Request InfoIbeo Automotive Systems GmbHHAMBURG, Germany, Oct. 20, 2020 — Ibeo Automotive Systems GmbH’s ibeoNEXT photon sensor measurement technology is suitable for driver assistance systems and automated driving. The sensor can process >1 million distance values/s. It features no moving parts, generating a high-resolution 3D point cloud for object detection, as well as an additional black and white image. The sensor offers an additionally generated intensity image, which also allows it to function as a black and white camera. The intensity image helps with lane recognition while driving. The compact and modular design of the new ibeoNEXT sensor...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 6/19/2023Lidar Testing SystemThe E8717A Lidar Target Simulator (LTS) from Keysight Technologies Inc. is a compact, automated benchtop solution that allows automakers and sensor manufacturers to test and validate autonomous...Photonics.com 10/12/2023Metalens-Based Transmit-OpticsThe portfolio of metalens-based transmit-optics from NIL Technology includes two-in-one dot projectors, diffusers, polarization-sensitive optics, and application-specific solutions.
