Aura Vision, which began its journey with crucial early investment from the Z21 Innovation fund has raised a $1.1M seed round, from a mix of angel investors, angel funds and corporate venture funds.

The round includes an investment from the venture arm of the supplier of sporting goods and services, ASICS, who also see an opportunity to use Aura Vision within their stores. This round follows Aura Vision’s participation in the Y-Combinator Winter 2019 batch. The money will be used to fund new hires to continue development and sales of the product.

With the new funding in place, Aura Vision is now looking for team members in technical roles in Computer Vision, Front-end and Back-end development. Building on their time in Electronics and Computer Science at Southampton, where co-founders Daniel Martinho-Corbishly and Jaime Lomeli both completed their PhDs, the team is particularly keen to hear from University of Southampton graduates.

If you are interested in joining this exciting and fast growing team, get in touch with them at hello@auravision.ai.
