Obvio reduces fatalities and injuries to pedestrians and drivers with a new approach to drive behavior change
Obvio通过一种全新的驾驶行为改变方法,减少了行人和司机的死亡和伤害。
SAN CARLOS, Calif., June 4, 2025-- Obvio, which improves traffic safety with an AI-powered traffic camera solution, today announced $22 million in Series A funding led by Bain Capital Ventures. Additional investors include Khosla Ventures and Pathlight Ventures. With these funds, Obvio will expand nationally and grow the team..
加利福尼亚州圣卡洛斯,2025年6月4日——Obvio是一家通过人工智能驱动的交通摄像头解决方案提升交通安全的公司,今天宣布获得由贝恩资本风投领投的2200万美元A轮融资。其他投资者包括科斯拉创投和Pathlight Ventures。利用这笔资金,Obvio将扩大全国业务并扩充团队。
Traffic fatalities have accelerated over the last few years to become a national crisis. Each day in America, more than 100 people are killed in traffic accidents - more fatalities per mile driven than most high-income nations. This is the equivalent of a commercial airplane crashing daily, but we don’t have to accept these fatalities as an inevitability..
过去几年中,交通事故死亡人数不断攀升,成为全国性危机。在美国,每天有超过100人死于交通事故——每英里驾驶的死亡率高于大多数高收入国家。这相当于每天有一架商业飞机坠毁,但我们不必将这些死亡视为不可避免。
Despite more than $35 billion of government funding spent in recent years, traffic fatalities are still higher than pre-pandemic levels. This is because existing approaches – education, engineering and limited enforcement – are grossly inadequate. Engineering projects like road diets and roundabouts cost millions of dollars and take years to complete.
近年来,尽管政府已经花费了超过350亿美元的资金,但交通事故死亡人数仍然高于疫情前的水平。这是因为现有的方法——教育、工程改造和有限的执法——远远不够。像道路瘦身和环形交叉口这样的工程项目耗资数百万美元,并且需要数年时间才能完成。
Education campaigns about traffic laws don’t elicit meaningful change. Amid an ongoing police staffing shortage, there are not enough resources to allocate toward traffic enforcement to squash the most dangerous behaviors on the roadways: phone-scrolling while driving, failure to stop at stop signs, and not yielding to pedestrians..
关于交通法规的宣传教育活动并没有带来实质性的改变。在警察人力持续短缺的情况下,没有足够的资源可以分配到交通执法上,以遏制道路上最危险的行为:开车时浏览手机、不按规定在停车标志处停车,以及不给行人让路。
Obvio brings a new, holistic solution to traffic safety, giving municipalities and law enforcement the tools needed to change driver behavior and create a new culture of safety on the roadways. Obvio deploys solar-powered AI cameras to 1) detect a wide range of dangerous driving behavior; 2) create visibility for community members; and 3) enable law enforcement to automatically send citations to the most egregious violators..
Obvio为交通安全带来了全新的整体解决方案,为市政当局和执法机构提供了改变驾驶员行为、在道路上创造全新安全文化的工具。Obvio部署了太阳能供电的AI摄像头,以实现以下功能:1)检测各种危险驾驶行为;2)提高社区成员的可见性;3)使执法部门能够自动向最严重的违规者发送罚单。
“Obvio was built to provide real accountability to drivers and avoid so many preventable injuries and fatalities,” said Ali Rehan, co-founder and CEO. “I see the need for change first hand. Every day I walk my daughter to school and see drivers blowing through stop signs. Even the crossing guards say they feel scared trying to keep children out of harm’s way.”.
“Obvio 的诞生是为了让司机切实负起责任,避免许多可以预防的伤害和死亡,”联合创始人兼首席执行官阿里·里汉表示。“我亲眼目睹了改变的必要性。每天我带女儿上学时,都会看到司机闯停车标志。就连路口的协管员也说,他们试图保护孩子们免受伤害时感到害怕。”
In Prince George’s County, Maryland, after two children were struck and killed near a school, Obvio partnered with local leaders to launch a first-of-its-kind stop sign camera program. Obvio measured thousands of drivers running stop signs during pick-up and drop-off hours and began sharing statistics with communities at portals like letsdrivesafer.com/morningside.
