Hexagon has announced the acquisition of AutonomouStuff, one of the world’s leading suppliers of integrated autonomous vehicle solutions.
Founded in 2010, US-based AutonomouStuff builds platforms for autonomous vehicle development, robotics and data intelligence innovation that are already in use with 2,500 customers from Silicon Valley to South East Asia.
“The acquisition of AutonomouStuff accelerates Hexagon’s ability to move our customers beyond the data impasse of IoT,” said Hexagon president and CEO Ola Rollén.
“We’re particularly interested in technologies that are the most disruptive – those capable of leveraging the vast potential of data being generated by connected things, integrating AI, Edge-Cloud Orchestration, Mobility, and Data Visualisation into autonomous connected ecosystems.”
Rollén believes that when combined with Hexagon’s positioning intelligence, mapping and sensor technologies that this acquisition will create a “nexus of domain expertise” that will lead the autonomous mobility industry “for years to come”.
