4Sight™ Lidar for Automotive
Our lidar meets automotive industry needs
Ultra-long range automation
4Sight lidar for automotive delivers the industry’s longest detection range for precise high speed highway obstacle detection, perception and classification. Software-defined, 4Sight lidar fully meets the needs of automotive and commercial vehicle automation including the transition to EVs and future subscription models for OEMs.
Situational awareness
We enable customized performance modes for one sensor to operate in multiple environments under various driving conditions while maintaining optimal size, weight, power, and cost profile. And our sensor-based operating system moves seamlessly from highway high speed detection to highly complex, low speed environments such as traffic jams or parking situations.
Build it and place it
We engage world-class Tier 1 partners (such as Continental) for industrialization and manufacturing. And our design allows for adaptive placement options, leveraging the software configurability whether in the grill or in the roof line.
A Game Changer
-
Advanced Vision Capabilities
Our adaptive lidar accurately sees beyond the limitations of cameras and radar, identifying small obstacles such as pedestrians at over 300m
-
Reliability & safety
Our bistatic design enables the smallest low mass mirror (~1mm) with the fastest resonance (over 10kHz) leading to proven solid-state reliability
-
Integrated Intelligence
Our deterministic intelligent sensing increases the probability of detection and reduces false positive rates to increase the quality of data collection
-
Adaptability & Optimization
Our triggered performance modes enable features like highway autopilot by allowing us to detect vehicle cut-ins in traffic using our 128° wide horizontal field of view while leveraging 0.05° high resolution at fast speeds
-
Innovation & Cost Reduction
Our adaptive, software configurable lidar enables customer-centric customization and upgradability over time allowing our customers to future-proof their autonomous development
-
Redefining Architecture
Our patented bistatic architecture separates transmit and receive channels, allowing optimization for both and enabling intelligence to be introduced at the point of acquisition
Delivering the future
4Sight™ Automotive is a software-defined product customized by our partners to address the specific requirements of OEM customers. It is designed to be industrialized, manufactured, and integrated by our Tier 1 partners. Continental’s HRL131 is a current implementation of this design.
