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.

    For some, machine vision is the coming technology. For others, it’s already here. Although it remains a relative newcomer to the ITS sector, its effects look set to be profound and far-reaching. Encapsulating in just a few short words the distinguishing features of complex technologies and their operating concepts can sometimes be difficult. Often, it is the most subtle of nuances which are both the most important and yet also the most easily lost. Happily, in the case of machine vision this isn’t the case:
