About

Deepnight™ creates the best night vision cameras in the world by embedding AI models into them. Our AI model processes the camera’s extremely limited signal with an edge AI chip, and can handle light levels as dark as overcast moonless starlight (0.1 millilux), which is as dark as it can possibly be while on the exposed surface of the earth. When combined with state of the art digital image sensors, we exceed the performance of conventional analog night vision (the Gen 3 image intensifier tube). By using commoditized digital image sensors, we are transforming night vision from a scarce defense industry capability into a scalable digital product, unlocking consumer electronics supply chains for mass production. We will enable millions of people, robots, drones, and autonomous vehicles to perform in total darkness.
