The lidar market is still picking up speed. We see lidar integration behind the windshield getting momentum as ultra-slim lidars are now offered by multiple suppliers. That makes it easy to keep the lidar’s view clear with the existing windshield wiper-washer system.
And the first technical standard related to lidar performance assessment was published last month. This is a major step for the automotive industry to assess and compare the performance between multiple lidar technologies and suppliers. This week we look at this increasingly major trend from a variety of angles.
We also bring you a wide-ranging interview with the fast-moving RoboSense company, founded about nine years ago by a group of PhDs from Harbin Institute of Technology. Now they’re winning major supply contracts with Chinese and international automakers.
