Solid-state LiDAR technology being fine tuned in the field

@CES ZVISION SPAD LiDAR At the 2024 CES ZVISION, unveiled their latest SPAD LiDAR – the ZVISION EZ6, on January 2nd, marking its first public appearance. Targeted for mass production within Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), the ZVISION EZ6 is a long-range, cost-effective LiDAR solution, representing a significant step towards more accessible and equitable LiDAR technology in the industry. ZVISION’s latest masterpiece ZVISION EZ6 boasts numerous advantages: The ZVISION EZ6, through its novel architectural design, attains a highly integration at the chip level in LiDAR technology. This advancement significantly lowers the EZ6’s overall cost, setting a new industry standard by dropping below the 2000 https://lnkd.in/gib7ncxT auto connected car news

Ouster Results Show Why Lidar Companies Should Look Beyond the Auto Market By Al Root Follow March 26, 2024, 4:15 pm EDT Share Resize Reprints Lidar maker Ouster reported a smaller-than-expected fourth-quarter loss. In addition, its strong sales guidance shows the benefits of its more diversified strategy compared with its peers. Lidar is essentially short for laser-based radar and can serve as the eyes for a number of things—such as a car needing to see down the highway to enable its adaptive cruise control, or a humanoid robot being trained to complete basic tasks with the help of AI. (Some of the robots seen at Nvidia’s recent event had eyes provided by Ouster lidar, according to Ouster.) Most lidar start-ups have focused on the automotive market. Size is one reason: Some 80 million light vehicles are sold around the world each year.

SENSORS: AEye, Inc. launches first #lidar solution in 4Sight Flex Family Lidar solutions provider AEye has introduced Apollo, the first product in its 4Sight Flex next-generation family of lidar #sensors. Apollo is designed to deliver range and resolution in a small and power-efficient form, for automotive and non-automotive applications. Matt Fisch, AEye's CEO, said, “We are pleased to announce the first product from the 4Sight Flex family a mere four months after unveiling the initial reference design. With Apollo, we are able to demonstrate the true advantage of our ultra-long-range lidar delivered in an incredibly compact form factor. This achievement underscores the scalability of our software-defined architecture.” Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gQmszndg #AutonomousVehicles #AV #SelfDriving #ADAS #AutonomousDriving #Automotive #AutomotiveIndustry #Transportation #Technology #FutureMobility #Sustainability #AVTExpoStuttgart #AVTExpoCA

Let's talk LiDAR vs Radar! Innoviz stands at the forefront of #LiDAR technology, driving the #AutonomousVehicle revolution forward. As we navigate the intricate landscape of automotive sensors, let's explore the key differences between LiDAR and Radar: 1️⃣ Accuracy: LiDAR's precise 3D mapping capabilities offers superb accuracy in object detection and tracking, outperforming radar systems. 2️⃣ Performance:  LiDAR operates under blue skies, darkness, or fog, making full autonomy possible even in extreme weather conditions. 3️⃣ Wavelength Reach: While radar covers vast distances, LiDAR captures intricate details at a finer scale, enhancing situational awareness on the road. 4️⃣ Cost: With advancements in LiDAR technology, the cost gap between LiDAR and radar solutions is narrowing. 5️⃣ Applications: Radar cannot capture the breadth of information that LiDAR systems perceive. LiDAR plays a prominent role in safety-critical features such as emergency brake assist and collision avoidance, bolstering road safety for all.
