LeddarTech unveils robust, cost-effective 2D solid-state LiDAR sensor

KUALA LUMPUR, April 28 -- LeddarTech®, a global leader in Level 1-5 ADAS and AD sensing technology, has launched Leddar™ Sight, a robust, cost-effective 2D solid-state LiDAR sensor.

This LiDAR is housed in a weatherproof enclosure, using flash illumination to deliver continuous, accurate detection and range of objects and obstacles in its entire field of view, without any moving part, according to a statement.

Leddar Sight has been developed to answer the stringent needs of mobility, ITS, and industrial system developers for reliable, durable LiDAR sensing in the most challenging environments. Based on the Leddar M16 2D flash LiDAR module family’s field-proven reliability, the Leddar Sight leverages a 100 per cent solid-state design for ultimate robustness.

Tested for shock and vibration to meet the most demanding commercial and industrial applications requirements, Leddar Sight features a weatherproof casing (IP67/IP69 rated) that resists dust ingress, immersion, and pressurised water streams.

The Leddar Sight 2D flash LiDAR provides precise detection and measurement capabilities for indoor applications such as industrial automation and various outdoor applications such as autonomous navigation, obstacle detection and collision avoidance.

The sensor can be rapidly integrated into prototypes and used to collect 􀂦eld data for software development and is available in volume today to customers, system integrators, and resellers for commercial deployments.

The Leddar Sight is an ideal LiDAR solution for shuttles, robotaxis, ADVs, commercial trucks, buses, industrial vehicles, mobile robotics, and intelligent transportation systems.
