A trusted partner in Korea’s autonomous driving ecosystem, TREEZE, has joined the Autoware Foundation as a Premium Member!

TREEZE bridges the automotive industry, academia, research institutions, and regulatory bodies—bringing over a decade of hands-on expertise in transforming conventional vehicles into autonomous platforms.

As a full-stack autonomous driving solutions provider, TREEZE specializes in Level 4 autonomy for Autonomous Special-Purpose Vehicles (A-SPVs) such as shuttles, yard tractors, logistics robots, research platforms, and client-provided vehicles.

Deeply rooted in the Korean autonomous driving ecosystem, TREEZE actively collaborates with provincial governments and leading institutions such as KATECH (Korea Automotive Technology Institute), contributing to nationwide testbed programs and open research initiatives that advance interoperable mobility technologies.

TREEZE brings comprehensive expertise across the entire development pipeline—from requirements definition and software R&D to vehicle prototyping and deployment—and has already built a TRL-6+ AD stack leveraging Autoware alongside their own proprietary modules.

As part of the Foundation, TREEZE will actively contribute to multiple working groups, including the Low Speed Autonomy Working Group and the Open AD Kit Working Group, focusing on:

🔹 Enhancing perception, localization, planning, and control for low-speed environments

🔹 Sharing real-world deployment data and operational insights from their A-SPV fleet

🔹 Providing test platforms to validate and scale OpenAD Kit–based autonomy solutions

Through their membership, TREEZE will reinforce their commitment to open-source collaboration, continuing to serve the needs of the Korean ecosystem while contributing to global interoperability and the safe, scalable deployment of autonomous mobility solutions worldwide.

Welcome aboard, TREEZE — let’s shape the future of open autonomy together!
