Overview
Sensmore retrofits heavy machinery such as haul trucks, dumpers, and wheel loaders with its hardware and AI to create autonomous, self-reasoning machines. It is a full-system provider that delivers end-to-end solutions working in real time in harsh environments, using a stack of cameras, 4D radar, and Vision-Language-Action Models (VLAMs). Its modules include Machine Assist for collision alerts and positioning, Site OS for live operational monitoring, and Eye for vision-based quality control, all co-developed with clients to ensure immediate value. Differentiating itself by retrofitting existing fleets with Physical AI rather than building new autonomous machines, Sensmore targets industries like mining and construction to address labor shortages and rising costs, while partnering with customers such as CEMEX and Lhoist to scale across fleets.
