Shares of Arbe Robotics Ltd. surged in early trading on Monday after the company announced a new automotive radar platform that integrates its perception technology with computing capabilities from Nvidia, lifting investor optimism around its positioning in the autonomous driving market.
Arbe stock jumped 20.8% in premarket trading following the announcement. At the time of writing, the stock is up around 10%.
The rally came as broader attention across technology markets remained firmly focused on CES, where major artificial intelligence and automotive technology players are unveiling new products and partnerships.
The Israel-based perception radar solutions provider said it will showcase its latest automotive-grade radar system at CES 2026, demonstrating its readiness for integration into full perception stacks used in advanced driver-assistance systems and autonomous vehicles.
According to the company, the radar platform delivers more than 20,000 detections per frame through a 2,304-channel array, generating high-resolution data designed to support advanced perception and artificial intelligence algorithms.
Arbe said the system is intended to match or exceed the performance of more expensive sensor technologies while remaining suitable for large-scale automotive deployment.
Arbe emphasised that its radar technology is designed to enable hands-off and eyes-off driving at highway speeds.
The system can detect objects at distances exceeding 300 meters, a capability the company said gives autonomous systems sufficient time to respond safely to changing road conditions.
The company added that its radar maintains reliable performance across challenging environments such as snow, rain and fog, conditions that have historically posed limitations for camera-based and optical sensor systems.
“This initiative allows us to create a new benchmark for perception in all conditions. The collaboration accelerates the adoption of safer, more reliable, and more affordable autonomous driving solutions for automakers worldwide,” said Kobi Marenko, co-founder and chief executive officer of Arbe.
At CES, Arbe plans to demonstrate several applications of its radar technology, including an AI-based Occupancy Grid developed in collaboration with Perciv AI, LiDAR-comparable performance from its high-definition radar, and integration with Nvidia’s DRIVE AGX Orin computing platform.
The use of Nvidia’s automotive computing architecture positions Arbe’s radar as part of a broader ecosystem aimed at enabling scalable autonomous driving solutions.
Nvidia’s DRIVE platform is widely used by automakers and technology companies developing advanced driver-assistance and self-driving systems.
Nvidia shares were also trading higher early Monday, rising 0.8% to $190.28, as investors looked ahead to a keynote-style presentation from chief executive Jensen Huang at CES.
The chipmaker has drawn additional support from encouraging signals around artificial-intelligence hardware demand, including upbeat commentary from Taiwan-based manufacturing partner Foxconn.
Arbe’s stock has been volatile over the past year as investors weigh the commercial prospects of radar-based perception technology in a competitive autonomous driving sensor market dominated by cameras, LiDAR and hybrid approaches.
Last month, Arbe announced a $15.7 million private placement through a follow-on offering of its Series A Convertible Bonds.
The offering expanded the company’s existing bond program, under which Arbe had previously issued approximately $30 million in June 2024.
As part of subsequent developments, bondholders approved extending the maturity date of the Series A Convertible Bonds to December 31, 2026, while also agreeing to reduce the annual interest rate from 6.5% to 4.35% beginning January 1, 2026.
Arbe said the newly issued bonds carry the same terms as the existing Series A Convertible Bonds and will trade as a single series once registered on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.
