Wayve Technologies Ltd is a British autonomous driving technology company that develops self-driving vehicle systems using an end-to-end deep learning approach. Founded in 2017 by University of Cambridge researchers, the company is headquartered in London. Its core technology is a vision-based "AI driver" that learns from camera data and driving experience, eliminating the need for pre-defined 3D maps and hand-coded rules. A notable early achievement was demonstrating a vehicle driving autonomously on unseen public roads using only cameras and its AI system. The company has raised significant funding, over $1.3 billion, from investors including SoftBank, Microsoft, and Nvidia.
