With the Velarray H800, Velodyne delivers the optimal solid state lidar sensor for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous applications. The H800’s long-range combined with a wide horizontal field of view (FOV) detects objects early enough to enable safe stopping distances in urban driving scenarios and collision avoidance on curves and turns.
The Velarray H800’s excellent vertical FOV provides superior detection of near-range small and overhead objects, while covering sloping road corner cases. The H800’s range enables advanced highway ADAS features such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep Assist, and Automatic Emergency Braking. With a configurable frame rate, the H800 offers outstanding point cloud density for high-resolution mapping and object classification tasks.
Micro Lidar Array (MLA) is Velodyne’s groundbreaking technology that is the “engine” of the lidar sensor. The MLA is a micro-package of the core elements that makes lidar work: the laser emitters and receptors bundled in Velodyne’s ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) technology. The MLA is an eight-channel laser system miniaturized to the size of a penny. The miniaturization combined with Velodyne’s proprietary automated manufacturing process enables cost effective, high quality mass production.
