Israeli Startup Scores $22M for 3D Imaging Sensor

December 16, 2015

A hot startup has closed a $22 million Series B financing round as it looks to make a splash worldwide with its 3D imaging sensor.

Tel Aviv-based Vayyar Imaging scored the funding in a round led by Walden Riverwood. Series A lead Battery Ventures and existing investors Bessemer Venture Partners, Israel Cleantech Ventures and Amiti Ventures also participated in the round. As a result of the latest cash infusion, the company has raised $34 million to date.

The company’s sensor technology — designed to see through materials, objects and liquids — will aim to revolutionize a range of industries. In particular, the company hopes the sensor will aid in cancer detection by allowing clinicians to see through skin and other tissues to detect breast or other cancer masses. — Elizabeth Hollis
