FAQ

Have questions? Here are some common technical and integration questions we get.
What makes Apollo “software‑defined” lidar?
Unlike other lidar systems that can only be updated with hardware upgrades, Apollo’s magic is that is can be updated via software updates. As a result, changes can be made much more quickly and efficiently.
Does Apollo support behind‑the‑windshield integration?
Yes, Apollo’s small form factor at 3.5 (H) x 15 (W) x 13 (D) cm supports multiple installations including behind-the-windshield, on the roof or in the grille.
What are Apollo’s key performance specs?
Is Apollo compatible with NVIDIA DRIVE?
Yes, Apollo is a validated partner on the NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Orin ecosystem. DRIVE AGX Orin Ecosystem Vendors | NVIDIA Developer
How does Apollo fit with OPTIS?
OPTIS™ is a complete autonomous system that delivers high-resolution 3D perception of the physical world and enables real-time interpretation and responsive action. By combining AEye’s long-range, software-defined Apollo lidar technology, capable of detecting objects up to one kilometer away, with advanced computing and physical AI, we expect to deliver integrated solutions to unlock new revenue streams and enhance the operational efficiency of our customers.
