Glimpse’s core technology uses X-ray computed tomography scanning to produce high-resolution cross-sectional images of battery cells, enabling automated extraction of quality metrics through an inspection layer. The system integrates with gigawatt-hour scale production, increases throughput by 30×, and maintains a digital fingerprint of each battery for long-term reliability tracking via the secure Glimpse Portal web application.
The offering includes a CT scanning system for battery cells and the Glimpse Portal, a secure web application for monitoring detailed imaging and automated inspection tools, designed to detect defects, reduce scrap, and support continuous quality control in manufacturing.
Partnerships with scanner manufacturers and integrations with multiple battery manufacturers have demonstrated significant improvements in defect detection, production efficiency, and compatibility with high-volume cell production environments.
Glimpse raised $4M in seed funding from Ibex Mobility and Flybridge Capital Partners, plus additional backing from battery and EV industry angel investors.
