Perception silicon company Lyte has raised $165M in Series C at a $1.6B post-money valuation, led by Maverick Silicon with Fidelity participating. Lyte has now raised $272M since 2021, having exited stealth in January with $107M aggregate. Its LyteVision platform fuses 4D coherent vision, high-resolution RGB, and IMU onto a single synchronized timeline, measuring position and motion natively at the edge instead of reconstructing them in software. CEO Alexander Shpunt's framing: physical AI has a sensing problem before it has a model problem. LyteVision won CES 2026 Best of Innovation in Robotics and ships to inspection, logistics, and manufacturing customers; the new money goes to production scale, perception AI, and deployments.
