[Online] KGAP+ Special Edition -Take Initiative after COVID-19 with Key Players and Startups in Worldwide Innovation Bases- (Israel -Part2)2020/07/08

KGAP+ (Keihanna Global Acceleration Program Plus), an acceleration program launched in 2019 from the Keihanna Research Complex Project, will carry out a “Special Edition” program together with the global innovation partners, to consider a paradigm shift in and after the coronavirus pandemic and support startups taking challenges for innovations.

Following a series of online events where startups and support organizations in each region make a pitch or presentation, “KGAP+ Day” will be held on July 29th and 10 startups selected from the series will be pitching. The KGAP+ Day combines the finale with the beginning of a regular program of KGAP+, namely, the startups will start their journey to collaborative PoCs with Japanese companies. Supports and mentoring will be provided until the end of October.

The Special Edition #4 is pitching by Israeli startups. Around 5 startups at recommendation of IIA, Israel Innovation Authority, inspired by the previous webinar “Israel -Part1”, will present advanced technologies and unique services. Please join us as an audience!

      Seaerra develops innovative AI based solutions, enabling underwater vision by significantly improving visibility, contrast and colors in real-time. SeaErra’s products and solutions are based on patented and proprietary technology in the field of image enhancement and restoration in scattering media. The technology has been proved to substantially improve visibility and contrast of images taken in bad visibility conditions (due to water, haze, sand or fog). Recovery of these images is disruptive since it enables the usage of clear images for human use as well as automatic computer vision methods for recognition, segmentation and tracking. Methods are based on analyzing the physical image formation model and developing algorithms in order to reverse the optical effects of the scattering media. Methods work in real-time and do not require any specialized or external hardware.
