Canadian automotive company 5026 Magna International is teaming up with Israeli remote sensing specialist Innoviz Technologies to deliver LiDAR remote sensing solutions for the implementation of autonomous driving features and full autonomy in future vehicles.

Recognizing that LiDAR is necessary to achieve the desired levels of performance and safety, Magna selected Innoviz's technology to be integrated into its autonomous driving systems to provide a complete sensor-fusion solution to automakers.

Innoviz offers high-definition, solid-state LiDAR which enables 3D remote sensing to produce accurate real-time images of the vehicle's surroundings while meeting automotive standards and reducing cost and size. The Innoviz LiDAR can be seamlessly integrated into any vehicle and is designed to effectively manage changing light and weather conditions.

    Richard Turnock, chief technology officer of Kapsch TrafficCom North America explains what advantages its newly-opened TDM protocol can offer as a US-wide standard for tolling interoperability. The electronic tolling industry across the United States is evolving. Historically it was characterised by clusters of interoperability where a motorist may be able to use the same transponder across a large area, such as the 15-State E-ZPass system, or be confined to a single State system. Now, however, the industry
