SaverOne Signs Preliminary Agreement with Leading European ADAS Technology Provider for Sensor Fusion Collaboration

This Collaboration Integrates SaverOne's VRU Detection Solution into an ADAS Platform for Enhanced Road Safety

Petah Tikvah, Israel, June 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SaverOne 2014 Ltd. (NASDAQ:SVRE, TASE: SVRE)), a technology company engaged in innovative transportation safety solutions, today announced the signing of a preliminary agreement with a leading European-based automotive-technology provider, dedicated to providing sensor solutions. The collaboration will integrate SaverOne's Vulnerable Road User (VRU) detection solution with its Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) sensor fusion platform, introducing a non-line-of-sight VRU detection capability to their ADAS sensor fusion platform.  

This marks a key milestone for SaverOne's VRU solution, with its first agreement involving sensor fusion collaboration. The joint initiative will integrate SaverOne's Radio Frequency (RF) detection technology into the technology provider's sensor fusion platform, generating a fused and detailed environmental model. The combined system is expected to vastly improve the detection of Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) such as pedestrians, specifically in Non-Line-of-Sight (NLoS) scenarios. This enhanced situational awareness is intended to enable more accurate and safer decisions by the vehicle's ADAS systems. The integrated system is expected to be showcased to OEM customers at the ADAS provider's main European showroom.

Ori Gilboa, CEO of SaverOne, commented, "This collaboration represents a new and important strategic step for SaverOne's VRU detection roadmap. Integrating our highly innovative VRU detection solution into a broad sensor fusion environment with a leading automotive-sensor specialist significantly strengthens the value proposition for this type ADAS solution. Together, we are aiming to create a new concept for sensor fusion which includes non-line-of-site detection of vulnerable road users, something not available elsewhere in the market today. Together, we aim for a better and safer ADAS safety suite, and this new collaboration opens new pathways for SaverOne's growth in the automotive safety market."  

About the SaverOne VRU System

SaverOne is developing a Vulnerable Road User (VRU) solution, that has the potential to significantly enhance the performance of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) sensors through a superior ability to deal with NLoS (non-line of sight) situations as well as adverse weather conditions and low visibility. SaverOne's technology identifies the exact location and direction of movement of the VRU via their RF footprint from their cellphone signal. This safety solution enables collision avoidance by early detection VRUs such as pedestrians or cyclists in the vicinity of the vehicle.

About SaverOne's Systems

SaverOne's system is installed in vehicles to provide a solution to the problem of driver distraction, as a result of drivers using distracting applications on the mobile phone while driving, in a way that endangers their safety, the safety of their passengers and others on the road. This phenomenon is considered one of the main causes of road accidents in the world. According to the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the annual cost of road accidents just in the United States, stands at about $870 billion each year, excluding the costs of serious injury or death, with a quarter of those accidents estimated to be related to the use of the mobile phones while driving. SaverOne's technology specifically recognizes the driver's area in the vehicle and prevents the driver from accessing distracting applications such as messaging, while allowing others (e.g. navigation, calls), without user intervention or consent, creating a safer driving environment. 

SaverOne's primary target markets include commercial and private vehicle fleets, including public transportation and buses, that are interested in reducing potential damages and significant cost, vehicle manufacturers that are interested in integrating safety solutions to their vehicles, and insurance and leasing companies. SaverOne initially addresses car fleets with focus on the Israeli, European and US markets, as well as other markets around the world. SaverOne believes that ultimately increased focus on monitoring and prevention of cellular distraction systems in vehicles, in particular driven by upcoming expected EU regulations, will likely have a dramatic positive impact on the demand for its systems in the future.

The Company's strategy is to provide its technology for installation to customers in the aftermarket as well as address OEM vehicle manufacturers, to install the Company's protection technologies during the vehicle manufacturing process.
