Summary

  • Artificial intelligence (AI) start-up Glass Imaging has raised $20m in a Series A funding round led by Global software investor Insight Partners.
  • The California-based company uses AI to enhance picture quality by removing imperfections in images caused by lenses and sensors.
  • CEO Ziv Attar said the funds would be used to refine and deploy GlassAI technology across various camera platforms, ranging from smartphones to drones.
  • “The lab or computers can capture a lot of data from the camera and it learns to characterize lens aberration, sensor noise, optical blur, and then it creates a network that can reverse these things,” Attar told VentureBeat.
  • Glass Imaging aims to integrate its software into AR headsets, security cameras and cinema cameras, as well as smartphones.
