SUV driving at night with thermal moose

SEE THE
UNSEEN.

Your headlights only show you the next 250 feet. RoadOwl's military-grade thermal AI detects massive wildlife hazards long before they enter your line of sight.

The Process

Split-Second Survival

1

Detect

The aerodynamic roof-mounted thermal camera continuously scans the road and tree lines for distinct heat signatures.

2

Process

Onboard Edge AI instantly analyzes the thermal shape to differentiate between harmless background heat and large animal hazards.

3

Alert

The dash module pulses with light and an audible ping, giving you crucial extra seconds to brake safely.

The Brain

Powered by NVIDIA Orin™ Nano

True safety requires zero latency. RoadOwl processes every frame of thermal and optical data locally on the device at 40 Trillion Operations Per Second—no cloud connection required.

  • Edge AI Processing for real-time, split-second threat analysis.
  • Custom Buck-Boost Power Supply guarantees stable 20V/5A power, preventing system dropouts.

The Eyes

Dual-Spectrum Vision Array

We paired the industry's most advanced uncooled thermal core with a flagship low-light optical sensor to guarantee detection in any condition.

InfiRay® 384x288 Thermal Core

Operating at a blistering 50Hz refresh rate, this sensor eliminates high-speed motion blur. It detects pure infrared radiation (heat) through an aerospace-grade Germanium lens, ignoring headlights, fog, and pitch darkness.

Sony STARVIS™ 2 (IMX678) Night Vision

This flagship 4K sensor captures unprecedented detail in starlight conditions. Its massive High Dynamic Range (HDR) easily handles blinding oncoming headlights while keeping the dark road visually clear.

Detection vs. Reaction

Raw Detection

~400 to 450 METERS (1,300+ FEET)

Long before your headlights reach it, the InfiRay core registers the heat signature. You will see a glowing white dot on your screen nearly a quarter-mile away.

AI Recognition & Alert

~120 to 150 METERS (400 to 500 FEET)

This is the magic number. At this distance, the wildlife takes up enough pixels for the NVIDIA AI to instantly classify it. The system draws a red bounding box and triggers the dashboard alarm, giving you ample time to brake.
