Velodyne is developing Vella, a breakthrough advanced driver assistance software solution based on its directional view Velarray sensor. Vastly superior to existing approaches that utilize camera+radar, Vella™ will revolutionize advanced driver assistance functionalities currently on the market, such as Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC).
This video showcases how Velodyne’s affordable lidar-based Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking (PAEB) solution delivers superior performance in all conditions, a decisive advantage over radar+camera-based systems. This is especially critical at night with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reporting 80 percent of pedestrian fatalities occur during dark lighting conditions.
