Nov. 7, 2019—RoboSense announced in a widespread press release that it has won the CES 2020 Innovation Award the second year in a row for autonomous vehicle technology. RoboSense won this year’s CES 2020 Innovation Award for the first MEMS-based Smart LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) Sensor, the RoboSense RS-LiDAR-M1, winning in the Vehicle Intelligence and Self-Driving Technology category.
Per the release, the RoboSense award-winning RS-LiDAR-M1 is the world’s first and only MEMS-based smart LiDAR sensor for self-driving passenger vehicles with its own embedded AI algorithm technologies and SoC (System on a Chip). The RS-LiDAR-M1 is more advanced than traditional LiDAR, providing full data collection and comprehension. The RS-LiDAR-M1 not only collects and interprets high-definition 3D point cloud data, but also processes road data in realtime, with a built-in AI algorithm and SoC. It simultaneously synchronizes high-precision positioning output, road traffic signage, lane markings, driving areas, road curbs, and obstacle detection; tracking; and classification. Also, it is the world’s smallest MEMS-based solid-state LiDAR, providing a low-cost, high-stability, and superior manufacturability to meet automotive-grade and serial production requirements.
“We are honored to be recognized by CES for the second year in a row for our innovative autonomous vehicle technology to advance passenger vehicle acceptance and mass production,” said Dr. Leilei Shinohara, RoboSense Vice President of R&D.
The RoboSense RS-LiDAR-M1 Smart LiDAR Sensor will be on display in the Innovation Awards Showcase at the upcoming CES 2020 in Las Vegas, Nev.
