Foresight says Eye-Net achieves 99% detection rate in urban mobility trials

Foresight Autonomous (FRSX) Holdings’ Eye-Net Mobile completed the first phase of a landmark mobility trial in Bordeaux, France. The trial involved a mobile app developed by Orange (ORANY) alongside other urban applications as part of Eye-Net’s collaboration with Software Republique. This follows the agreement with Software Republique to enable smart mobility solutions for efficient urban mobility in France, as announced by the Company on November 27. The Bordeaux trial, conducted in collaboration with Renault Group, Orange., Keolis Bordeaux Metropole Mobilite, Bordeaux INP, Allianz and Eviden, aims to address the evolving challenges of urban mobility and represents a significant step forward in the Eye-Net’s mission to enhance road safety for all urban road users, including drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians. In the first phase, Eye-Net’s vehicle-to-everything platform was integrated into Orange’s mobile app and was deployed in real-world urban settings in Bordeaux, including interactions between cyclists, passenger vehicles and buses. Using widely available smartphones and connected vehicles, Eye-Net’s technology creates a real-time communication network that can detect potential collisions and deliver immediate alerts, even in situations with limited or obstructed visibility. The second phase of the trial is planned for the fourth quarter of 2025 and will involve up to 10,000 participants using a public transportation app. During this phase, Eye-Net’s alert system will be tested in live urban environments, focusing on scenarios involving cyclists and buses. Eye-Net’s solution achieved an impressive detection rate, successfully detecting more than 99% of interactions between users. Eye-Net’s technology demonstrated robust interoperability, integrating smoothly with collaboration applications and data providers through its software development kit. Beyond technical performance, the trial provided valuable insights into user experience and expectations. Cyclists reported increased confidence when navigating busy urban routes, while drivers appreciated the added layer of awareness provided by real-time alerts.
