Is Tesla bluffing about full self-driving? Omer Keilaf, co-founder and CEO of Innoviz, joins IsraelTech to explain why LIDAR - not cameras - is the key to safe autonomy. ith over 20 years of experience building life-changing technologies and a background in Israel’s elite Unit 81, Omer isn’t only shaping the future, he’s already living in it.
