Emerge
|
Emerge is a consumer technology company building a multi-sensory communication platform to bridge distance and time—through touch, sight, sound, and brain activity, powered by emotion AI, to allow users to digitize and transmit their emotions. With over 2 billion people worldwide feeling disconnected from others—one of the greatest life hazards ofour generation—it's time for a new communication platform that focuses on what really matters: our emotional connection with others.The first step is to introduce touch to virtual interactions—via TVs, AR, and VR displays. Emerge Wave-series is the anchor product line for the emotion AI. The patented consumer device emits precise ultrasonic forcefields that can be physically felt with bare hands—imagine a “virtual high five” or holding hands across the globe, with no gloves or controllers needed.We are proud of our impact-focused and diverse team—70% of us are immigrants and first-generation Americans. We are former entrepreneurs and industry veterans who have developed and launched products in the fields of consumer electronics, augmented reality, brain-computer interfaces, gaming, and space exploration.Founded in 2015 and based in Los Angeles, CA, Emerge is backed by venture capital firms including M13 and Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen’s Vulcan Capital, and other notable investors such as former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, and co-founders of Blizzard Entertainment, Twitch, and Riot Games. | $13.7M / Venture - Series Unknown / Nov 11, 2021 | |
Flow Neuroscience
|
Flow Neuroscience is a healthcare company that develops depression treatment devices that combines an easy-to-use brain stimulation headset with a personalized mobile app to target both the physical and behavioral elements of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). The company's wearable stimulates a patient's left frontal lobe, the area of thebrain that has often lowered activity in people suffering from depression.Flow Neuroscience combines their wearable with a mobile app that nudges users to behaviors that will help lessen the effects of their depression, including exercise and regular sleeping patterns.The company's hope is to make available for the public a treatment that's currently only used in clinics specialized in brain stimulation. It also wants to make the treatment affordable enough to seriously challenge a dominant pharmaceuticals industry. | $10M / Series A / Aug 10, 2021 | |

Oculii
|
Oculii is creating a next-generation AI software platform for radars that’s exponentially higher resolution, longer range, more accurate, and less expensive than conventional solutions – increasing safety and reliability. The promise of autonomous vehicles depends on high-performance, all-weather, low-cost and scalable perception technology, andOculii is bringing it to the world. Oculii's AI software amplifies the resolution of any radar platform, enabling high performance perception for the next generation of autonomous systems. Traditional phased array radars have been used for decades and follow a strict size for performance tradeoff - the larger the sensor aperture, the higher the angular resolution. Oculii’s Virtual Aperture Imaging radar technology fundamentally breaks this tradeoff - enabling its sensors to trade increased compute/processing for angular resolution enhancement with the same physical aperture. Leveraging this technique enables Oculii sensors to extract unprecedented accuracy, range, and 4D positioning information from commodity off the shelf low-cost radar elements, bringing high resolution radar imaging to the next frontier. Oculii is backed by some of the top investors and corporations from Silicon Valley, and is working with the leaders in Self Driving Vehicles, Robotics, and Drones - helping them deliver on an autonomous future with an advanced, robust, affordable perception platform. | $55M / Series B / May 06, 2021 | |
