Company Overview

Centeye, Inc. is a Washington, DC-based fabless semiconductor and robotics company founded in 2000 by Geoffrey Barrows, recognized by MIT Technology Review as a Young Innovator in 2003. The company specializes in bio-inspired optical flow vision chips and sensors, drawing on techniques used by flying insects to perceive motion, altitude, and obstacles. Centeye designs custom mixed-signal neuromorphic vision chips that achieve frame rates, form factors, and dynamic ranges not attainable with standard image sensors.

Products include modular vision sensors combining optical flow, stereo depth, and proximity sensing in packages weighing as little as 1.1 gram per sensor, with field-of-view options up to 150 degrees. Centeye has developed integrated vision sensor systems for miniature and nano-class drones, including a Crazyflie-based nano drone platform of approximately 38 grams with full perception and control electronics. The Perception and Autonomy Suite provides hardware and software for autonomous flight in GPS-denied, indoor, and cluttered environments.

Centeye serves defense, research, and commercial drone markets.
