According to foreign media reports, Autoliv joins the Velodyne LiDAR's Tier-1 Program, which will use Velodyne's core 3D software technology and LiDAR ASIC patented engine. Its first application will be positioned unmanned. Taxi segmentation.

Under the agreement, Autoliv will develop and promote a scalable automotive-grade lidar sensor that uses Velodyne's core 3D software technology and LiDAR ASIC patented engine to develop and validate it with Autoliv's components. Ability to combine.

The two companies will provide core components, technology, expertise and other intellectual property rights to optimize a new generation of automotive laser radars with moderate price and performance. Autoliv will also become a major commercial and technology platform to provide better service to users.

Velodyne developed the first 3D real-time lidar sensor for self-driving vehicles and applied for a technology patent. In the past ten years, thousands of cars around the world have been fitted with Velodyne sensors, and the actual mileage has reached millions of miles. Velodyne currently provides core technology to 25 autonomous vehicle projects in more than 10 countries.

The Velodyne first-level manufacturing program offers a wide range of products to choose from based on product configuration, level of integration of product solutions, and in-region manufacturing.
