Lyte, an end-to-end integrated perception company focused on robotics and Physical AI, has officially emerged from stealth mode with $107 million in aggregate funding. Based in Mountain View, California, the company is building the foundational perception technology that enables robots to see, understand, and safely navigate the physical world. Lyte was founded by Alexander Shpunt, Arman Hajati, and Yuval Gerson—key engineers who played pivotal roles in developing Apple’s depth-sensing and perception systems. Shpunt, who will serve as CEO, brings deep expertise in computer vision, sensor fusion, and real-time perception systems, having led advanced hardware and software development at Apple. The company’s mission is to create a robust, scalable perception stack that powers autonomous systems across industries such as logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, and consumer robotics. Unlike traditional approaches that rely on fragmented tools and point solutions, Lyte offers an integrated platform combining hardware, software, and AI models designed to work seamlessly together. With the new funding, Lyte plans to accelerate product development, expand its engineering team, and establish partnerships with leading robotics and automation companies. The investment reflects growing demand for reliable, real-world perception systems as Physical AI moves beyond research labs into commercial deployment. The company’s technology is designed to handle complex, dynamic environments—such as crowded warehouses or unpredictable outdoor settings—where accurate depth perception, object recognition, and motion prediction are critical. By delivering higher accuracy and lower latency than existing solutions, Lyte aims to become the standard for perception in next-generation robots. As the race to build intelligent physical systems intensifies, Lyte positions itself at the forefront of a new era in robotics, where machines don’t just follow instructions but truly perceive and adapt to their surroundings.
