Auto ADAS & Autonomy
The capacity to perceive and navigate in low and difficult visibility conditions has been a significant obstacle in developing fully functional driving assistance solutions.
Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicles (AV) face challenges in low visibility and adverse conditions, including nighttime, haze, and glare. 3D sensors, particularly Lidar, are essential. Lumotive’s LCM™ chip for beam steering allows for a compact, camera-like design in Lidar modules, ensuring precise and ultra-reliable performance, ultimately leading to a cost-effective total cost of ownership (TCO) for Lidar.
Robo Taxi
Robo taxis require multiple sensors to navigate. Lidars are needed to perceive and navigate safely, helping to avoid accidents. Lumotive’s LCM™ Chip for beam steering and development kits enable the creation of a lidar sensor tailored to customer requirements, ranging from field of view to range and resolution, while leveraging software-defined capabilities in a cost-effective way.
Commercial ADAS
Commercial vehicles need adequate turning clearances. Due to limited visibility from the cab, spotting objects can be challenging. Mid-range Lidars featuring a broad field of view assist vehicles in maneuvering through narrow streets and sharp corners. Lumotive’s LCM™ Chip, for beam-steering, offers a wide field of view, compact size, high reliability, and cost efficiency, making it ideal for retrofit applications. Its planar design mimics the minimal protrusion of a camera module.
Passenger ADAS & AV
Passenger ADAS L2+ vehicles are progressing with Lidar technology for surround view applications, covering functions such as Vulnerable Road User (VRU) detection, parking assistance, blind spot monitoring, and traffic jam assistance. This includes advanced features like Highway Guided Piloting and Pedestrian Automated Emergency Braking (P-AEB), supported by forward-facing Lidars that operate over distances exceeding 200 meters. Lidar systems utilizing Lumotive’s LCM™ chip for beam-steering provide highly reliable, high-performance, compact, and cost-effective solutions.
