In its own words

Ouster, Inc. is a leader in sensing and perception for Physical Artificial Intelligence (Physical AI). Ouster enables machines to “Sense, Think, Act, and Learn” and independently execute tasks without human intervention. Physical AI allows machines to move beyond fixed, preprogrammed behavior into adaptive, intelligent action by focusing on perception, understanding, and learning from the physical world. As a pioneer in Physical AI, Ouster offers a unified sensing and perception platform that combines high-performance digital lidar, cameras, AI compute, sensor fusion and perception software, and cutting-edge AI models to our customers.

We anticipate that 3D vision technologies, coupled with artificial intelligence, will power autonomy that in turn will fundamentally disrupt business models across many existing industries and enable entirely new industries and capabilities. We believe that our digital lidar sensors are one of the highest performing, lowest cost solutions available today, which we believe positions us at the center of a global revolution in autonomy.

We envision a future where our technology that combines sensing, compute, applications and artificial intelligence will become universal for empowering 3D perception capabilities within robots, cars, trucks, and drones, as well as factories, warehouses, roads, sidewalks, public spaces, retail stores, stadiums, docks, and airport terminals. We believe our patents and ongoing development of perception, analytics, mapping, and localization software will better position us in this evolutionary environment.
