LeddarTech has announced a collaboration with First Sensor for LiDAR options
The platform provides the following benefits:
Go deeper with GlobalData
- A set of solutions which addresses the requirements of OEMs and Tier1s
- Common architectures as well as standardised components which ensure lower risk, improved production volume scalability, cost optimisation and flexibility to address multiple LiDAR applications
- A scalable platform roadmap
- The ability to leverage leading and complementary IP, expertise, and support from technology leaders
LeddarTech and First Sensor will initiate the collaboration with the development of a LiDAR Evaluation Kit, demonstrating a technical concept in a working LiDAR and creating a tool for Tier 1s and system integrators to develop their own LiDAR based on LeddarEngine technology, First Sensor APDs and additional ecosystem partners’ technologies, products, and services.
The evaluation kit will be primarily targeting automotive front LiDAR applications for high-speed highway driving such as Highway Pilot and Traffic Jam Assist.
First Sensor is a supplier of Avalanche-Photodiodes and is developing the receiver submodule based on its APDs for the LiDAR evaluation kit.
The receiver submodule leverages LeddarTech’s LeddarCore SoC and LeddarSP signal processing software to capture the reflected pulse coming from the objects in the field of view in order to provide time-of-flight data for rendering a 3D image that includes depth information.
