The paradigm
The combination of LED lighting with advanced signal processing has propelled the next generation of obstacle detection for driver assistance systems. The Leddar™ technology represents a technological paradigm shift for automotive obstacle detection.
LeddarTech offers the automotive industry a novel approach for obstacle detection with a complete, integrated, high-performance, affordable system capable of providing a 360° peripheral detection surrounding the vehicle for several driver assistance applications.
The Leddar™ technology platform offers multi-functional and multiple field-of-view detection capabilities that can either be integrated within the LED lighting module or independently mounted on vehicles to provide obstacle detection for short to medium range driver assistance applications:
- Park assist
- Automatic parking system
- Blind-spot detection
- Pre-crash detection for rear, lateral or frontal impacts…
Advantages of Leddar™ technology
- Same sensor can be used for multiple applications (e.g., park assist, blind spot, pre-crash)
- Accurate ranging and robust object detection
- Excellent lateral discrimination of objects
- No radio emission limitations or restrictions
- Low power consumption
- Very reliable detection and dynamic range measurement from 0 to 50 meters
- Innovative signal processing provides detection of multiple objects within the same field-of-view
- Use of LEDs (either visible or IR) for detection and ranging
- Detection in adverse environmental conditions (snow, fog and rain)
- Very competitive price positioning
- Improved vehicle aesthetics: Leddar™ technology can be concealed within lighting module
