About

We are here to catapult the mobility industry into far-reaching frontiers, by unleashing the power of tactile data.

Tactile Mobility’s multidisciplinary team of innovators has been passionately honing the missing sense for superior driving, since 2012. With presence in the U.S., Germany, and Israel, we apply our vast experience in signal processing, AI, big data analysis, embedded computing, and more, to transform the mobility industry.
We bring the missing tactile sense and dynamic data, crucial for the future of smart and autonomous vehicles that currently rely heavily only on visual-based systems. Our solution mimics and surpasses human driving capacity, by letting in-car systems of self-driving cars not only to “see” the road but also “feel” it. This pioneering approach brings to life accumulated research of more than a decade, tested and perfected in rides for over tens of millions of miles of road data across multiple continents.
By augmenting visual sensing with the missing vehicle-road tactility, actionable insights are fed back to onboard computers to optimize driving decisions in real-time. Data is also anonymized and uploaded to the cloud for big-data analysis, generating a constantly updated crowd-sourced mapping of global road conditions for accurate monitoring. Our two models, VehicleDNATM SurfaceDNATM, cater to real-time auto responses and reliable mapping information.

As the world’s pioneering provider of tactile data, our comprehensive tactile solution serves the automotive industry, municipalities, road authorities, fleet managers, and insurers.
