In this engaging episode of The AI Experience, Tactile Mobility’s Co-Founder and CTO, Boaz Mizrachi, takes listeners inside the groundbreaking world of tactile data and its pivotal role in the future of automotive intelligence.
Boaz explains how today’s vehicles—despite their growing reliance on cameras, LiDARs, and radars—still lack a fundamental sensory layer: the sense of touch. Tactile Mobility addresses this gap through AI-powered virtual sensors that analyze data from existing in-vehicle sensors to provide real-time insights into tire grip, road friction, and vehicle weight—without requiring any additional hardware.
The episode dives into:
- Why visual perception alone is not enough for safe autonomous or semi-autonomous driving
- How tactile sensing mimics human drivers’ instinctive understanding of the road
- The complexities of training AI models on real-world driving data
- Real-life applications in safety systems, predictive maintenance, and software-defined vehicle architecture
With decades of expertise in signal processing and system design, Boaz also reflects on the evolution of Tactile Mobility from idea to industry-leading provider of vehicle-road interaction solutions.
