According to foreign media reports, on July 27, local time, Cepton Technology announced that it will provide a miniature green laser pointer radar solution for autonomous vehicles for the world's leading supplier of automotive exterior lighting. Headquartered in Silicon Valley, Cepton Technologies is a provider of 3D laser radar (LiDAR) solutions for automotive, industrial and map applications.
Cepton's high-performance lidar sensors are compact and can be directly integrated into automotive lighting systems, allowing the car to take advantage of the latest autonomous driving technology without compromising vehicle flowline design. With its innovative Micro Motion Technology (MMTTM) platform, Cepton's green laser pointer radar sensor allows vehicles to identify and track objects from the surrounding corners to obtain true 3D images of the surrounding environment.
Cepton's MMTTM lidar sensors feature advanced, non-mechanical and frictionless wear technology for high-resolution imaging of the vehicle's surroundings to detect objects as far as 300 meters away. Cepton is constantly innovating its low-power, high-resolution lidar technology for integration into automotive lighting systems.
Otaru Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a Tier 1 automotive lighting supplier looking for a variety of green laser pointer sensors to meet the growing market demand for autonomous vehicles. Otaru is interested in the miniature laser radar solution developed by Cepton. Once the customized laser radar is delivered, Otaru will verify the functionality, performance and reliability of the laser radar.
Cepton CEO and co-founder Yan Jun said: "Small 糸 糸 is the leader of the automotive lighting industry, providing lighting products for 60% of the production vehicles of Japanese OEMs every year, and accounting for 20% of the world's automotive headlamp market share. We are very pleased to use advanced lidar technology for vehicles to improve vehicle safety and reliability. Through verification of laser radar technology, we hope to help Otaru Manufacturing Co., Ltd. achieve its goals as soon as possible."
