Sonair: Funding, Investors & Team (Sep 2026)

Sonair is developing 3D ultrasound sensors for spatial awareness. First application focus is to give autonomous robots better environmental perception and thereby enable human-robot coexistence. Sonair has the potential to replace all the ultrasound parking sensors on one side of a vehicle with one invisibly integrated Sonair device, and greatly expand the field of view. Sonair's new ultrasound technology is based on proprietary MEMS (Micro-ElectroMechanical System) sensors combined with the latest signal processing techniques from medical ultrasound imaging. We call this new technique ADAR - Acoustic Detection and Ranging.

About FundedIQ's Sonair Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Sonair is left off this page rather than filled in.
