SiLC

SiLC Technologies is a silicon photonics company headquartered in Monrovia, California that builds integrated single-chip FMCW (frequency-modulated continuous-wave) LiDAR — coherent 4D vision systems that capture depth, instantaneous velocity via micro-Doppler, and dual-polarization intensity from one photonic chip. Its Eyeonic product family spans Eyeonic Trace Ultra (a Class 1 laser line scanner for industrial automation and inspection), Eyeonic Vista (an ultra-long-range perimeter security and counter-UAS vision system with detection beyond 2 km), and Eyeonic Edge (high-precision 4D inspection of large objects). The company sells sensors, modules and vision chips to industrial and AI robotics, perimeter security, and mobility customers. It was founded by Dr. Mehdi Asghari and is backed in part by Honda. SiLC ships hardware, not software services: as of this profile it publishes no public developer program, API, SDK, documentation portal, or machine-readable specification.

SiLC is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Silicon Photonics, LiDAR, Machine Vision, and Sensors.

SiLC’s developer surface includes engineering blog, product news, and 11 more developer resources.
