Sony to Release a Stacked SPAD Depth Sensor for Automotive LiDAR Applications,
an Industry First Contributing to the Safety and Security of Future Mobility with Enhanced Detection and Recognition Capabilities for Automotive LiDAR Applications
Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation Atsugi, Japan
today announced the upcoming release of the IMX459 stacked SPAD depth sensor for automotive LiDAR applications
using direct Time-of-Flight (dToF) method, an industry first.*1
This product packs
the tiny, 10 μm square single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) pixels*2 and distance measuring processing circuit onto a single chip,
making for a compact 1/2.9-type form factor delivering high-precision, high-speed distance measurement.
The new sensor
helps contribute to safe, secure future mobility by improving automotive LiDAR detection
and recognition performance required with the popularization of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD).
