Company

Mobileye

Mobileye is an Israeli autonomous-driving and vision-technology company (founded 1999, Jerusalem), majority-owned by Intel and publicly traded on NASDAQ (MBLY). It is the leading supplier of camera-based ADAS through its EyeQ system-on-chip (over 200 million shipped) and builds a tiered driving-automation stack (SuperVision, Chauffeur, and the driverless Mobileye Drive) plus REM crowdsourced HD mapping; Mobileye Drive powers robotaxi and shuttle programs with partners including Volkswagen and Holon. In January 2026 Mobileye agreed to acquire the Israeli humanoid-robot startup Mentee Robotics for about $900 million (announced at CES, expected to close in Q1 2026), its first entry into humanoid robotics. The automotive-perception-to-humanoid tech-transfer rationale and the 'physical-AI leader' positioning are the company's stated strategy rather than demonstrated outcomes.
