The verified answer
As of Aug 2026, DEPLOY verifies Tangram Vision: 1 model.
Overview
Boulder, CO-based perception infrastructure company (founded 2020) that builds MetriCal, a multi-sensor calibration and reliability platform for robotics, AVs, drones, and autonomous systems. The team of ex-Occipital engineers focuses on automating camera, LiDAR, and IMU calibration so fleets can operate with confidence, and holds a NASA Phase II SBIR for operator-free calibration on the lunar surface.
