, a pair of electronic eyes that in the vision of NEXAR will be installed in tens or hundreds of millions of cars and through transmission to the cloud will allow the company not only normal traffic management, but also predictable traffic conditions, from road hazards, recommendations For changing travel routes to warning of an accident.

At the product level itself - that is, the road camera based on Sony's camera, there is not much difference between the NEXAR product and many of the other road cameras on the market. In fact when it comes to technical specifications there are benefits from it. Except for one difference, the model here is less to sell the cameras themselves and more to use them as a potential tool for providing information.
The company uses its vast repository of photos and videos (second only to Tesla according to the company) to produce an artificial intelligence-based machine learning system. Which, according to the company, could serve as a basis for initial road mapping, one of the major challenges in the autonomous car's path.
But an element that already exists in cameras and can be very useful, is their ability to record and save detailed records of road accidents and save them directly on the phone.
Later on, a report can be generated from them at the particle level, with an analysis of the intensities of the impact and the creation of a simulation of the incident. This can be useful in cases where an investigation is required to determine the culprit in the accident, etc.
