How Mobileye evolved into a force in automotive computer vision and driver assistance

Mobileye was founded in Israel in 1999 by Amnon Shashua and Ziv Aviram to commercialise computer-vision technology for road safety and driver assistance.

How Mobileye developed

The company went public in 2014, was acquired by Intel for $15.3 billion in 2017, and returned to public markets in October 2022. Its technology expanded from camera-based warning systems into advanced driver-assistance, mapping and autonomous-driving platforms.

Mobileye in 2026

By 2026, Mobileye was again an independently traded Intel-controlled company supplying automotive sensing, mapping and driving-assistance technology to vehicle manufacturers.

Mobileye is significant because it helped move machine vision from research into mass-market automotive safety systems long before fully autonomous vehicles became commercially mature.
