• Consumer demand is driving the market for

improved safety and convenience fueling growth

for higher levels of automation

• Legislation activity is also now accelerating in

Europe and US to encourage adoption

• Additional sensors are needed to meet not only

system reliability but also the diverse needs of

multiple applications:

➢ Front, side, and/or rear view

➢ Level 1 through Level 5

➢ City and/or highway

➢ Range, Resolution, Field of View, Mounting…

LiDAR Enables Higher Levels of Automation

• LiDAR time of flight accurately measures object range & 3D shape while also

providing intensity data to detect lane markings, traffic signs…

• When combine radar, camera, and LiDAR, overall system reliability improves

via both complementary and redundant performance

LiDAR Point Cloud: can see lane markings

LiDAR, Longer Range Solid State is the Answer

Current LiDAR Technology• Traditionally available LiDAR sensors are

mechanically scanning and higher cost

• Flash LiDAR are solid state but require higher

power to illuminate the entire field of view

Advanced LiDAR Technology• Future State of LiDAR will be solid state scanning

− Higher reliability

− Smaller size

− Lower Cost

− Longer range and higher resolution

• Emerging Solid State Technology Types

− MEMS mirrors: made of silicon although still having moving parts

− Optical phase array: made of silicon and no moving parts
