RoboSense在科技日活动上发布了其最新的固态激光雷达。智能激光雷达传感器系统(Smart LiDAR Sensor Systems)供应商RoboSense日前举行了新产品发布会和科技日活动。在会议期间，RoboSense正式推出了RS-LiDAR-E1 (E1)，这是一款基于其内部定制开发的芯片和闪存技术平台的闪存固态激光雷达，可看到360°。该公司还与国内领先的电子制造商Luxshare-ICT联合举行了新的智能制造合资企业Luxsense的揭牌仪式。RoboSense推出了E1，这是一款汽车级闪存固态激光雷达。它是一个以专用开发芯片为核心的区域阵列收发器技术的新产品平台。E1是为大规模系列生产而设计的，材料简单，没有活动部件。它在激光雷达的检测性能、成本效率、汽车级安全性和可靠性三个方面都具有优势。E1作为实现自动驾驶核心功能的关键一环，将协助合作伙伴进一步弥合智能驾驶感知的差距，提升自动驾驶车辆的全场景感知能力。E1 120°水平视场4大核心功能，使用最少的传感器确保360°无盲区覆盖区域。 Vertical FOV is designed to be 90°, to allow the perception area to cover both blind zones on the ground and lateral vision. Ultra-high frame rates of over 25Hz, capturing target objects’ motion states and predicting their moves faster. Detection range of 30m @10%, which enables better perception planning control. E1 uses RoboSense’s first in-house, custom chips for flash solid-state LiDAR platform and its first 2D electronic scanning technology. With highly integrated chips that incorporate the three core components of transmission, reception, and processing, E1 greatly streamlines the circuit design and production processes, creating the performance and cost advantages necessary for the durability and reliability requirements of blind spot LiDARs in the automotive market. To ensure product performance and rapidly improve production capacity, RoboSense launched the first and only CNAS certified LiDAR lab to analyze LiDAR and their components and developed a complementary smart manufacturing system to produce this high-tech, precision sensor. During the event, leaders of RoboSense and Luxshare jointly held the unveiling ceremony of Luxsense. Investment in the first phase of RoboSense smart manufacturing system exceeded 1 billion RMB cumulatively, over $139 million; the plant area exceeds 55,000 square meters including nearly 20 automated production lines built with highly intelligent production software to achieve a top-level production efficiency of “a LiDAR every 12 seconds” and guarantees capacity by connecting our Shenzhen, Dongguan and Guangzhou plants. Additionally, RoboSense announced a new strategic financing round which attracted top industry investors. In particular, industry investors in this new financing round include car companies with self-owned brands, emerging automakers, top luxury supercar brands, leading commercial vehicle companies, supply chain pioneers and the tier 1 institutions. Greatly empowered by capital investments from the industry, RoboSense gained unprecedented momentum and sustainability.
