Shining a light on the latest optical sensors, detectors and related photonics products on the market
The new solution offers a complete set of environmental perception functions, including road sign detection, dynamic and static obstacle detection, free space detection and multi-lidar sensor fusion
The sensors can withstand increased ambient temperatures up to 75ºC. Also they provide exceptionally low temperature drift of just 2% across the entire sensing range
The laser has no rotating parts but is still able to generate a 360° line
