AMD与索尼合作激光雷达
Last week, AMD announced that Sony Semiconductor Solutions (SSS) will use AMD’s cutting-edge adaptive computing technology in its latest automotive lidar reference design, and the two will join forces to launch powerful and efficient lasers for autonomous vehicles. Radar solutions. Using AMD's adaptive computing technology greatly expands the capabilities of the SSS lidar system, providing extraordinary accuracy, fast data processing and high reliability for next-generation autonomous driving solutions.
In the rapidly evolving field of autonomous driving, the need for accurate and reliable sensor technology has never been greater. LiDAR technology plays a pivotal role in enabling depth perception and environmental mapping for a variety of industries. LiDAR provides image classification, segmentation and object detection data that is critical for AI-enhanced 3D visual perception that cameras alone cannot provide, especially in low light or inclement weather. Dedicated lidar reference designs address the complexities of autonomous vehicle development with a standardized platform to enhance the safety of navigation in different driving scenarios.
Yousef Khalilollahi, corporate vice president and general manager of AMD's Adaptive Computing Group, said: "LiDAR technology is advancing at an incredible pace with its AI-enhanced perception capabilities and enables the deployment of an increasing number of applications. We are working with "Sony Semiconductor Solutions' collaboration to integrate AMD adaptive computing technology into its LiDAR reference design demonstrates our commitment to advancing technology and driving innovation in key industries."
Takayoshi Ozone, general manager of the Automotive Development Division at Sony Semiconductor Solutions, said: “This technology collaboration with AMD represents a major leap forward in our commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions for lidar applications. By integrating AMD’s adaptive computing technology into our With our LiDAR reference design, we will set new standards in performance, reliability and adaptability."
SSS LiDAR reference design with IMX459 sensor powered by AMD Zynq ultra scale+MP SoC adaptive SOC and Artix-7 FPGA will enable automakers and automotive equipment suppliers to leverage a comprehensive perception platform to navigate complex driving Scenes and identify potential hazards with exceptional accuracy. The reference design leverages AMD’s expertise in developing scalable and adaptable computing solutions to optimize the processing capabilities of SSS’s SPAD ToF depth sensor. This synergy delivers high accuracy, fast data processing and outstanding reliability, meeting the evolving needs of the automotive industry. The joint efforts of SSS and AMD will accelerate the application of lidar technology in various industries and bring new possibilities to autonomous driving systems.

This lidar company announced that it has been designated for mass production by one of the world's top truck companies
On March 20, 2024 local time, Cepton, a listed U.S. lidar company, announced that the company and its Tier 1 partner Koito
It has obtained the mass production quota for short-range lidar products from one of the world's top truck companies.
In December last year, General Motors canceled Cepton's mass production target. Subsequently, Koito launched a non-binding acquisition intention to acquire 100% of Cepton's shares. Cepton's board of directors said it will carefully evaluate the interest expressed by Koito through a special committee, but there can be no guarantee that the firm transaction related to Koito's letter of intent or any other potential transaction will ultimately be completed.
