3Laws Secures $4.1M in Seed Funding to Enable Safe Unsupervised Robot Operation in Dynamic Environments
3Laws, a leader in dynamic safety solutions for autonomous systems, has secured $4.1M in seed funding. The round is led by TenOneTen, with participation from the Amazon Industrial Innovation Fund. All pre-seed investors have chosen to maintain or increase their ownership in this round.
3Laws’ technology was originally developed at Caltech, driven by over a decade of research and development in robotics, control theory, and computer vision. This development effort was supported and facilitated by deep collaborations with industry leaders. The technology was deployed with these partners in a variety of hardware and operational settings, including drones, articulated robot arms, quadrupeds, and ground vehicles.
Now, 3Laws has developed dynamic safety software that can be deployed universally on any autonomous system utilizing existing sensors. The company’s core product, Supervisor, is flexible, scalable, and can integrate into existing autonomy stacks without requiring modifications to the underlying structure. Supervisor monitors signals from the existing autonomy software and modulates them, where necessary, to ensure dynamic safety in a deterministic and describable fashion. For development engineers, Supervisor removes corner cases and shortens development time. For operations managers, Supervisor ensures greater efficiency, improved reliability, and reduced risks. The end result is a system users can trust and deploy confidently.
