Mobileye sets GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS(TM) title for the Most People Using Virtual Reality Displays at 2017 YPO EDGE event
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA, 6 March 2017 -- During the YPO EDGE, 1,867
members of YPO, the premier leadership organization for chief executives in the
world, became a part of history in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, as
Mobileye, the leading supplier of software that enables Advanced Driver Assist
Systems (ADAS), set a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for the most people using
virtual reality displays. Mobileye Co-founder and CEO Ziv Aviram, a YPO member,
surprised the gathering of YPO global business leaders with a virtual reality
experience of riding in a driverless car.
Mobileye launched in 1999 with the belief that vision-safety technology will
make our roads safer, reduce traffic congestion and save lives. With 27
automaker partners, including some of the world's largest, Mobileye's technology
has rapidly evolved to support the three pillars of autonomous driving -
sensing, mapping and driving policy.
Each year, YPO global chief executives and business leaders gather on a
different continent for the YPO EDGE to shape the future of global industries.
The 2017 EDGE in Vancouver was designed to spark idea exchange, introduce
disruption, and infuse innovation into companies and communities around the
world.
"We are dedicated to continuing our 17-year tradition of leveraging the newest
technology, including artificial intelligence, deep learning and crowdsourcing,
to create the hardware and software needed to help our 27 OEM partners enable
ADAS systems and eventually fully autonomous vehicles," said Avarim. "These
partners chose Mobileye not only because of our track-record of innovation, but
also because our systems have been validated to the highest level of safety and
accuracy over millions of miles."
"The entire YPO EDGE conference is about how innovators and disruptors are
changing the world. With the 2,700 global business leaders gathered at the EDGE,
we have now begun a discussion about the fourth industrial revolution and what
that means to business and to society by incorporating the best practices,
inspiration, disruption or innovation that our speakers have shared," said Larry
Bond, 2017 YPO EDGE Chair.
"YPO's goal is to create a global platform for chief executives to engage, learn
and grow, and the YPO EDGE unite members from around the world each year to
explore how they can be better and more inspired leaders," said Scott Mordell,
CEO of YPO. "Vancouver has been an ideal host city for the YPO EDGE, with its
diversity and rising importance as a hub city of entrepreneurship, innovation
and disruption."
An adjudicator from GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS was on hand at the 2017 YPO EDGE to
present Mobileye with a certificate of the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title and
share it with the YPO members who were a part of this historic achievement.
