Find the right gear from industry leaders providing the latest sense technologies driving the automotive market forward. Free for all attendees on the Expo Floor! Agenda: 10:15AM-10:45AM Evolution of Automotive LiDAR: From Mechanical to Solid State Slawomir Piatek / Sr. University Lecturer & Scientific Consultant / NJIT & Hamamatsu A self-driving car will likely need a LiDAR to provide 3D information at a video rate. Designing a functional LiDAR that meets automotive industry requirements is challenging. The presentation first reviews several types of LiDAR, each based either on time-of-flight or frequency modulation principle. It then focuses on a flash (or solid state) LiDAR, discussing its physics principles, photon budget, and imaging detectors. A particular attention will be paid to single-photon detection with a SPAD array.
10:55AM-11:25AM What is Spectrum-Scan™ LiDAR? Nick Langdale-Smith / VP Business Development / Baraja A brief primer on Spectrum-Scan™ LiDAR. How the AV industry is driving innovation in LiDAR scanning technologies to break through the performance, reliability & scalability constraints of legacy LiDAR systems.

12:55PM-1:25PM Autonomous Driving Requires New, Low Noise Inertial Sensors Ville Nurmiainen / Business Development Manager / Murata Electronics During the presentation we will discuss different inertial sensor parameters and how those will impact to the navigation capability. We will show that the sensors meeting the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) standard performance specification are not sufficient for safe operation of L2+ vehicles. We will also compare the state of art ESC sensors found on road today to next generation automotive inertial sensors targeted for AD/ADAS applications.
