LeddarTech releases LeddarSteer™ digital beam steering solution

KUALA LUMPUR, May 10 (Bernama) -- LeddarTech®, a global leader in providing the most flexible, robust and accurate ADAS and AD sensing technology, has announced the official release of LeddarSteer™, a digital beam steering solution designed for LiDAR smart sensor developers and Tier 1-2 automotive suppliers.

“For well over a decade, LeddarTech has been a leader in developing sensing solutions that enable our customers to deliver high-performance ADAS and AD sensors,” said Charles Boulanger, CEO of LeddarTech in a statement.

“LeddarSteer is the only digital beam steering smart component designed for mass production with the flexibility, reliability, cost, size and performance required by the most demanding 3D sensing applications and supported by standard automotive manufacturing process.”

LeddarSteer digital beam steering offers a myriad of benefits to LiDAR smart sensor developers and Tier 1 and 2 customers, including Software-controlled on-the-fly adjustment; Multiple LiDAR applications; and, Automotive-grade solid-state technology.

Software-controlled on-the-fly adjustment comprises Frame-by-frame adjustment; Preset or customised configuration; Easy setup and interface; and, Voltage-controlled steering.

Multiple LiDAR applications which are Compatible with a wide range of LiDAR architectures; Enables one LiDAR to address multiple use cases; Field of view adjustable for various actions, including turns, exits, lane changes and slopes; and, Same LiDAR for highway and city driving, among others.

Meanwhile, Automotive-grade solid-state technology, results in a significantly higher MTBF (mean time between failures).

LeddarSteer can be seamlessly integrated into an existing LiDAR to expand the field of view or integrated into new LiDAR development.

The solution provides an enhanced signal-to-noise ratio by concentrating laser power on a small region of interest while reducing the size, cost and complexity of LiDAR components whilst maintaining or increasing the pixel count and resolution.
