Apollo demonstrates the power of 1550 lidar technology
DUBLIN, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–AEye, Inc. (NASDAQ: LIDR), a global leader in adaptive, high-performance lidar solutions, today announced Apollo, the first product in AEye’s 4Sight
AEye CEO Matt Fisch, said, “We are pleased to announce the first product from the 4Sight Flex family a mere four months after unveiling the initial reference design. With Apollo, we are able to demonstrate the true advantage of our ultra-long-range lidar delivered in an incredibly compact form factor. This achievement underscores the scalability of our software-defined architecture.”
Apollo supports up to 120° horizontal and 30° vertical field of view, with long-range detection of up to 325 meters at 10% reflectivity and up to 6.2 million points per second (PPS). Apollo also provides horizontal and vertical resolutions within a region of interest as high as 0.025°.
Apollo leverages proven components and supply chain partners, resulting in minimized technical risk, maximized supply chain readiness, and a very competitive price for performance. As part of the 4Sight Flex family, Apollo runs on AEye’s 4Sight Intelligent Sensing Platform. This platform delivers a highly programmable lidar solution that can be customized easily for each application and can be reconfigured through software, including over-the-air updates.
Apollo samples are expected to be available for customer demonstrations in June 2024.
