LeddarTech launches automotive grade Lidars for ADAS

LeddarTech’s detection and ranging technology can be integrated into standard automotive components such as headlamps, rear lamps or side view mirrors, to enable optimised advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) sensing solutions. The company’s optical detection technology can be incorporated into integrated circuits and uses semiconductor light sources such as infrared emitters and pulsed laser diodes. With a range of 150m and above, multi-segment detection and a field of view from 9° to 180°, Leddar sa

84 LeddarTech’s detection and ranging technology can be integrated into standard automotive components such as headlamps, rear lamps or side view mirrors, to enable optimised advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) sensing solutions. The company’s optical detection technology can be incorporated into integrated circuits and uses semiconductor light sources such as infrared emitters and pulsed laser diodes.

With a range of 150m and above, multi-segment detection and a field of view from 9° to 180°, Leddar says its technology overcomes many limitations of traditional fixed-beam Lidars.

    VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland says it is one step closer to creating a safe automated vehicle through upgrades made to its Marilyn robot car. The vehicle can now see through foggy and snowy conditions, navigating without stopping. Additionally, VTT says, the car can see humans through fog and avoid accidents automatically. Marilyn now has light imaging, detection, and ranging (Lidar) mounted on its roof, which the company claims enables it to see wavelengths beyond the human senses.