在马里兰州乔治王子县,两起儿童在学校附近被撞身亡的事故发生后,Obvio 与当地领导人合作,推出了首个停车标志摄像头项目。Obvio 测量了数千名司机在接送时段闯停车标志的行为,并开始通过诸如 letsdrivesafer.com/morningside 等平台向社区分享统计数据。
The county used Obvio’s program to issue tickets, which reduced stop sign running by 50% within eight weeks..
该县使用了Obvio的程序来开罚单,此举在八周内将闯停车标志的行为减少了50%。
“Even if I had 30 more officers, I wouldn’t be able to accomplish what we did with Obvio,” said Dan Franklin, police chief of Morningside, Maryland, which is in Prince George’s County. “We are moving closer to our 100% stop sign compliance goal - this has made both my residents and elected officials very happy.”.
“即使我再有30名警官,也无法做到我们用Obvio达成的成果,”马里兰州乔治王子郡晨边警察局长丹·富兰克林表示。“我们正在接近100%的停车标志遵守率目标——这让我的居民和民选官员都非常高兴。”
Existing traffic safety technology has not been updated in more than 25 years. Obvio presents the opportunity to apply cutting-edge technology to address a national crisis, while keeping safety and privacy top of mind. Obvio’s intelligent cameras only collect necessary information and have privacy intelligence on each device.
现有的交通安全技术已经超过25年没有更新。Obvio提供了应用尖端技术解决国家危机的机会,同时始终将安全和隐私放在首位。Obvio的智能摄像头仅收集必要信息,并在每个设备上具备隐私保护功能。
For example, footage that is not a traffic violation is automatically blurred or deleted and only critical information is shared with municipalities and law enforcement..
例如,不是交通违规的视频会被自动模糊处理或删除,只有关键信息会分享给市政当局和执法部门。
Co-founders Ali Rehan and Dhruv Maheshwari met at Motive, where they built AI camera technology to help more than 200,000 commercial fleet drivers drive more safely. Ali, a second-time founder, incubated Motive’s industry-leading safety dashcam business, with Dhruv joining Motive from Google’s Augmented Reality team.
联合创始人阿里·里汉和德鲁夫·马赫什瓦里在Motive相识,他们在那里开发了人工智能摄像技术,帮助超过20万名商用车队司机更安全地驾驶。阿里是一位二次创业的创始人,他孵化了Motive行业领先的安全行车记录仪业务,而德鲁夫则从谷歌的增强现实团队加入Motive。
After recognizing that Motive technology helped truck drivers reduce crashes, they are now applying those learnings and technology to public safety..
在认识到Motive技术帮助卡车司机减少事故后,他们现在正在将这些经验和技术应用于公共安全。
Obvio aims to usher in a new paradigm of how cameras should be thoughtfully used in society. Its cameras can transform how governments and communities understand their own roadways. The company is doing so by solving technical challenges across computer vision, hardware design and operations, while having a positive impact on residents and municipalities..
Obvio 旨在开创一种关于如何在社会中深思熟虑地使用摄像头的新范式。其摄像头可以改变政府和社区对其道路的理解方式。该公司通过解决计算机视觉、硬件设计和运营方面的技术挑战,同时对居民和市政当局产生积极影响,来实现这一目标。
“We were impressed to see the thoughtfulness by which the founders, Ali and Dhruv, were approaching communities: focusing on both safety and privacy,” said Ajay Agarwal, partner at Bain Capital Ventures. “It was this, combined with product velocity and customer obsession, which has led to steep growth and insane levels of customer and market pull.”.
“我们看到创始人阿里和德鲁以如此周到的方式对待社区:既关注安全又注重隐私,这给我们留下了深刻印象,”贝恩资本风险投资公司的合伙人阿贾伊·阿加瓦尔表示。“正是这一点,加上产品的快速迭代和对客户的高度关注,促成了其陡峭的增长和惊人的客户与市场需求。”
