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.

    Q-Free’s Marco Sinnema looks at how the commoditisation of high-quality vision-based solutions is widening their application. Machine vision technology’s entry into the ITS/traffic management sector has followed a classic top-down path. This is unsurprising given the extremely demanding performance criteria which are the standard in its market of origin, manufacturing processing. Very high image qualities combined with frame rates often in the hundreds per second range resulted in vision systems with capabi
