Building on the open source Robot Operating System (ROS), Apex.AI was founded in 2017 to enable developers to successfully implement complex, safety-critical software for autonomous mobility. Toyota's A.I Venture fund and Volvo are some of the big players that have invested into Apex.
Jan has been active in the field of autonomous vehicles for over 20 years among which he has been working in several positions at Bosch, Faraday Future and teaching at Stanford University.
