Teradar

Teradar is a Boston, Massachusetts semiconductor and sensing company founded in 2020 by Matthew Carey, Gregory Charvat and Nicholas Saiz that is commercializing terahertz-band vision sensors for vehicles, defense and security screening. Its Modular Terahertz Engine (MTE) is an all-solid-state chip architecture built from proprietary transmit (TX), receive (RX) and Teracore processing silicon, delivering 0.13-degree native angular resolution at 300+ meters in day, night, rain, fog and snow, positioned to sit alongside cameras and to displace radar and lidar in SAE L1-L5 driver assistance and autonomy programs. The company emerged from stealth in late 2025 with a $150M Series B led by VXI Capital with Ibex Investors, Capricorn Investment Group, The Engine Ventures and Lockheed Martin Ventures, and is working with global OEMs and Tier-One suppliers toward a 2028 model-year launch. Teradar is a hardware and silicon company: it publishes a marketing site and product specification sheets, but no public developer program, API, SDK, or machine-readable interface contract.

Teradar is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Sensors, Semiconductors, Terahertz, and Automotive.

Teradar’s developer surface includes YouTube channel and 12 more developer resources.

  detail: Teradar sells terahertz sensor silicon and modules to automakers and defense primes, not software — the whole public
    site is a nine-page WordPress marketing brochure whose only machine-readable surfaces are a Yoast-generated llms.txt and
    the CMS's own /wp-json/ endpoint, and api./docs./developer. teradar.com do not resolve in DNS.
