Deepnight has successfully raised $5.5 million to transform military night vision technology using artificial intelligence. The startup aims to replace outdated hardware with a novel AI image processing model that enhances low-light imagery, making night vision goggles more affordable and effective. Current night vision technology is described as 'esoteric hardware,' which Deepnight seeks to modernize.
The funding round was led by Initialized Capital and included notable investors such as Y Combinator and Matthew Bellamy from the band Muse. Deepnight's approach combines low-light cameras with AI to produce digital night vision goggles that could reduce costs from tens of thousands to just $2,000. This innovation not only targets military applications but also has potential uses in consumer technology, such as drones and smartphones.
