Tateyama Science: Developed “360 ° Flash-LiDAR lens”: 3D sensor / panoramic lens
January 9, 2020
Tateyama Science:
Tateyama Kagaku Kogyo has developed a 360-degree (omnidirectional) panoramic lens for Flash-LiDAR.
This panoramic lens is used for a 3D spatial sensor (Flash-LiDAR ‘for human detection / robotics).
What is LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging):
It is a popular name for radar that uses laser light with good straightness instead of radio waves.
In recent years, it is an essential technology in “3D space detection in the field of autonomous driving technology and robotics”.
“360 ° Flash-LiDAR lens”: Main features
360 ° Depth image can be obtained in one unit
No need for a scanning mechanism (movable part) for 360 ° detection
Improved reliability, smaller and lighter
“360 ° Flash-LiDAR lens”: Field of application
Spatial recognition in the field of robotics,
Collision avoidance,
Identify individuals when detecting people, avoid privacy issues,
