It is able to detect any kind of obstacle and to assess obstacle-free spaces for safe route navigation.
SIGMA FUSION processes information signaled by its ‘senses’: a stereo camera and two LIDARs. A LIDAR, short for Light Detection And Ranging, is a remote-sensing method. SIGMA FUSION is compatible with any kind of range sensors, leveraging data from the best sensors.
Key features:
- Multi-sensor fusion compatible with any type of sensor
- Safe assessment of obstacle-free space surrounding the vehicle
- Fast environmental perception
- Real-time performance in a mass-market microcontroller
- Predictable behavior and reliability to prepare for automotive-certification process
- Tailored to all vehicle types and models
“SIGMA FUSION is a critical part of the core of the autonomous car’s brain, and can be embedded on the already certified ASIL-D automotive platform,” said Marie Semeria, CEO, Leti. “Leti will further develop this technology by integrating state-of-the-art sensor technologies, including LIDAR, radar, vision, ultrasound and time-of-flight cameras into the system. We also will transform proof of concept into certified engineering platforms in the automotive and other industries.”
