The human robotics company

We envision a future where humans and robots coexist seamlessly, facilitated by ultra-compact sensors designed for discreet integration.

Sonair is on a mission to revolutionize object detection and ranging systems for autonomous robots. Our sensors are engineered to meet stringent safety certification standards, creating a robust 3D safety shield around robots—an essential step toward enabling safe, collaborative operation alongside humans.

The Sonair team

We think about sound all the time. Sound is a wonder of nature and we just love to understand how it behaves in all kinds of conditions.

As kids we first experienced the physical laws of sound when we yelled into a mountain range and heard our own voice echoing back and forth.

Today, we know this is called reverberation and some of us have gone as deep as getting doctorates on the topic.

That’s how fascinating it is.
