Priced at $199, the K3Y is a USB device that sits in the glove
box of Tesla vehicles, acting as a silent bridge between the
vehicle’s built-in external cameras and a user’s phone. The device
records footage from the Tesla vehicle’s external front, side, and
rear cameras, offering a surround view of every trip, and its
built-in sensors add important context using advanced AI technology
to intelligently flag events like honks, harsh braking, front
collision warnings, and autopilot disengagement.
The CONSOL3 mobile app for iOS and Android provides seamless
access to footage from each trip recorded by the K3Y. Users can
simply tap a point on the map and select front, side, or rear view.
Events and incidents are automatically flagged, and as long as the
K3Y is connected to Wi-Fi, footage can be accessed remotely. The
app also supports third-party extensions, paving the way for a
range of additional capabilities, from cloud storage uploads to
driver rewards. MATT3R is currently collaborating with partners on
multiple extensions and will announce them over the coming weeks
and months.
Based in Vancouver, Canada, MATT3R brings together
industry-leading expertise in hardware, software, and artificial
intelligence. Founder and CEO Hamid Abdollahi is a serial
entrepreneur whose previous startup, Recon Instruments, launched
the world’s first smart eyewear solutions for sports, adding a new
dimension to activities like snowboarding and cycling. Recon
Instruments was acquired by Intel in 2015. Hamid is also Chairman
of Novarc Technologies Inc., a leader in robotic welding
innovation.
“We are thrilled to introduce the K3Y, a must-have companion for
Tesla owners and fleets,” said MATT3R Founder and CEO Hamid
Abdollahi. “Our objective is to contribute to a safer future of
mobility by offering a scalable platform that leverages advanced AI
and integrates seamlessly with Tesla's existing technology. The K3Y
device and our scenario digital twin technology demonstrate our
commitment to innovation and enhancing road safety for all.”
The K3Y is just one component of MATT3R’s push to keep drivers
safe by leveraging advanced AI innovation. MATT3R is also
developing software solutions to streamline research and
development for companies developing Automated Driving Systems
(ADS). These solutions can turn raw driving data into
simulation-ready scenarios that can be used to train ADS
algorithms. These solutions can also leverage anonymized data
collected from K3Y users, providing cost-effective access to
reconstructed driving scenarios that cover a wide range of
real-world situations. This data is fully anonymized to protect the
privacy of K3Y users.
