Design & engineering
Product design, engineering, the SpatialAI SDK and our AI models all come out of our Jersey City headquarters — minutes from Manhattan, close to the robotics and AI teams we build for.
About Us
Teaching machines to understand space
VisionLibra is the spatial AI brand of Aurora AI Ventures LLC — built on a simple conviction: Physical AI starts with spatial intelligence, and spatial intelligence should be as easy to build with as a Python import.
Our Story
From sensors to a platform
Depth sensing has been around for years — locked inside datasheets, vendor tools, and weeks of integration work. We started VisionLibra because we believe the hard part shouldn't be the plumbing. A camera that understands space should be five lines of code away from a working application, and a fleet of them should feel like one system, not a hundred devices.
So we build the whole stack: ToF sensors and cameras, the open SpatialAI SDK, depth-native AI models, and the agents that turn what a camera sees into what a business does — a Slack alert, a database record, an incident report.
They do AI. We do AI agents.

How We Build
Designed in Jersey City. Manufactured in Shenzhen.
Two locations, one supply chain — engineering where our customers are, production where the world's best electronics manufacturing lives.
Manufacturing
Our products are manufactured in Shenzhen — the densest electronics manufacturing ecosystem on earth — with the partners behind our DOMI-based ToF lineup, and orders ship from there to customers worldwide. That's how a $9 sensor and a $99 LiDAR module ship with industrial-grade consistency.
What We Believe
Principles we ship by
Developers first
pip install, five-line quickstarts, a free simulator, and honest docs. If a developer can't get value in ten minutes, we've failed.
Privacy by physics
Depth maps aren't photographs. We build people-analytics that never capture an identifiable face — privacy guaranteed by the sensor, not by a policy.
Radical honesty
Our changelog and status badges say exactly what ships today and what's still in development. No vaporware, ever.
Own the stack
Hardware, runtime, models, agents — one team, one roadmap. When every layer is ours, integration problems become our problems, not yours.
Agents, not alerts
Detection is a demo. Closing the loop — notify, log, report, act — is a product. We measure ourselves on actions taken, not objects detected.
Grow with builders
From a smart-lock hobbyist to a 100-camera warehouse fleet, the same SDK scales. Our customers' second product is our favorite metric.
Build with us
Whether you're prototyping with one sensor or planning a fleet, we'd love to hear what you're building.
