Zadar Labs, a Silicon Valley-based company, was founded in 2019 by Mohammad Emadi and Mahmoud Saadat.
The founders bring a wealth of experience to the company. Mohammad Emadi, who serves as the CEO and CTO, holds a Ph.D. in Digital Communication and has a background as a Post-Doctoral Research Associate at Cornell University's Ultra-High-Speed Nonlinear Integrated Circuit Lab. This academic and research experience in radar and communication systems is foundational to Zadar Labs' technological approach.
Zadar Labs is focused on developing next-generation imaging radar platforms for autonomous systems. The company's core product is a software-defined 4D Imaging Radar (SDIR) platform. This platform is designed to provide perception systems with high-performance, flexible radar capabilities. By making their radar systems "software-defined," Zadar Labs allows for greater adaptability and the integration of artificial intelligence to enhance the precision of radar sensing. This approach contrasts with traditional, more rigid hardware-based radar systems.
The company's offerings include the zVUE Radar Operating System, which works in conjunction with their flexible sensors. This technology is aimed at the autonomous vehicle and intelligent systems markets, providing the crucial sensing capabilities required for safe and efficient operation. Zadar Labs has secured $5.6 million in funding from six investors in a single round, which is being used to further develop its technology and expand its market reach.
