Summary
David Karl is the Founder and CTO of Algolight, bringing eight years of hands-on experience building AI-driven sensing and autonomy systems that fuse physics-based modeling with deep learning for real-time, low-power edge deployment. Trained as an engineering physicist at Technion, he previously developed novel architectures and infrastructure as an algorithm researcher at Intel and led electro-optics and signal-processing R&D in the IDF, giving him deep domain expertise across optics, remote sensing, and embedded systems. At Algolight he spearheads integrated multi-sensor products—like the Universal Labeler—that translate 2D and 3D photogrammetric data into production-ready pipelines for detection, segmentation, tracking and scene understanding. He is notable for bridging theoretical modeling (interferometry, atmospheric turbulence, laser speckle) with production software and ultra-efficient edge inference, enabling mission-critical defense and civilian applications. Based in Israel, David combines prototype-level experimentation with scalable deployment practices, making complex sensing stacks practical in constrained hardware environments.
