Ibeo has developed a 6-sensor LUX laser scanner fusion system that has been seamlessly integrated into a 5 series BMW. This system provides a full 360 degree view around the vehicle. The fusion system is capable of tracking and classifying objects 360 degrees around an automobile. All of this data is essential for executing automated driving activities and for the “The Future of Driving”. It’s amazing how similar the consumerization of laser scanning is to GPS.
Thanks to Bobby Hambrick at AutonomousStuff for the tip. They are certainly positioning themselves for the future.
