Ouster Founders’ Vision

Our two co-founders Angus Pacala and Mark Frichtl discuss why they started Ouster and what they see for the future of lidar and autonomy. Ouster builds high-resolution 3D lidar sensors that are powering autonomy in the industrial, smart infrastructure, robotics, and automotive industries. We are a team with deep knowledge of semiconductors, optics, signal processing, computer vision, and high-volume manufacturing. Our breakthrough digital lidar technology produces sensors that are high-resolution, reliable, and affordable. We are working to make 3D sensing lidar technology ubiquitous throughout our everyday lives.
