HyperVision, established in Israel in 2020 by co-founders Arthur Rabner and Michael Kanevsky, is a deep-tech company focused on developing optical technology for the virtual and mixed-reality sectors. Arthur Rabner, who serves as CEO, holds a Ph.D. in Physical Electronics and has a background in near-eye optics and hardware design. Co-founder Michael Kanevsky, the VP of R&D, is a software architect with experience in cloud systems, imaging, and embedded IoT.
The company's core business revolves around creating and supplying high-end visual engines for VR/MR headsets. HyperVision operates on a flexible business model that includes both the direct supply of its visual engines and the licensing of its technology and manufacturing processes to headset manufacturers. Initially, the company is targeting enterprise clients in sectors that require high-performance VR/MR, such as flight simulation and remote robotics. HyperVision plans to expand into the prosumer market by 2026 and the consumer market by 2028 as production costs decrease.
HyperVision's technology aims to solve critical challenges related to the human-vision experience in virtual environments. Its primary product is a patent-pending optical system designed to deliver a field of view (FoV) that mimics natural human sight, extending up to 270 degrees. A key feature is the "Bionic hybrid lens," which provides peripheral vision without the user needing to turn their head, a design intended to reduce the nausea often associated with VR use. The technology also focuses on maintaining edge-to-edge clarity and features auto-calibration algorithms to match individual eye anatomy. The company has received funding from various sources, including angel investors, venture funds like LABS02, and grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority and the European Union.
